Travis Kelce is reportedly furious after comedian Joe Koy made a joke about his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, at the 81st Golden Globe Awards. The NFL star is said to be on his way to the ceremony to confront Koy, according to an anonymous source.
Koy’s joke, referencing the abundance of camera shots on Swift during NFL games, did not go down well with the singer or her fans. Swift gave a deadpan reaction, but many viewers compared the situation to the 2022 Oscars ceremony, where Will Smith slapped Chris Rock for making fun of his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith.
Kelce and Swift have been dating for six months and are considered one of Hollywood’s hottest couples. They have been open about their love for each other and have spent the holidays together and introduced their families
.
Swift recently spoke about her relationship with Kelce in an interview, saying that they are able to live a relatively normal life as a couple. She also praised their shared love of music and their ability to appreciate the little things in life.
The Golden Globes ceremony was the first since the Hollywood Foreign Press Association was dissolved in 2023. The organization was plagued by accusations of racism and sexism, and the ceremony was not televised in 2022.
The new-look Golden Globes introduced two new award categories, “Cinematic and Box Office Achievement” and “Best Musical or Comedy Film – Animated.” However, the ceremony was overshadowed by the Kelce-Koy drama.
It remains to be seen whether Kelce will actually confront Koy at the Golden Globes. However, the incident is sure to add to the speculation about the future of the awards show.
