Controversial Chiefs star Harrison Butker cozied up to conservative commentators Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly Thursday night.<\/p>\n

The Kansas City kicker, 29, who sparked liberal outrage for his personal religious and political beliefs earlier this year, attended Carlson\u2019s live show, featuring special guest Kelly, at the city\u2019s T-Mobile Center.<\/p>\n

Following the show, which was part of Carlson\u2019s first-ever national arena tour, the Super Bowl winner went backstage to meet the media personalities.<\/p>\n

They even commemorated the moment with a photo of the conservative trio which was shared to the host\u2019s Instagram and reposted to the NFL player\u2019s story.<\/p>\n

Butker\u2019s meet-up with his \u2018friends\u2019 came just one day after Kelly launched a scathing attack on Taylor Swift \u2013 the girlfriend of Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce.<\/p>\n

\"Travis<\/a><\/p>\n

The former Fox News presenter issued a brutal takedown of Swift after the popstar, 34, publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, 59, after her debate with Donald Trump, 78, on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Kelly claimed the songstress and tight end boyfriend Kelce, also 34, were \u2018the epitomes of elite snobs\u2019 who didn\u2019t really care what happened to American kids because they\u2019re too busy \u2018jetting across the world\u2019 and \u2018sitting in their mansions.\u2019<\/p>\n

The media personality went on to slam the Grammy Award winner as \u2018disgusting\u2019 for her statement \u2013 which was shared to her 284million followers on Instagram \u2013 and claimed that the hitmaker and the NFL star, were \u2018too obsessed with their money\u2019 to focus on the growing problems in the country.<\/p>\n

\u2018You can kiss your sales to the Republican audience goodbye, Taylor, hope you enjoyed them while you had them,\u2019 Kelly said.<\/p>\n

In her lengthy Instagram post, Taylor vowed that she \u2018makes sure to watch and read everything she can\u2019 about Trump and Harris\u2019 \u2018proposed policies and plans for this country.\u2019<\/p>\n

She said she planned to vote for Kamala because she believed the 59-year-old \u2018fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them.\u2019<\/p>\n

She also praised Kamala\u2019s running mate Tim Walz for \u2018standing up for LGBTQ+ rights, IVF, and a woman\u2019s right to her own body for decades.\u2019<\/p>\n

\"Harrison<\/a><\/p>\n

Butker has courted controversy with his own views on women\u2019s and LGBTQ+ rights this year.<\/p>\n

Kelly launched a blistering attack against Swift for supporting Kamala Harris this week<\/p>\n

Megyn claimed Swift and boyfriend Kelce are \u2018the epitomes of elite snobs\u2019<\/p>\n

He sparked outrage a couple of months after helping the Chiefs to a second straight Super Bowl win when he told female graduates at Benedictine College that they should be more \u2018excited\u2019 to become wives and mothers rather than successful professionals.<\/p>\n

He later doubled down on the views he expressed in the speech, refusing to back down from his views as a devout Catholic.<\/p>\n

He also drew criticism for hitting out at the LGBTQ + community and President Joe Biden over his views on abortion, with a petition for the Chiefs to cut him from their roster eventually receiving almost 240,000 signatures.<\/p>\n

Last month, he implored JD Vance \u2013 Trump\u2019s running mate \u2013 and by proxy the former President to bring the Republican party \u2018back line\u2019 on its abortion stance.<\/p>\n

While Kelce has previously defended Butker, the kicker\u2019s latest stunt could pose a threat to peace within the Chiefs camp.<\/p>\n

Shortly after his girlfriend\u2019s statement endorsing Harris, it was reported that Kelce was expected to make a bombshell election announcement of his own soon.<\/p>\n

Kelce has kept silent on his girlfriend\u2019s endorsement. However, it has been suggested that the NFL star shares a similar stance.<\/p>\n

\u2018Well, you know the Taylor Swift rumors are interesting to me, because I was told a couple of days ago that Travis Kelce also had reached out to the Harris campaign when it was first announced and said that he wanted to be here on the night that [Kamala] was speaking,\u2019 CBS\u2019 Gayle King said during the DNC last month.<\/p>\n

It isn\u2019t the only political divide that could risk derailing the Chiefs three-peat conquest this season after it emerged that Swift and bestie Brittany Mahomes \u2013 the wife of quarterback Patrick \u2013 also stood on different side of America\u2019s political spectrum.<\/p>\n

Brittany, who has been married to the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback since 2022, sparked a liberal meltdown last month when she liked a Donald Trump post on social media.<\/p>\n

The close friends\u2019 opposing political views have triggered fears for what they could mean for their fledgling friendship.<\/p>\n

Yet, despite courting controversy, Brittany and Taylor dispelled any rumors of bad blood when the Mahomeses joined the songstress and Kelce at the US Open Sunday.<\/p>\n

A source exclusively told DailyMail.com that they \u2018respect that they have different views\u2019 and have made a \u2018pact\u2019 to avoid discussing politics last month and the couples appeared to be nothing but friendly as they soaked up the on-court action.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Mahomes himself has played peacemaker, providing a thoughtful response when quizzed on his own political stance earlier this week.<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t want my platform to be used to endorse a candidate \u2013 either way \u2013 I use that to get people registered, do their research and make their best decision for them and their family,\u2019 the quarterback told reporters Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\u2018Every time I get asked these questions, I\u2019m going to refer back to that because I think that\u2019s what makes America so great.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
