Angel Reese hits back at Taylor Swift fans blasting Kayla Nicole’s podcast interview: ‘Hating pays too’

Angel Reese has three words for her haters.

On Friday, the WNBA star clapped back at social media users — seemingly Swifties — for criticizing her recent podcast interview with Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole.

Travis Kelce’s former partner, Kayla Nicole, criticizes the NFL star’s sluggish beginning as the Chiefs prepare for their game…

“hating pays too 💅,” Reese wrote on X.

The Chicago Sky player’s tweet came after Taylor Swift’s fans blasted her for using Nicole’s relationship with the NFL player to increase viewership.

Nicole, 32, recently sat down with Reese, 22, for an episode of her “Unapologetically Angel” podcast, which was clipped and spread all over social media Thursday.

During the episode, the sports reporter addressed rumors about her 2022 split from Kelce, subtly reacted to her fallout with former BFF Brittany Mahomes and talked about the tight end’s new romance with Swift, 34.

Nicole insisted she and Kelce, 35, ended things on good terms but said they couldn’t have a friendship due to his new high-profile relationship.

When asked what she would do if she saw her ex in public, the influencer said she would “probably hit him with, like, a head nod.”

We’ve seen each other in public spaces before but it’s — I think that we’re both aware of the nature of his new situation that there’s just no room really for us to communicate or acknowledge each other publicly without it being spun into something crazy,” she explained.

Although Nicole never specifically named Swift, it was easy for fans to deduce who she was talking about.

However, Nicole noted that Kelce was — and is — “a great guy.”

“That was a good time in my life,” she added.

Nicole and the Kansas City Chiefs star began dating in 2017 and split five years later.

Although Kelce didn’t start dating Swift for over a year, Nicole has still been the target of online attacks due to her past.

The model has repeatedly hit back against the hate, most recently calling out one user in September for attacking her appearance

YOU WILL NEVER MAKE ME HATE ME,” Nicole replied to a page dedicated to posting unfiltered photos of her after they shared one of her makeup-free selfies with a throwup emoji.

A few months prior, she also called out “fake page, s–t talking, cult following, keyboard warriors,” encouraging them to take some time off.

Reese, for her part, is also no stranger to online attacks as her on-the-court rivalry with Caitlin Clark has been a hot topic of conversation for the last couple of years.
