Haverford’s Kylie Kelce took home Podcast of the Year at the recent 30th Annual Webby Awards and made sure the Eagles got their moment in the spotlight too.
Kelce, wife of former Eagles center Jason Kelce, earned the honor for Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, a podcast that has built a devoted following through candid conversations and relatable takes on family life, sports, and culture.
Countless celebrity guests have appeared on the podcast, including Michelle Obama, Kelly Clarkson, Demi Lovato, Elizabeth Banks, Jennifer Garner, and Meghan Trainor.
The ceremony, held at Cipriani Wall Street in New York City and hosted by comedian Josh Johnson, brought together celebrities, creators, and digital personalities to celebrate the year’s biggest online achievements.
Pete Davidson, Shonda Rhimes, Atsuko Okatsuka, Machine Gun Kelly, Tony Goldwyn, and Derrick Johnson were among those in attendance to accept and present awards.
Actor and comedian Jerrod Carmichael presented Kelce with the award, praising her for having the “wit of a comic, passion of an athlete, and compassion of a mother.”
Keeping her acceptance speech short and true to the Webby Awards’ signature five-word format, Kelce enthusiastically told the audience, “Women supporting women. Go Birds.”
The moment immediately resonated with Philadelphia sports fans and Eagles supporters online.
