Angel Reese Fires Back at Taylor Swift’s Fans Criticizing Kayla Nicole’s Podcast Appearance
In an unexpected twist of events, Angel Reese has taken to social media to address the backlash she received from Taylor Swift’s fanbase regarding her recent podcast collaboration with Kayla Nicole, ex-girlfriend of NFL star Travis Kelce. In a bold response, the WNBA athlete tweeted a sharp retort: “hating pays too,” clearly unbothered by the criticism.
This public spat comes after Reese appeared on Nicole’s podcast, “Unapologetically Angel,” where the conversation revolved around Nicole’s relationship history with Kelce and the dynamics of her friendship with Brittany Mahomes. Swifties were quick to pounce on Reese, suggesting she leveraged Nicole’s past with Kelce to boost her podcast’s viewership.
In her conversation with Nicole, Reese delved into the social media fallout, which has been aggressive in the wake of Nicole’s comments about her breakup with Kelce. The dialogue touched upon not just their romantic history, but also the challenges Nicole faces amid her former partner’s new high-profile romance with Swift.
During the episode, Kayla Nicole opened up about the emotional toll of their split, emphasizing that while they ended on amicable terms, it’s nearly impossible to maintain a friendship due to Kelce’s current relationship. Reflecting on their past, she mentioned, “That was a good time in my life,” affirming her respect for Kelce while acknowledging the complications introduced by his new relationship.
The podcast episode ignited a fiery debate online, with many Swift fans targeting Nicole for her association with Kelce. Despite the negativity, both Reese and Nicole have proven to be resilient in the face of online scrutiny. Nicole has previously comebacked against harsh comments about her appearance, stating, “YOU WILL NEVER MAKE ME HATE ME” in response to one particularly aggressive critic.
Reese herself has faced her share of detractors, especially regarding her on-court rivalry with Iowa star Caitlin Clark. Yet, in the latest episode of online drama, Reese’s clapback seems to indicate she is more than ready to take on whatever comes her way, using the moment to remind everyone that, in the world of social media, even negativity can have its benefits.
As speculations continue about the relationships and rivalries in the spotlight, one thing remains clear: both Angel Reese and Kayla Nicole refuse to be silenced by the backlash, standing strong amid the chaos.
