Taylor Swift Under Fire For 'Hanging Out With MAGA' After Posing For A Photo With Popular Podcast Co-Hosts

Taylor Swift has raised eyebrows after she and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, were pictured with podcasters Taylor Lewan and Will Compton.

Fans of the pop star have since taken to social media to share their opinions on the viral photos, with some even calling her out for it.

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's relationship is waxing strong, with the couple recently making their red carpet debut after dating for over a year.

Swift and her boyfriend, Kelce, are receiving massive backlash online after a behind-the-scenes photo captured them posing cheerfully with popular podcasters, Taylor Lewan and Will Compton, even though the singer previously endorsed Democratic nominees during elections.

The image emerged from Kelce's yearly Tight End University event in Nashville on Tuesday night, where Swift took to the stage and performed an acoustic rendition of her hit song "Shake It Off."

In the snap, the couple can be seen standing next to the "Bussin' With The Boys" podcasters as they all flexed their muscles and kept a straight face for the camera.

Compton and Lewan seemingly campaigned for Donald Trump when they shared a video of the now-president shaking their hands.

"Firm handshakes for The Boys and 47," they wrote on it at the time, along with an emoji of the American flag.

Now, the image with Swift has gone viral online. A Reddit post with thousands of comments read: "Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift flexing with Barstool MAGA podcaster influencer bros Taylor Lewan and Will Compton."

Several fans have shared their seemingly shocked reactions to the image of Swift and the podcast hosts.

One viral post on X read, "The fact that Taylor now hangs with MAGA folks tells me all i need to know about how performative she is, where is that 'I want to be on the right side of history' girl gone?"

Another stated, "I need Tayvis to be over so bad. It has brought nothing but [Taylor] hanging out with MAGA."

A person commented, "Taylor's on my last nerve like girl, you've gotta wrap up this MAGA wag era asap and get serious."

Another said, "TaylorSwift won't stop hanging out in MAGA hotbeds and isn't even releasing music to distract me from that fact... okay!"

It's worth noting that Lewan and Compton's political affiliations are unknown, and they interview various people on their podcast, including politicians from all parties.

Amid the heavy criticisms, some fans defended Swift, stating that she has been vocal about her political stance in recent years.

"People trying to push Taylor is MAGA, meanwhile, Trump has been throwing temper tantrums over her since 2019," a fan commented.

Another stated, "So Taylor poses with a few NFL dudes and now she's MAGA? If proximity equals politics, half of you are in trouble at family dinner for sure. Newsflash: Guilt by association isn't a personality trait. She's dating a tight end, not running for office."

"How the hell would she know that they were MAGA. This is why I want TaylorSwift to break up with him. He is going to get her into a lot of problems," a third user said.

Meanwhile, Swift and Kelce's relationship appears to be going well, with the couple showing some PDA while at the recent event.

Although the Kansas City Chiefs star was quite busy at the Tight End University event, which he co-founded alongside fellow tight ends George Kittle and Greg Olsen in 2021, he appeared smitten with the singer amd couldn't take his eyes off her.

The couple achieved another milestone in their romance as they appeared together on the red carpet for the first time since they started dating more than a year ago.

In a snap that emerged on Sunday, Swift had her arms wrapped around the NFL star's neck as she leaned in to the beaming Kelce.

While at the Tight End University event, the "Love Story" singer surprised fans with her first performance in months, following a break after the end of her highly successful Eras Tour.

NFL star George Kittle showered praises on Swift, admitting that she put on an "incredible" surprise performance at the event.

"She was fantastic. For the venue that, I think, it was maybe 1,000 people, that was the loudest 1,000 people I've ever heard in my entire life," he told Fox News. "It was an incredible experience. I think everybody had a lot of fun just watching that one live."

The basketball star went further to share details of the event, saying the singer's surprise performance was all her idea.

"Taylor could not have been kinder, more nice, and she was like, 'I think it might be fun to go sing 'Shake It Off.' And we were like, 'It'd be amazing. Twist my arm, Taylor, please,'" he added.
