Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce dismisses claims that he created the fade, calling it "absolutely ridiculous" and criticizing The New York Times for wrongly crediting him with the hairstyle at the start of Black History Month. The Times faced backlash for whitewashing the style's origins in Black culture, with critics like Shannon Sharpe and Jemele Hill calling out the lack of cultural competency. Kelce emphasized that he didn't invent the fade and urged for proper credit to be given where it's due, while also making light of the situation.
