Megyn Kelly apparently has no patience for bandwagon fans. After Taylor Swift sat court side to watch the New York Knicks beat the San Antonio Spurs during game four of the NBA finals on Wednesday, June 11, the host of The Megyn Kelly Show had some choice words for the pop star.

Kelly, 55, accused Swift, 36, of “pretending to be a Knicks fan” and mocked the singer by saying, “Oh yeah, here I am, I’m so excited. Oh, the Knicks!” Then Kelly presented her evidence, saying, “By the way, she was just at a Knicks-Cavaliers game, rooting for Cleveland with Travis Kelce! Who does she think she’s kidding?! She was there with him. They were rooting for the Cavs. She’s a fake New York Knicks fan, and she’s a fake person.”

Indeed, Swift attended game three of the Eastern Conference Finals with Kelce, 36, on May 23. During that game, the NFL star, a Cleveland native, was decked out in Cavaliers gear and cheering for his home team, while Swift opted for a more neutral ensemble. At the Finals game more recently, Swift donned a blue shirt with a cheeky message: “Stevie Knicks.” It was custom-made by her pal, singer Alana Haim, who sat next to Swift along with her sister and bandmate Este Haim as well as Mariska Hargitay.
