What did Bill Maher say about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce?
During the March 7 episode of Real Time With Bill Maher, he made a sarcastic remark about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship.
While discussing President Donald Trump’s foreign policies, he took a swipe at Swift’s relationship. The comedian said, “This world is so upside down now. It took [President] Trump three weeks to break up with Ukraine, and, Mexico, and Canada.” He further added, “And yet, Taylor Swift has [had] the same boyfriend for over a year.”
Though he did not mention Kelce by name, the joke seemed to be directed at the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, whom Swift has been dating since the summer of 2023. This means the couple is approaching two years together. Previously, Swift was in a six-year relationship with British actor Joe Alwyn, which ended in April 2023.
Maher’s comment quickly spread across social media. Many users criticized him for making a joke about Swift’s personal life. One user wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Taylor Swift ‘humor’ is low hanging fruit. Boo, Bill.” Another user commented, “It’s neither original nor funny. It’s sexist and also rude. But I guess that’s par for the course with this man.”
On the other hand, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship appears to be going strong. As Page Six reports, the couple recently took a private vacation to reconnect after a busy year. While the exact destination and duration remain unknown, a source revealed they had a great time together. Since returning to the U.S., Swift and Kelce have kept a low profile. Meanwhile, speculation about a possible engagement continues to grow. However, neither of them has addressed the rumors.
