Certain sports activities commentators may blame<\/a> singer Taylor Swift<\/strong> for the Kansas City Chiefs\u2019 string of failures, however they\u2019re clearly not the one ones able to dish out contempt for the cultural and financial powerhouse. On Friday, famed writer Anne Lamott<\/strong> tweeted what many see as a comment contemptuous of the favored singer, then tangled with followers indignant on the remark.<\/p>\n The incident started with a since-deleted tweet from the 69-year-old Bird by Bird<\/em> writer that learn, \u201cI\u2019m so glad this year is almost over, and we won\u2019t have to read about Taylor Swift anymore.\u201d Presumably a joking acknowledgment of the 34-year-old billionaire\u2019s<\/a> Time Person of the Year<\/a> honor, it was swiftly interpreted by a few of Lamott\u2019s 245.7K followers as a diss of the artist.<\/p>\n \u201cHate on another successful woman that cares about other humans ??? Shame on you !! So disappointed at you Anne Lamott,\u201d responded one. \u201cGoodbye, think you will be more comfortable somewhere else,\u201d Lamott stated<\/a> as she quote-tweeted her erstwhile fan. \u201cYou take care, now,\u201d she wrote to a different, who wrote<\/a>, \u201cHating anothers talents while expecting praise for your own is selfish.\u201d Countless different responses that expressed disappointment within the writer went unresponded to.<\/p>\n As far as I do know, Lamott\u2019s not a Chiefs fan, so\u2014not like people like<\/a> Fox Sports host Skip Bayless<\/strong> and OutKick founder and COVID conspiracy theorist<\/a> Clay Travis<\/strong>, she\u2019s not making the simply debunked<\/a> declare that Swift is someway accountable when the crew from Kansas City loses a sport. Instead, she seems distressed that individuals are writing concerning the well-known and influential lady as usually as they do\u2014so distressed that as an alternative of closing a tab or scrolling previous headlines that fail to curiosity her, she headed to X (previously Twitter) to complain.<\/p>\n Soon thereafter, Lamott deleted the controversial tweet and wrote,<\/a> \u201cVery sorry for snarky Taylor Swift comment. I probably got more angry response to this than for anything I\u2019ve tweeted in the ten years I\u2019ve been here. Note to self: try to do better.\u201d<\/p>\n I\u2019ll depart it to Lamott to find out how onerous she\u2019s being ratioed, but when she\u2019d responded to my request for remark, I\u2019d ask how this compares to the response she obtained to her tweets about Caitlyn Jenner\u2019s<\/strong> groundbreaking 2015 interview with Vanity Fair<\/a>. \u201cIs it okay to be a tiny tiny bit tired of Caitlyn?\u201d Lamott requested then. \u201cYes, was very brave but so far he\u2019s gone from man to mannequin, instead of man to woman.\u201d<\/p>\n When her followers famous that Lamott had misgendered Jenner, she responded, \u201cWill call him a she when the pee-pee is gone.\u201d She apologized then (although some felt the apology was solely partial<\/a>), and the incident turned fodder for an essay<\/a> in her 2017 ebook, Hallelujah Anyway: Rediscovering Mercy.<\/em><\/p>\n Lamott will probably want some mercy on Sunday, when Swift is once more within the information. That\u2019s as a result of, as has been her wont through the winter break for her Eras Tour, the singer has been faithfully attending her boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs tight finish Travis Kelce\u2019s<\/strong> video games.\u00a0<\/p>\n While neither Kelce nor Swift have confirmed her attendance at Sunday\u2019s Chiefs sport in opposition to the Cincinnati Bengals (and requests for remark from Vanity Fair haven’t obtained a response), it appears fairly probably<\/a> that she\u2019ll be within the Arrowhead Stadium stands for kickoff at 4:25 p.m. ET. on New Year\u2019s Eve.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
