Cam Stewart, host of the “Drew & Stew Podcast,” has sparked a strong controversy, especially among Taylor Swift’s fans, after making a controversial comment about the singer.
During a recent episode of his podcast, Stewart openly expressed his frustration with Swift’s presence at NFL games, particularly the Kansas City Chiefs games, due to her relationship with Travis Kelce, the team’s tight end.
Although Swift has been a consistent supporter of Kelce throughout the season, her presence at stadiums and the media attention it generates has upset some fans, including Stewart.
Stewart went too far with his statements
Stewart’s comment went beyond simple disapproval. In a conversation about the upcoming game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills, the podcaster stated that although he had nothing personal against Chiefs fans, he “hated” the team and how they benefit from the NFL.
“Honest to God, Kansas City fans, it’s not personal. If I meet a Kansas City fan, you could be the nicest guy in the world. I hate your team and I hate the way they’re getting benefits from the NFL,” Stewart said. “Buffalo, knock these [expletives] around. I want Mahomes on the deck.”
Then, when he learned that Swift might attend the game, Stewart made a comment that many considered excessive and out of line: “Oh, who cares? Throw her into the Niagara Falls.”
This remark about Taylor Swift quickly sparked reactions on social media, particularly from Swift’s most loyal fans, known as Swifties. Many labeled Stewart’s words as inappropriate and cruel, expressing their outrage on Twitter and other platforms.
Some even warned that such comments could have serious consequences, pointing out that Swifties are a powerful and determined fanbase capable of “unleashing hell” on those who attack their idol.
Some users have labeled Stewart’s comments as a way to seek attention
Although Stewart tried to downplay his comment by calling it a joke, the response was overwhelming. Most of Swift’s fans did not find his words funny.
Some even pointed out that Stewart, in his attempt to gain notoriety through controversy, had crossed a dangerous line by making such derogatory remarks about such a beloved public figure as Taylor Swift.
So far, Taylor Swift has not responded publicly to the incident, which reflects her typical approach of ignoring unnecessary provocations. However, the situation has put Stewart at the center of negative attention, and many are wondering if he will eventually apologize to Swift and her fans.
This episode highlights how a rash comment can generate an outpouring of reactions on social media, especially when it involves such influential figures like Swift.
