Kayla Nicole is seemingly unbothered by rumors that Taylor Swift's song could reference a past moment with Travis Kelce.
Swift, who is now engaged to Kansas City Chiefs star, released her 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, on Oct. 3. As fans were disecting the lyrics to the album's third track, "Opalite," there was a connection Swifities believe between Kayla Nicole and the three-time Super Bowl champion when they were dating. The sports reporter and Kelce dated on and off from 2017 to 2022 but recently a resurfaced video of the two arguing about Kayla Nicole's phone usage went viral.
With a glass of red wine in hand, Kayla Nicole tells Kelce that she wouldn't need “to seek validation from a bunch of strangers on the internet” if “someone sometimes would pay [her] attention,” according to screenshots of the since-deleted video on Page Six.
Kelce seemingly annoyed responded, "Oh, my God. Get off your phone. Get off your phone. … You’re not even drinking your wine anymore. Can we go?”
That interaction is seemingly played out in the lyrics to Swift's "Opalite."
"You couldn’t understand it / Why you felt alone / You were in it for real / She was in her phone / You were just a pose…” Swift sings on the track.
