‘You guys hate me’ – Taylor Swift acts as peacemaker for Kelce family feud with Joe Buck

Taylor Swift was in the house for the Kansas City Chiefs divisional round win over the Houston Texans.

But she wasn’t just there as a fan.

She was also playing peacemaker.

Before the game, cameras caught Swift chatting with ESPN’s broadcaster Joe Buck.

What were they talking about?

We’ll never know.

But it’s safe to say, the pop sensation and superstar girlfriend of Travis Kelce, was trying to keep the peace between Buck and the Kelce household.

Why is that?

Because Travis’ sister-in-law, Jason’s wife Kylie, was raised to hate Buck, as a rite of passage as a Philadelphia native.

The longtime play-by-play commentator, doesn’t have a huge approval rating in the Kelce house and Buck knows it.

“You guys f—ing hate me, I know,” Buck said on Jason Kelce‘s new late night talkshow, They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce.

“Well, I was raised in a house where I was taught to dislike Joe Buck,” the mother of three said.

“I mean… I was taught that by my father,” she continued. “I very much recognize the pattern in which it seemed as though he was always cheering for the other team.”

She was asked what she now thinks of Buck, after having met him, and jokingly said she was “annoyed” to learn that he was actually a nice guy.

“It completely negated everything I’ve been taught,” Kylie said.

Maybe Swift didn’t have to play as much peacemaker as she originally thought.

But if there is anyone who can defuse hate and bring people together, it’s Swift.

The cameras also caught WNBA star, Caitlin Clark, sitting next to Swift in her suite.

And they got to watch as the Chiefs made it past the Texans.

The 2023 and 2024 Super Bowl champions came out 23-14 winners, and Swift’s partner, Kelce, made NFL history.

He became the first player to record a ninth 100-yard game in the postseason.

The Chiefs will now play in the Conference Championship on Sunday, January 26 against either the Baltimore Ravens or the Buffalo Bills.

From there, the winner heads to the Super Bowl, and Swift will no doubt be there every step of the way supporting Kelce and the Chiefs as they look for their third consecutive Super Bowl.
