Fans booed Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for their “trash” behavior during the US Open final on Sunday, leaving Brittany Mahomes with goosebumps.
Taylor and Travis, along with Brittany and her husband Patrick, headed to Arthur Ashe Stadium to watch Italian world number 1 Jannik Sinner take on American star Taylor Fritz for the final Grand Slam title of the year.
At one point during the final round, the spotlight was on the famous supercouple as they performed the iconic 2000s rock song “I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness in the stands. A clip of the moment set the internet alight.
As Taylor and Travis enthusiastically sang along, a number of users noted how uncomfortable Brittany and Patrick looked next to them. The Chiefs WAG whispered in disbelief to her quarterback husband, “Do you know this song?”
After Patrick responded, she seemed to say, “What now?!”
Fans have slammed Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce for their ‘dirty’ antics during the US Open final
While Swift’s loyal followers and some tennis fans were impressed, others criticized her and Kelce for not behaving properly and putting on a show for the cameras in New York.
A user wrote on X: ‘Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are absolutely ridiculous at the US Open, this looks completely forced and unnatural’.
Another commented: ‘No other couple in the celeb world loves the cameras as much. We still can’t believe it.’
“If you can’t see Taylor being overly dramatic and making a fool of herself, then you’re beyond help,” a third said. “No one acts like a 15 year old on her first booze cruise at the US Open. It’s the US Open, not a football game in a bar. Maybe she’s just trash vs class, I don’t know.”
A fan commented on the post and agreed: ‘That’s what I said! Do you see any more couples kissing in the stands?! Like you said, it’s the US Open, not a soccer game, so be a little decent.’
“She definitely won’t be invited to Wimbledon,” concluded another.
While one simply said: ‘unbelievably chilling’.
In another clip, shared by comedian Matt Friend, Swift can be seen bouncing along to a different song while dancing to Kelce as he chats with teammate Mahomes.

Taylor and Travis arrived in New York City on Friday and visited Brooklyn-based pizzeria Lucali that evening. They were greeted by numerous paparazzi upon arrival.
The trip to the US Open ended the weekend before Kelce returned to Kansas City for the Chiefs’ Week 2 game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
Swift was in the stands at their home opener victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday in Arrowhead, watching the game with Kelce’s family.
After they weren’t together that night, talk of a possible rift between Taylor and Mahomes’ wife Brittany emerged after Mahomes liked a post from Donald Trump on Instagram last month.
However, the best friends put an end to any rumors of a feud when they were spotted with their best friend at the US Open final.
Brittany, a mother of two, also received a lot of criticism after she admitted she didn’t know the hugely popular song by The Darkness.
Not Brittany asking Patrick, “Do you know this song?” someone responded with a bunch of laughing emojis.

“She’s lame,” someone else replied, while another user added, “I don’t need another reason to dislike Mahomes.”
“Anyone who doesn’t like this song fails the vibe test,” read a fourth comment.
A fifth said: ‘Brittany is so [tired looking].Go to bed, girl.
“In a world of Patricks and Brittanys, be the Taylor and Travis,” someone else wrote.
“Brittany, just pretend you know the song, even if you don’t,” someone else suggested.
