In a delightful detour from sports and celebrity gossip, the Not Gonna Lie with Kylie Kelce podcast hosted singer Michael Bublé for a discussion that quickly devolved into a surprisingly competitive confession of “Disney Adult” status, revealing the extraordinary lengths to which celebrities go to experience the magic of the parks.
The conversation, which took place during the “More Sh*t Monday” segment, offered a candid look at the personal lives of both the host and her famous guest, confirming that even A-listers cannot resist the pull of the Mouse.
Bublé’s Castle Confession
The segment began with Kylie Kelce asking Michael Bublé if he was a “Disney World” or “Disneyland” person. While the Grammy winner downplayed his fandom at first, he then dropped the ultimate Disney-fan flex: his honeymoon.
“I am enough of a Disney adult that on the honeymoon my wife and I on our honeymoon slept in the castle,” Bublé confessed.
He was referring to the exclusive, highly coveted Cinderella Castle Suite at Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, a room that cannot be booked by the public and is typically reserved for promotions or VIP guests. Bublé admitted the obsession was more his than his wife’s, noting, “It was more me who’s so nerdy. I love it.” He even mentioned having the “glass slipper,” presumably a souvenir from the royal stay.
This surprising revelation established Bublé as a top-tier fan, proving that even a global superstar can be a dedicated Disney enthusiast.
Kylie Kelce’s Guided Tours
Kylie Kelce, host of the podcast, was quick to match his fandom with stories of her own family’s deep connection to the parks. She revealed that her family, including her famous brother-in-law Jason Kelce and his wife, visit Disney World maybe “twice a year,” relying on a trusted inner circle to navigate the crowds.
Kylie confessed that their Disney experience hinges on a private guide, Mr. Anthony, who is now a “staple” in their family’s Disney happenings. The children, she noted, refer to him by name and immediately ask if they’ll see him when a trip is announced.
The use of guides, she explained, is essential for a celebrity family but presents its own set of comical problems. The guides wear the distinctive Disney cast member vest, which immediately draws attention. “The second they see that vest, they’re like ‘Who is Austin? Who is who’s with him? This must be some,'” Kylie remarked, admitting she often tells her guide, “Don’t go so close to me, I’m trying to be inconspicuous.” She confirmed they use multiple guides, including a “Miss Francesca” for bigger groups, who are all “there to make magic and they freaking do.”
Bublé chimed in, revealing his family uses a guide named Mr. Austin, leading the two celebrities to realize their guides are likely all friends—a testament to the tightly knit subculture of the park’s VIP services.
The Disney Connections
The episode concluded with one more surprising Disney confession, proving the personal connections run deep in both their worlds. After discussing how Kylie’s guide, Mr. Anthony, met his wife working in the parking lot, Kylie shared a personal connection to a character performer.
She jokingly mentioned going to college with a girl who was “very good friends with Ariel,” winking to imply the friend was the actress portraying the famous Disney princess. Bublé immediately understood the “drift,” laughing at the secret world of character performers and the need to protect the magic behind the scenes.
The podcast ultimately confirmed a delightful truth: for celebrities like Michael Bublé and Kylie Kelce, the biggest luxury isn’t a private island—it’s the ability to enjoy the childhood fantasy of Disney, even if it requires a castle suite on their honeymoon or a well-known guide to cut through the crowds. The intimate conversation provided a funny, warm, and highly relatable look at the personal life behind the celebrity curtain.
