Taylor Swift’s fans jokingly called out the pop star for saying she could not make the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards — while attending her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs game.
After Swift and Post Malone won the award for best video for their “Fortnight” collaboration, the network played a prerecorded acceptance speech in which the “Lover” singer said in part, “I am coming to you from the Eras Tour, and I’m so sad that I can’t be with you tonight.”
The footage aired Sunday night in the UK, where the ceremony was held, but it was still the afternoon in Kansas City, Mo., where Swift watched Kelce’s team defeat the Denver Broncos 16-14.
