Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce Relationship a Marketing Stunt? Kansas City Chiefs Owner Says No
Kansas City Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt finally responded to the months-long accusation that the relationship between tight end Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift is a marketing stunt. During a recent interview, he downright said these rumors are false.
"It was purely organic," he said as he sat down with Mad Money's Jim Cramer. "When they first started dating, there were a lot of people saying, 'Oh, it's a marketing stunt,' but no, it's very real."
However, Clark did admit that the last few months had been very good for his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, telling Kramer, "It's been a very interesting-very fun year having the two of them dating." He then added, "The attention that's been focused on the Chiefs-our female audience has grown leaps and bounds."
As the rest of the world was gushing about the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce romance, his team received some extra publicity thanks to it, with viewership going up, and so did fan attendance to every Kansas City Chiefs game, whether in the road or at home at Arrowhead, as fans buy tickets in the hope of catching a glimpse of the Grammy winner.
"We're so happy for Travis Kelce and Taylor and their relationship," the Kansas City Chiefs owner added. "I've had a chance to meet her at one of the many games that she's attended this year and she's just as sweet as she can be."
Taylor Swift was present during the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills game last Sunday to cheer Travis Kelce on, with the Chiefs escaping New York with a narrow victory and advancing in the NFL Playoffs.
Conspiracy Theories Continue To Hound Taylor Swift
With her success in her recent album sales, her Eras Tour, and romance with Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift seems to be on top of the world. However, this success also attracted some weird conspiracy theories from supporters of another person with a cult-like following, Donald Trump.
Kandiss Taylor, a former Republican MAGA candidate from Georgia and avid supporter of the former president, who previously lost her election bid, accused the "Love Story" singer of practicing witchcraft and "casting spells."
"Did you really just praise your fans for making videos with your music and 'casting spells' @taylorswift13?" said the Trump-backed former Georgia gubernatorial candidate on X. "I know you've claimed to love Jesus. I know you claimed to be a Christian. Now, you've not only drifted and backslid. You're influencing innocent minds to be enticed with the dark side of spirituality. I am so beyond disappointed."
"He can remove His hand and leave you to the witchcraft and your own devices. Let's see how much Lucifer cares about you or your career. I promise. He doesn't," the Trump loyalist added. This post received much backlash soon after, with many pointing out that the accusations were baseless and that she did not have any evidence.
