Of course it all comes down to a bet to get a nude Jason Kelce tattoo.

Lauren Philpot, who got the shocking and viral tattoo that pictures a cartoon nude Kelce, told TMZ Sports the story behind it is from a bet she lost to her husband dating back to the 2022-23 season.

Philpot, who is a Giants fan, is still a fan of the six-time All-Pro and Super Bowl champ along with Kelce’s wife, Kylie.

For those reasons, she doesn’t have any regrets about the new body art, nor the three to five hours it took to get it done.

“This is who I am as a person, a bet is a bet,” Philpot said. “If I get it covered up, I still went through with it. No, I don’t care. It’s a funny story. It’s something that my husband and I like to do.”

Kelce saw the tattoo as it made the rounds on social media and initially posted on X, “I’m not sure if I should be offended or flattered.”

It wasn’t until about 30 minutes later that he made his final decision on it.

“I think it’s more flattered,” he posted, “it’s a generous bird, good-sized head.”

Philpot saw Kelce’s reaction and hopes the Eagles legend knows it is all respect.

“Although I’m a Giants fan, I have a lot of respect for the Eagles and what they are like as a team,” Philpot said. “So, who else am I going to put on my arm? Jason Kelce.”

Kelce is not the only Eagle to be tattooed on Philpot. She also has Gardner Minshew’s mustache over one of her knees.

Philpot and her husband haven’t yet decided on their bet for the upcoming 2025-26 season.

“We usually ask people, our friends, and stuff, or maybe take a poll on Facebook,” she said. “I am open to it, whether it’s a tattoo or if I have to take [my husband] somewhere, vice versa. I’m open to whatever.”
