Tom Brady poked fun at Taylor Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs during his live roast special on Sunday, May 5.
When Brady, 46, addressed the live audience at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, Calif., he began by stating, “Kansas City, you say your stadium is the loudest,” in reference to Arrowhead Stadium.
“It helps when all your fans are 14-year-old girls,” Brady said with a chuckle. The retired quarterback then added, “And in honor of Tay-Tay, let’s take a look at the Chiefs’ eras: terrible for 50 years, good for five.”
Brady’s friendly jab at Swift, 34, and the Chiefs was all in good fun. After the superstar singer began attending Chiefs’ games in September, Kansas City’s fanbase expanded greatly to Swift’s fans who wanted to support her relationship with tight end Travis Kelce.
Swift’s dedicated fanbase also took a liking to Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes, who has become good friends with Swift since the singer and Kelce began dating.
Kelce, 34, meanwhile, was in Miami at the Formula 1 Grand Prix on Sunday with Patrick and Brittany, both 28, as Brady roasted their NFL team’s fanbase. He could be seen arriving at the venue in a clip shared by ESPN on TikTok.
Brady’s live roast saw the former NFL star take hits from the roast panel, including host Kevin Hart, Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski, Nikki Glaser, Drew Bledsoe, Randy Moss and Kim Kardashian.
Hart delivered the most gasp-worthy jokes of the night, focusing on Brady’s love life and his divorce from Gisele Bündchen in October 2022. Hart, 44, began by criticizing Brady’s decision to “unretire” and play one last, disappointing season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
“Gisele gave you an ultimatum,” Hart said. “She told you to retire or you’re done. But when you get the opportunity to go 8-9, you must take it.” Following Hart, many more of Brady’s roasters criticized the former NFL quarterback over his marriage.
Former Patriots quarterback Bledsoe, who Brady succeeded in 2001, remarked that he’s “pretty used to not being touched.” “Just like the end of a marriage.” A few minutes later, Glaser, 39, continued to pursue Brady for his divorce. “You’ve got seven rings. “Well, eight now that Gisele gave hers back,” she explained.
And Edelman, Brady’s former teammate, joked that he now refers to the quarterback as “Leonardo DiCaprio’s ex-girlfriend’s ex-husband.”
