Popular comedian Jo Koy tried to make a joke at the expense of Taylor Swift while hosting Sunday’s Golden Globe Awards, but unfortunately, the joke fell flat.
Comparing the NFL’s airtime to an awards show after a commercial break after a football doubleheader, Koy quipped: “As you know, we’re coming after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL? At the Golden Globes, we had fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift, I swear.”
Immediately after her joke, the camera cut to Swift to get her reaction but the “Out of the Woods” hitmaker remained steadfast, sipping her drink. As the joke hit home with Swift and the audience, Koy apologized and quickly moved on.

Online reactions poured in after Koy’s Golden Globes joke about Swift’s camera time. One user criticized the awkward moment, stating, “That landed with a giant thud and a death glare from Swift. Not Jo Koy’s best moment.”
Another speculated about Koy’s preparations, stating, “Didn’t he run this joke with his people before doing it on stage? If he does, he needs to fire them as soon as possible.”
A third user questioned Hollywood’s sentiment toward Koy, saying, “I don’t care about Jo Koy one way or another, but the backlash makes me feel like I’m missing something: does all of Hollywood already hate this guy for some reason(s)? “

One Swift fan defended her, saying, “The joke wasn’t funny, and I’m sure that’s what she reacted to, but the way I see Swifties reacting to this is ridiculous. They acted as if he personally insulted her when he didn’t. It’s a well-worn joke about over-saturation. It’s a dig at the NFL, not him.”
Another humorously acknowledged Swift’s enviable status, commenting, “Poor Taylor Swift, between dating an NFL star, having the biggest concert tour ever, and being the person of the year, I love her so much.”

In a recent interview with Time Magazine, Swift discussed the challenges of dealing with unwanted attention during her appearance at a Kansas City Chiefs game to support her boyfriend Travis Kelce.
Expressing confusion about the paparazzi’s ability to track her down, she stated, “I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in. There’s a camera, like, half a mile away, and you don’t know when that camera is putting you on air, so I don’t know if I was shown 17 times or once.”
Aware of the impact of his visibility, he stressed his intention at the game was to “support Travis.”
“I don’t have the awareness if I show up too much and maybe piss off some dads, Brads, and Chads,” the pop star said.

In a different segment his conversation with Time, Swift revealed that her romantic involvement with Kelce preceded her attendance at the first Chiefs game. The “Cruel Summer” hitmaker revealed that their relationship began when Kelce mentioned it on his podcast, “New Heights.”
In a July episode of the podcast, the NFL player shared his frustration at not being able to give the “New Romantic” singer a friendship bracelet during the “Eras Tour” stop, stating, “He didn’t meet anybody, or at least he didn’t want to meet me, so I take it personally.”
Swift called the incident “metal as h—” and revealed they started hanging out soon after.
He expressed his gratitude for the period of privacy that allowed them to get to know each other, saying: “So we actually had a lot of time where no one knew, which I’m grateful for because we got to know each other. .”
The Grammy Award-winning singer added: “By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple. I think some people think they saw our first date at the game. We’ll never be psychotic enough to go on a first date.”
