Nicole Kidman Reacts to Taylor Swift and Haim Sisters’ Knicks T-Shirt Shoutout

"Swifties, I appreciate your passion," she told TMZ. "I said what I said. I misspoke. I did not know. But here's the deal, context—I literally just did a piece on celebrity row. I've been with this organization for five years. I know these folks. Ben Stiller, his wife Christine, Fat Joe. I had not seen her this year or last year."

And while McNutt acknowledged Swift's recent outing to the Knicks vs. Cleveland Cavaliers playoff game, she maintained she thought she was supporting fiancé Travis Kelce. 

"Obviously, Travis supports the Cavs," McNutt continued. "But she didn't have on any Knicks paraphernalia so I did not know her Knicks loyalty. But shoutout T-Swift. We can be united."

Indeed, Swift pledged her allegiance to the New York team back in 2014, shortly after her move to the Big Apple. That year, she attended several games and even linked up with then-players Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire to shoot hoops in celebration of her then-forthcoming album 1989.

But her love for the team runs even deeper.

“I performed at the Knicks'—at Madison Square Garden's—Kids Talent Competition at halftime when I was 12 or 13,” she told TIME in 2014. “And ever since then I've had this kind of sparkly, magical opinion of Madison Square Garden and the Knicks, since they let me sing when I was a little kid.”
