Erin Andrews has conducted countless interviews throughout her career, but her latest sit-down with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes brought on a surprising new worry. Known for sharing candid, behind-the-scenes stories on her “Calm Down” podcast with co-host Charissa Thompson, Andrews recently confessed to an unexpected beauty blunder that made her self-conscious during the interview.
On her latest podcast episode, Andrews humorously admitted to feeling “terrified” about her appearance when talking to Mahomes.
She shared that, due to the scorching sideline heat, she’d applied extra layers of makeup to conceal her “wrinkles,” hoping it would hold up under the bright lights and hours of coverage.
After the intense, four-hour game, Andrews confessed to feeling sweaty and dehydrated and was fixated on whether Mahomes might be thinking, “God, she’s (bleeping) aged.” Reflecting on the moment, she joked that she felt “147 years old” under the sweltering conditions.
Andrews, who’s 46 but often appears younger, has recently found the sun to be one of her biggest sideline challenges.

On a past podcast episode, she recounted another sun-related misadventure, where her choice of outfit left her feeling like her bottom was “on fire” from the heat, leading her to wonder if a sun umbrella might be her next sideline essential.
In spite of the beauty worries, Andrews’ openness provides a hilarious look at her relatable struggles.
Whether it’s braving the sun or sideline sweat, she manages to bring humor and humanity to her high-profile role on NFL Sundays.
