Drew Barrymore showered Jason Kelce with flowers backstage at WrestleMania in Philadelphia.
The actress, Kelce, and his former teammate, Lane Johnson, were all guest celebrities in WWE’s two-night celebration through April 6 and 7 at Lincoln Financial Field.
After the event, a video surfaced of Barrymore, in character as Flower Power, meeting Kelce and Johnson backstage. She presented Kelce with a gold WWE replica belt before covering him with flowers.
“I am Flower Power,” she said as she entered the room. Playing along with the character, Kelce said, “You look incredible.”
“Thank you very much,” Barrymore replied. ‘Flower Power would dress up to present you with this (belt) that has been everywhere. It was at the Super Bowl, but it has to come home to you, Jason and Lane, and come home to Philly.’

The retired Eagles center accepted the belt and thanked Barrymore for delivering it.
“I love this, Flower Power, thank you for delivering the golden belt to WrestleMania,” Kelce exclaimed before they broke character. Barrymore was the first to break as she introduced herself and towered over the former Eagle and veteran offensive tackle.
After exchanging introductions and hugs, Barrymore asked Kelce what his ring name would be, to which he replied “Hibernating Jason.” After agreeing that they would make a good tag team, Barrymore showered the flowers on Kelce.
‘The Rock gave me this fanny pack and I want to just (sprinkle petals on Kelce,)’ she said as she performed the playful ritual. “Remember I told you that you wanted to be surrounded by nature?”
“Oh, please sprinkle me,” Kelce said, laughing.

Kelce returned to the home of the Eagles for WrestleMania after retiring from the NFL in March
Kelce and Johnson emerged from the stands in luchador masks during Rey Mysterio and Andrade’s match against Santo Eskobar and Rey’s son Dominik. With their identities hidden, Johnson grabbed a stolen chair away from Dominik before Kelce threw him against the ring post and back into the squared circle.
From there, Rey executed his ‘619’ finisher and pinned Eskobar for the win. Johnson and Kelce then took off their masks as the Philadelphia crowd erupted upon seeing them back in the home of the Eagles.
In March, Kelce announced his retirement after 13 seasons in the NFL, all of which were in Philadelphia. On the other hand, Johnson was drafted by the Eagles in 2013 and is entering his 12th season in the league.
