BOCA RATON<\/a> \u2014 Bianca Sanabria Serna has a lot going on at the moment. From commercials to print advertisements to a musical to a lead role in a short film, the 11-year-old Bak Middle School of the Arts<\/a> theater major is truly living the life of a showgirl.<\/p>\n

A few months ago, Bianca\u2019s agent presented her with a casting call for a commercial for the sports hydration beverage Recover 180. It cryptically mentioned a celebrity with the initials \u201cTK\u201d would be starring in it.<\/p>\n

A diehard Taylor Swift<\/a> fan, Bianca had a hunch \u201cTK\u201d was code for Travis Kelce<\/a>, a tight end on the Kansas City Chiefs. After submitting an audition tape, the sixth-grader received an email she had booked the part, and it was revealed that her instincts were correct. \u201cTK\u201d was in fact Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

\u2665 From Boca to Buccan<\/strong>: Taylor Swift\u2019s love story has a Palm Beach County chapter<\/a><\/p>\n

Filmed on June 10 at a hotel only 10 minutes from Bianca\u2019s Boca Raton home, the commercial is set at a news conference for the beverage. Travis Kelce is standing at the podium fielding questions from a room full of kid journalists.<\/p>\n

Bianca, who plays one of the reporters, had a chance to take a stab at all the lines in the script. In final editing, the producers used her take of her favorite line: \u201cWhat can you tell us about this new relationship?\u201d<\/p>\n

And Bianca was well aware of the meaning behind the words.<\/p>\n

\u201cSince he was dating Taylor Swift, now engaged, it was really funny to me. In the commercial, he was actually \u2018dating\u2019 the sports drink,\u201d she said. \u201cI really loved the play on words.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bianca’s mom is a former television news reporter<\/h2>\n

Conveniently, Bianca\u2019s mom, Carolina Serna, is a former television news reporter, so she helped her rehearse and run lines to prepare for the part.<\/p>\n

Acting is a family affair. Bianca\u2019s 9-year-old brother Valentino is also in the commercial as a background actor.<\/p>\n

During the off-season, Kelce is known to spend time in Palm Beach County<\/a> working out with Boca Raton trainer Andrew Spruill. In the weeks leading up to filming, Kelce and Swift were spotted out on a couple of dinner nights in the area, including at Buccan<\/a> in Palm Beach on June 4 and Harry\u2019s Bar and Restaurant<\/a> in West Palm Beach on May 23.<\/p>\n

Bianca made friendship bracelets in Chiefs\u2019 colors that spell out \u201cTavis\u201d for Kelce and Swift. She packed them in zip-locked plastic bags with stickers, lyrics, and candy and gave him the gift on set.<\/p>\n

Although Kelce was present for only about 20 minutes, Bianca said he was gracious with his time. They filmed the scene efficiently and professionally, and he autographed her press credential from her wardrobe for the commercial.<\/p>\n

Bianca’s message to Travis Kelce: ‘Please tell Taylor I said ‘hi’ ‘<\/h2>\n
