Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has become one of the most popular players in the NFL over the past year. A perennial Pro Bowler and All-Pro, he has always been held in high regard by football fans, but his relationship with 14-time Grammy Award winner Taylor Swift has made him even more recognizable and beloved by millions of more people.
Due to her own level of stardom, Swift has frequently had to deal with unfortunate instances of others attacking her online, or even attempting to physically attack her. For example, she had to cancel multiple shows of her Eras Tour due to a terrorist threat. Earlier this summer, a so-called fan was arrested for stalking her and making threats to her online.
On Tuesday night, one of the richest people in the world joined the list of creeps who have said and/or posted something terrible regarding Swift and her well-being.
Elon Musk Said He Will Give Taylor Swift a Baby After She Endorsed Kamala Harris

After the 2024 Presidential Debate on Tuesday night, Swift posted on Instagram that she would be casting her vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in November. Her post read, in part:
“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election. I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them. I think she is a steady-handed, gifted leader and I believe we can accomplish so much more in this country if we are led by calm and not chaos. I was so heartened and impressed by her selection of running mate @timwalz, who has been standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman’s right to her own body for decades.”
She signed her post “Taylor Swift, Childless Cat Lady,” a reference to Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance, who has been waging a war against single and childless women ever since he joined the Republican ticket.
Her announcement was, of course, met with mixed reactions, but few were as disturbing as the post made by Elon Musk:
As one might expect, the first person many thought of when they saw Musk’s disgusting post was the Chiefs’ tight end.

Comments like the one Musk made are textbook examples of sexual harassment. Since he owns X, though, he is able to say whatever he wants without being held accountable.
Some fans want Kelce to hold him accountable, though:
