Sports reporter Jackie Redmond emerged as a staunch defender of Taylor Swift for the pop star’s appearance at the Stanley Cup.
Many on social media were incensed about the fact that Swift and her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce, were shown during the live coverage of the Stanley Cup Finals game 4 in Florida.
Jackie Redmond said that Swift drew attention to the NHL and gave the game exposure, which it does need.
“It’s been 48 hrs. Can we plz get over the fact the biggest pop star in the world went to a hockey game and – gasp! – we showed her!? God forbid a celeb draw attention to a sport ppl constantly say needs more exposure! Hope y’all had the same energy for Chalamet at Knicks games,” Redmond wrote on social media platform X.
Taylor Swift made an unexpected appearance at Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers in Florida on Thursday night.
