Comedian sparks huge backlash after joke made about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce

A comedian has sparked outrage after making a controversial joke about NFL superstar Travis Kelce and popstar girlfriend Taylor Swift.

Ever since rumours of their relationship began circulating in late 2023, Swift and Kelce have undoubtedly become one of the biggest celebrity relationships in recent years.

Due to Swift's massive popularity, her relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs player has brought millions of more fans to the NFL to support Kelce.

And now, these fans have hit out at a comedian who decided to make an X-rated joke about the couple while performing on a Netflix special.

American comedian Hannah Brenner caused the outrage while appearing on the Netflix comedy special 'Torching 2024: A Roast of the Year'.

During the show, Brenner made a controversial joke comparing Kelce's relationship with Swift with the Luigi Mangione's murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York last month.

"Luigi is so hot right now," said Brenner

"Who knew, besides Travis Kelce, that you could become so popular with women by shooting loads into a billionaire?"

The live audience in attendance immediately reacted to the joke with groans and gasps as, although some laughed and applauded, the majority of the audience clearly did not appreciate the comment.

And this sentiment was shared online, as many fans of both Kelce and Swift shared their opinions on Brenner's joke after watching it on Netflix.

Reacting to a clip of the 33-year-old's joke on X, one fan wrote: "I feel like in order to land an inappropriate joke, it has to actually be funny."

Another agreed adding: "That's just disgusting, I really liked Brenner, but this is just disappointing and not funny at all."

While a Swift fan pointed out: "People love to reduce Taylor to the men in her life, but to do it about her as a sexual object is so gross."

And a Chiefs supporter wrote: "Travis Kelce just keeps on picking up stray bullets at this point."

Swift and Kelce were recently seen together as the popstar supported her boyfriend as the Chiefs beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 in an NFL match on Christmas Day.
