<\/p>\nCaitlin Clark has been accused of faking her Kansas City Chiefs fandom after she watched Travis Kelce’s team beat the Houston Texans alongside Taylor Swift on Saturday.<\/p>\n
WNBA star Clark joined Swift in the Kelce family suite to witness a Kelce masterclass as the Chiefs took another step towards a historic Super Bowl three-peat.<\/p>\n
The pair were sat together for the thrilling finale, which saw Kelce score a fourth-quarter touchdown while the game was on a knife-edge.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Swift erupted with joy in the VIP suite, leaping to her feet and hugging Clark. It was the key moment of the game, giving the Chiefs an eight-point lead. They would go on to record a 23-14 victory.<\/p>\n
But Clark’s presence in the VIP suite should hardly come as a surprise. Not only is she a lifelong Chiefs fan, but the Indiana Fever guard was recently a guest on New Heights, the popular podcast hosted by Kelce and his older brother Jason.<\/p>\n
Despite clarifying that she is very much a Chiefs fan on the podcast, ESPN star Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo has claimed that she’s not and is only supporting them ‘because they win’.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Speaking on his podcast, Mad Dog Unleashed, he also labelled Swift ‘the girlfriend’ while criticizing both women.<\/p>\n
He said: ‘I’ve had enough with Kelce. I’ve had enough with the girlfriend. Now I got Caitlin Clark in the mix.<\/p>\n
‘Who, by the way, I saw Caitlin Clark play, what, 50 games in college basketball the last two years? Parts of it. I never heard one reference. I never saw her father with a Chief jersey on. I never saw her with a Chief hat on. I heard not one reference in 50 games that she was a Chief fan, and then all of a sudden now she’s a big Kansas City fan.<\/p>\n
‘Come on, stop, please. I understand you want to be a fan because they win.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
‘It’s ridiculous. And ESPN, they’re going to be as guilty as everybody else. They’re going to show you Swift and her and that freaking press box until the cows come home.<\/p>\n
‘When Taylor Swift’s Bob Dylan, come back and talk to me. Come back and talk to me when she has that impact. Not for the 18-year-old girls like my daughter\u2026 When you change music, come back and talk to me.’<\/p>\n
Former FS1 and ESPN host Skip Bayless was also infuriated to see Clark sat alongside Swift.<\/p>\n
He posted during the game: ‘WAIT, CAITLIN CLARK IS UP IN THE ARROWHEAD BOX WITH TAYLOR SWIFT???<\/p>\n
‘CAITLIN, YOU DON’T NEED TO BE SEEN WITH HER. YOU’RE BIGGER THAN SHE IS. STAY ON YOUR OWN PATH.’<\/p>\n
