MMA cult figure’s conspiracy on Taylor Swift romance goes global

An MMA fighter has come out with an explosive theory about what is really going on with Taylor Swift and boyfriend Travis Kelce.

Former UFC star Paige VanZant is not buying the relationship between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce, claiming it’s “100 per cent fake.”

VanZant, 29, believes the “love story” between the star-studded couple is entirely a “publicity stunt.”

The MMA fighter added on her podcast “Page and Austin” that the 12-time Grammy award winner is only with the Chiefs star tight end to reach “an entirely different demographic.”

“I think that the Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce ‘love story,’ I believe it’s 100 per cent fake,” she said. “Come for me, Swifties.’ I have UFC fans coming for me, I think I can handle the “Swifties.’”

“It is publicity. It is — one, it’s huge for the NFL because yes, the NFL is big. Taylor Swift is huge and now she’s getting an entirely different demographic to come watch the NFL,” VanZant continued.

“Think of the wives that are buying Travis Kelce jerseys now. It’s a huge publicity play on both fronts. It’s good for Taylor Swift, it’s good for the NFL, it’s good for Travis Kelce. There is so much strategic stuff that’s happening.”

The pair’s suspected flourishing relationship began when Swift made an appearance at one of Kelce’s games at the start of the season.

Since then, the two have appeared together publicly at more Chiefs games, on Swift’s “Eras Tour” leg in Argentina and on “Saturday Night Live.”

Swift recently flew to Kansas City to stay with Kelce after the South American leg of her “Eras Tour” concluded this week. Kelce bought a $6 million Kansas City mansion for the two to have all the privacy they need.

She has a two-month break before she heads back out with four shows starting on Tokyo on February 7, 2024.

Swift recently adorably changed the lyrics to one of her songs to reference Kelce during her concert in Buenos Aires Saturday night.

VanZant spent six years in the MMA before she was released in 2020 and pursued a new path by creating an OnlyFans account.

She shared she makes more showing off her body to viewers in one day than she did “in her entire fighting career,” and she doesn’t see herself stopping anytime soon.

“OnlyFans has definitely been my largest source of income. I would say combined, in my fighting career,” she told Barstool Sports.

“I would say when I made the switch to — there’s a lot of stuff I’ve done in my career. I’ve been really fortunate in my career,” she added.

“Even outside of the UFC and out of fighting has been pretty successful. I’ve worked pretty hard in other industries and trying to cross over, I guess [to] a more mainstream personality.”

VanZant has also appeared on popular TV shows such as Dancing with the Stars and Hell’s Kitchen.
