​During the conversation, Travis, who is all set to tie the knot with pop star Taylor Swift, jokingly asked Colin, "How nice is it to be the less famous person in the relationship?"

​Colin, who is married to one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood, Scarlett Johansson, quickly replied, "Huge relief. Really."

​The Weekend Update co-anchor on NBC's Saturday Night Live explained that fans often approach him more because his wife feels less approachable due to Scarlett's fame.

​"It's really funny because I feel like ... I'm probably almost approached more because she's less approachable," he noted. "Because I'm on TV, I have like a lesser ... people are just like, I'm in their living room, so they're just like, 'Hey what's up man, how's it going?'"

​Another moment which Colin noted is how fame has affected simple things like ordering food. He said that when Scarlett orders at restaurants, workers become distracted after recognizing her.

​"We'll open the sandwich and nothing is [right]," Collin recalled. "It's really funny. It's like bread and just, like, a pickle."

​Colin then added that he and Travis could relate to each other because of their famous partners, to which Travis responded, "I'm on the team. I'm here for it."

​It is pertinent to mention that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift's forthcoming nuptials will take place in New York. The pair announced their engagement last year in August after two years of dating.
