Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift at US Open
Fans have ripped into Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce over their ‘pure cringe’ and ‘trash’ antics in the crowd at Sunday’s US Open final.

Along with best friends Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, Taylor and Travis headed to Arthur Ashe Stadium to watch Italy’s world No 1 Jannik Sinner battle it out with American star Taylor Fritz for the last Grand Slam title of the year.

At one stage of the final cameras panned to the celebrity super-couple as they belted out iconic 2000s rock song ‘I Believe in a Thing Called Love’ by The Darkness in the stands, with a clip of the moment setting the internet ablaze.

Yet while the singer’s die-hard followers and a portion of tennis fans were in awe, others took aim at Swift and Kelce for lacking ‘decorum’ and putting on a show for the cameras in New York.

One user wrote on X: ‘Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are pure cringe at the US Open, this looks completely forced and unnatural’.

Another commented: ‘No other couple in the celeb world loves the cameras this much. We’re still not buying it.’

‘If you can’t see that Taylor is being overly dramatic and making a spectacle of herself, you’re beyond help,’ said a third. ‘No one acts like a 15 yr on her first booze cruise at the US Open. It’s the US Open, not a football game in honky tonk. Maybe she’s just really trash vs class, I dunno.’

 

One fan replied to that post and agreed: ‘That’s what I was saying! Do you see any other couples making out in the stands?! Like you said It’s the US open not a football game have some decorum’.

‘She definitely won’t be invited to Wimbledon,’ concluded another.

While one simply put: ‘incredibly cringe’.

In another clip shared by comedian Matt Friend, Swift could be seen grooving along to another song while dancing on Kelce as he chatted with teammate Mahomes.

Taylor and Travis landed in New York City on Friday and visited Brooklyn pizza hotspot Lucali that evening, with tons of paparazzi waiting for them as they arrived.

The trip to the US Open concluded the weekend before Kelce jets back to Kansas City ahead of the Chiefs’ Week 2 clash with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Swift was in the stands for their opening victory over the Baltimore Ravens at Arrowhead on Thursday, watching the game alongside Kelce’s family.

After they were not sat together that night, there was talk of a potential rift between Taylor and Mahomes’ wife Brittany after the latter liked a Donald Trump post on Instagram last month.

However, the BFFs put any talk of a feud to bed when they were seen embracing alongside their man at the US Open final.
