Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole seemingly addressed Taylor Swift dissing her in a new track.
Just hours after the pop star’s “The Life of a Showgirl” album was released Friday, Nicole reposted a reel via her Instagram Story that features Eva Marcille in an old scene from “America’s Next Top Model.”
Tyra Banks asks Marcille, now 40, in the clip, “How do you compare yourself to the other girls out there?”
The model responds, “I don’t compare myself to other girls. I’m Eva. I’m no comparison to anyone else.”
On Friday, Nicole also shared via Instagram images from a dinner she attended, hosted by Hollywood Confidential in Los Angeles.
She looked glamorous, wearing a brown, silk dress with a halter neckline. Her hair was in a curly bob.
“What an honor to share a table with some of the most iconic ‘girlfriends’ of all time,” the “Pre-Game With Kayla Nicole” podcast host, 33, wrote in the caption of her post. “Women whose art has been a mirror and a reminder of what’s possible at every stage of my womanhood.”
She added, “Thank you @hollywoodconfidential for creating space to celebrate visibility, sisterhood, and storytelling in its truest form. And a very special thank you to the honoree of the evening, @marabrockakil. Your gift has given generations a language and a lense.”
Nicole also reposted via her Instagram Story Friday a meme that reads, “And when God give you ball, BALL,” referencing an informal phrase that means to have courage, boldness or audacity.
The posts come after Swift, 35, dropped “Opalite” — a song she has admitted in interviews is about Kelce — and sings in it, “You couldn’t understand it, why you felt alone / You were in it for real, she was in her phone / And you were just a pose.”
The “she was in her phone” line appears to be a jab at Nicole, whom Kelce, 35, publicly called out in a resurfaced video for being on her phone too much while they dated.
The influencer responded to the NFL star at the time that she wouldn’t have to “seek validation from a bunch of strangers on the internet” if he paid more attention to her.
Swift’s other line “and you were just a pose” appears to also apply to Nicole and Kelce’s romance, as well, since they often made several red carpet appearances together.
The former couple began dating in 2017 after they exchanged a few flirty interactions via Instagram before Nicole finally slid into Kelce’s DMs on New Year’s Eve. Their relationship was on and off for five years.
Since the Super Bowl champ has been dating Swift, however, Nicole has been accused of bringing up her famous ex in interviews in order to maintain some sort of relevance.
Meanwhile, the podcaster has hit back at those telling her to “get over” their breakup, saying, “Life handed me lemons and I made a lemon martini out of it and that upsets people.”
Swift has not publicly confirmed whether “Opalite” indeed references Nicole and her rep has not returned requests for comment. Nicole has not issued a statement directly addressing the speculation, either.
