Amidst the Kansas City Chiefs’ recent struggles, the internet has found a target in Taylor Swift, the girlfriend of Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce. Despite the team’s challenges on the field, some fans and commentators have shifted the blame to Swift, drawing comparisons to Yoko Ono, who was famously associated with The Beatles’ breakup.
Social media erupted with criticisms, with users likening Swift to Yoko Ono and suggesting that she is a distraction for the Chiefs. Even some commentators, including Skip Bayless and Craig Carton, hinted at Swift’s relationship with Kelce as a potential cause for the team’s performance.
Swifties, fans of Taylor Swift, pushed back against the claims, deeming them “ridiculous and pathetic.” They pointed out the absurdity of blaming a woman for a sports team’s struggles and emphasized that Swift has no influence on the Chiefs’ on-field performance.

Kelce and Swift went public with their relationship in September, and since then, Swift has been a visible presence at Chiefs’ games. Despite the attention she receives during broadcasts, Swift expressed in an interview that she is there to support Travis and has no control over when she appears on camera.
The controversy surrounding Swift’s alleged impact on the Chiefs has ignited discussions about the unfair tendency to blame women for men’s failures, highlighting the sexist nature of such accusations. Despite the criticism, Swift remains a steadfast supporter of Kelce and the Chiefs.
