Taylor Swift fans slam Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend, she responds to ‘backlash’
Everyone seems to have an opinion on the budding relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce.
The fierce Swift fanbase – often referred to as Swifites – has predominately supported the musician’s courtship with the Kansas City Chief’s tight end. Some have even gone the extra yard (albeit out of bounds) to tell Kelce’s ex-girlfriend that there’s a new queen in town, writing nasty comments on her social media.
Kayla Nicole, a journalist who dated Kelce on and off for five years, seemingly addressed the hate she’s been receiving in a video shared to Instagram. She started by saying, “It’s also been really important for me to use my platform not to create division, but to elevate and unite women. Black women, specifically. So I prepared a letter, and would like to share it with you today.”
“Dear Black girl,” Nicole, 31, began. “They may call you a traitor for falling in love. You’ll hope the ones closest will protect you. But you will quickly find out that people don’t protect what they don’t value. They’ll say you’re too much. Too provocative. Too boisterous. Too outspoken. And in the same breath, tell you, that you’re not enough. Not successful enough. Not wholesome enough. Maybe not even intelligent enough. They’ll say you deserve the backlash and embarrassment. Because of your blackness, you should have known better. They’ll even try to tie your value to your net worth,” she continued.
In Nicole’s prior Instagram post to the video, fans of Swift hurled insults, writing things like “Sorry, sis. You can’t compete with a legend like T-Swift. You’ll be taking the L every time,” and “Taylor Swift would never post anything like this. Why would any man wife this? Ok, nice to look at but you really want this as a wife? Posting like this for all the world to see? I say no thanks.”
