Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce turned their “New Heights” podcast into one of the biggest success stories after launching the show in 2022. The brothers built a massive audience that reached far beyond football and helped make them among the highest-paid podcasters in the world.
However, the Kelce family has another podcast star as well: Jason’s wife, Kylie Kelce.
Kylie delivered a memorable podcast moment when she teamed up with the Backstreet Boys, the best-selling boy band in history, to recreate one of television’s most recognizable comedy scenes.
Jason Kelce’s Wife Kylie Recreates “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” Scene With The Backstreet Boys
Kyle and the legendary band recreated the “I Want It That Way” cold open from “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” Season 5, Episode 17, titled “DFW.”
That scene became one of the most shared sitcom moments ever, largely because Detective Jake Peralta, played by Andy Samberg, turned a police lineup into a performance.
The scene started with a witness trying to identify his brother’s murderer. The witness, Gwen, explains that she only heard the killer singing “I Want It That Way” in a bathroom.
As a result, Peralta instructs each suspect to sing the opening lines. The lineup follows along perfectly, with every suspect joining the performance before number 5 finishes the sequence by hitting the famous high note. The witness then identifies number 5 as the killer.
In their recreation, Kylie stepped into Peralta’s role, while Nick Carter, AJ McLean, Brian Littrell, Howie Dorough, and Kevin Richardson filled the lineup as the five suspects.
After the musical performance wrapped up, she delivered Peralta’s famous reaction, saying, “Chills, literal chills.”
Since the Backstreet Boys originally recorded the song, having them perform the sketch added another fun layer.
Looking at Kylie’s career, she has built an impressive podcast career with “Not Gonna Lie.”
She started it in late 2024, and it quickly connected with listeners. She then landed multi-million-dollar partnerships with major brands, including General Mills, Dove, Toyota, and YouTube TV.
That steady rise has turned her into one of the most recognizable voices in sports media. Back in 2025, Sports Illustrated recognized that impact by naming Kylie among “The 50 Most Influential Figures in Sports” under its influencer category.
However, that’s just a part of Kylie’s ventures. Away from the studio, she continues coaching field hockey at her alma mater, Lower Merion High School in Pennsylvania.
In addition to her role at Lower Merion High School, Kelce is a prominent ambassador for the sport and frequently serves as a special guest coach at regional youth events.
Right now, Kylie is focused on her family life with Jason and their four daughters, coaching, and podcasting.
