Blake Lively agrees there could have been more magic in the pants.
Jason Kelce and his brother Travis Kelce recently shared their reaction to Blake’s 2005 film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants for the first time, with the former Philadelphia Eagles center expressing his grevience with the lack of magic in the pants. And the longtime BFF of Travis’ girlfriend Taylor Swift admitted he wasn’t too far off.
“@jasonkelce being a natural investigative journalist, sniffling out the hiding truth,” Blake wrote on her Instagram Story on Oct. 18, over the New Heights podcast clip. “Author @ann_brashares shared with us when making the movie that she actually added the pants after the book was written because she was given the note to add a ‘magical element.’ Mind you, this is when Harry Potter hit, so everyone was looking for magic in youth books.”
The Gossip Girl alum added, “She used the pants as a tangible item to illustrate the sometimes inexplicable magic of the female bond. One that invisibly connects us, near or far. And then you have the Traveling Pants.”
