Taylor Swift has recently received quite a bit of criticism, due to her relationship with Travis Kelce, one of the stars of the Kansas City Chiefs from the NFL.
The reason?
American television's focus on the pop star at the team's games.
Swift is now getting support from an unexpected source.
Charles Barkley, a member of the NBA Hall of Fame and senior commentator claimed: "If you scream at Taylor Swift and say she ruined football, you're just a loser. You're just a loser or an idiot."
Remember, the former actor Tiki Barber was one of those who came out publicly against the singer - or rather against the American media that chooses to focus on her.
Britney Mahoms, the partner of the star Patrick, also supported Swift publicly.
She shared Barkley's words in solidarity with her roommate watching the Chiefs' games.
"If you're screaming at Taylor Swift saying she ruined [football], you're just a loser. You're just a loser or a jackass."

According to a company that specializes in analyzing the world of sports advertising in the United States, the hot romance between the pop star and the Kansas City Chiefs player caused more than 330 million dollars in revenue, thanks to the great exposure that the singer brings to the league.
In addition, compared to last season, the number of women watching the games increased by more than 9%, while the percentage of men increased by only 6%.
