Kylie Kelce has hit a significant milestone in her podcasting career.
On Tuesday, January 14, the 32-year-old wife of former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce took to Instagram to announce her podcast Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce was nominated for an iHeart radio award. The award is especially impressive as Kylie's podcast debuted just last month on Thursday, December 5.
The Pennsylvania native posted an Instagram Reel, saying she was shocked by the nomination and thanking listeners for tuning in.
"Not sure how this happened, but this show, the one you are currently watching or listening to, Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce, has received its first award nomination," she began. "NGL has been nominated for best emerging podcast at the 2025 iHeart podcast awards. Thank you to the NGLers who have tuned in and have enjoyed the show thus far. I know that it's for emerging show, but this is very early for awards talk. Are we sure that's like legal?"
Kylie's podcast has succeeded since the start, even briefly dethroning Joe Rogan's last month for the #1 spot on streaming platforms. However, the media personality confessed that there was another podcast she felt deserved to win this award.
"You know I'm always gonna be honest with you guys: there are a number of podcasts obviously nominated in this category. I have to tell you, in spite of my entire production team shaking their heads while I say this, So True with Caleb Hearon. I just can't explain how much I enjoy when those clips pop up on my TikTok," Kylie admitted. "I outwardly cackle and often cry. I have to say it: I think that's where that should be headed. There's no fan vote, so I have no way of influencing that whatsoever, but I appreciate the love nonetheless."
Fans took to the comment section to express their excitement for Kylie.
"I love this so much. I love you elevating the person you think deserves to win the category while in equal measure being appreciative for the nomination. This is perfect❤️," one fan noted.
Another fan wrote, "can we get @calebsaysthings on NGL because I think you two would be sooo funny together."
"Girl, how did you not think was gonna happen????? You are uh amazing and so real!! Love all of this for you ❤️," a third fan gushed.
Kylie is currently pregnant with her and Jason's fourth child. The couple are already parents to daughters Wyatt, 5, Elliotte, 3, and Bennett, 1.
