Megyn Kelly criticized Taylor Swift for her reaction to Jo Koy's joke at the 2024 Golden Globes. The host made a comment about the limited camera shots of Swift compared to NFL games, which prompted Swift to glare at Koy. Kelly believed that Swift should have taken the joke lightly and shown that she was a good sport.

Kelly mentioned that Swift's facial expression seemed defensive and as if she felt her popularity was being questioned. She also stated that if she had been Swift's advisor, she would have recommended that Swift go along with the joke to acknowledge the excessive camera shots of her in the NFL.

Despite the joke, Swift carried on with her girls' night with Selena Gomez and Keleigh Sperry, but left the ceremony early after losing in her category.

However, a source close to Swift denied that Gomez's conversation was about the affectionate couple.

The exact details of the conversation between Sperry and Gomez regarding Timothée Chalamet are unclear, but there seemed to be acknowledgement and surprise from Swift.
