“They’re just talking about gossip things and you’re like, ‘So what about the play?'” Football fan Kelly Clarkson slammed NFL’s coverage of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: https://t.co/C0NTEa7vLu pic.twitter.com/7n6k7f1mBk

The singer sat down with Saturday Night Live star Bowen Yang on her show to talk about Taylor and her boyfriend’s surprise appearance on the long-running sketch comedy show. While she thought it was “hilarious” how SNL was able to incorporate Swift and Kelce into a skit, she didn’t feel the same way about the NFL’s coverage.
“It’s not hilarious how it is literally taking over the NFL for people that like watching sports now. It’s like you’re watching Housewives while you’re watching,” she said. “They’re just talking about gossip things and you’re like, ‘So what about the play?’ But they’re taking over.”
While Clarkson doesn’t think Swift and Kelce’s romance belongs on the NFL network, she felt as though SNL was the perfect outlet to discuss their budding love story.
After her looney fanbase caught word of what she said, they started attacking her on social media.
She then backtracked on Instagram with a post denying dissing the couple. #lovewins

“I did not bash anyone’s romance. I am pro romance… I just said I want to watch football when I tune in to watch football. Seems like an appropriate request.” pic.twitter.com/h6J8P39B4O
