Bill Maher, the renowned HBO host, is about to face the wrath of Taylor Swift’s die-hard fans, and it’s not going to be pretty.
On his latest podcast episode, Maher found himself in hot water while discussing Swift’s romance with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce alongside the Hawk Tuah Girl, Haliey Welch.
Swifties, beware! Maher’s comments are about to spark a firestorm.

Welch swiftly came to Swift’s defense, saying, “Whatever makes her happy. If that’s what she wants to do and it makes her happy, it ain’t got nothin’ to do with me.”

Welch cleverly retorted, “If he does that, can you imagine the next album we’re gonna get off of that?”
Meanwhile, insiders close to the couple have revealed that Kelce is not planning to propose anytime soon, as he takes marriage very seriously and wants to give it careful consideration.
Swift, on the other hand, seems to be living her best life, surrounded by love, adoration, and a record-breaking tour.
