The View’s Whoopi Goldberg and Sunny Hostin BLAST Taylor Swift’s ‘best friend’ Brittany Mahomes
The pair both hit out at the Kansas City Chiefs WAG, who is close friends with Taylor Swift and married to NFL quarterback Patrick Mahomes, while discussing new reports that she’s been ‘questioning her support’ for Donald after he publicly attacked the singer following her endorsement of presidential rival Kamala Harris.
‘He’s politically activating her army of Swifties, and there are also rumors that her best friend Brittany Mahomes who was hit with backlash for liking a pro-MAGA post is rethinking her alleged support,’ Whoopi said on Wednesday’s episode of The View.
‘Some could say, because he’s mad at your best friend, now you’re mad? It didn’t bother you that he was being a racist and being a misogynist and… that didn’t get you going?’ Whoopi added to rapturous applause from the audience.
Sunny echoed a similar sentiment as she weighed in on Brittany and mentioned her marriage to NFL star Patrick Mahomes, who is biracial.racial.

‘Because she’s a beautiful, accomplished, very wealthy woman who doesn’t like him and he’s an old racist in platform shoes, let’s face it. Next he’ll say she’s eating a dog. I know that’s coming up,’ she said.
Brittany, who has been married to Chiefs quarterback Patrick since 2022, sparked a liberal meltdown last month when she liked a post about Trump, 78, on social media.
Weeks later, Taylor, 34, publicly endorsed Kamala Harris’ bid for president – an action that drove a reported 338,000 visits to the federal voter registration website after she shared a link on Instagram.
Trump hit back in predictably blistering style on his Truth Social platform, claiming, ‘I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT’ – prompting Brittany, 29, to reportedly ‘question’ if she will continue to support his campaign.

‘She is questioning her support for Donald Trump after he lashed out at Taylor, saying he hates her,’ a source exclusively revealed to DailyMail.com.
‘This deeply bothered Brittany because Taylor is like a sister to her and she has done absolutely nothing wrong.
‘She didn’t mention Trump in her post and is allowed to speak her mind.’
The source added that Trump’s decision to react in such a hateful manner upset Brittany.
‘She does not believe in hate in any form and loves Taylor so much,’ the insider continued. ‘This shook her to the core.’
They added: ‘This doesn’t mean she is suddenly voting Kamala. It has just made her more aware of supporting him so publicly.’

Taylor, 34, publicly endorsed Kamala Harris’ bid for president, weeks after Brittany was spied liking posts regarding Trump’s campaign
The source told DailyMail.com: ‘She is questioning her support for Donald Trump after he lashed out at Taylor, saying he hates her’In August, eagle-eyed users caught the soon-to-be mother of three liking a Trump post mapping out 16 of his policies to his 26.3million followers; ranging from topics on immigration to the economy.
The like has generated plenty of outrage among liberals on social media, and Brittany appeared to hit out at her critics in a fiery clap back.
‘I mean honestly, to be a hater as an adult you have to have some deep rooted issues you refuse to heal from childhood,’ she wrote on her Instagram Story.
‘There’s no reason your brain is fully developed and you hate to see others doing well.’
Following the presidential debate on September 10, Taylor revealed in a lengthy Instagram post that she would be voting for Kamala in November.
She did not attack or call out Trump personally but she signed her backing of Harris with: ‘Childless Cat Lady.’
It is a reference to Trump’s running mate Sen. J.D. Vance, who said in a 2021 interview with Tucker Carlson that the U.S. is being run by Democrats, corporate oligarchs and ‘a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.’
Taylor also encouraged her millions of followers to do their research on the election and register to vote with a link she shared of vote.gov on her Instagram story sharing her grid post.
Hundreds of thousands of people – over 338,000 – clicked on the link from Swift’s story.
More than 11 million people liked the image Swift posted of herself with one of her three cats named after a fictional character, Benjamin Button.

But Taylor and Brittany made it clear that they had no bad blood by attending the US Open with their partners
Fans feared that Brittany’s apparent endorsement of Donald’s policies could lead to an awkward tension with fellow Chiefs WAG Taylor, who has publicly expressed disdain for the former president in the past.
While the pair have since been seen together attending the US Open with their partners, and were at Patrick’s 29th birthday bash this weekend – Taylor has not been pictured in the same suite as Brittany at any Chiefs games this season.
On Sunday, Taylor returned to the Arrowhead Stadium and was sat apart from Brittany for the second consecutive week despite previously being joined at the hip to cheer on their men last season.
Taylor, who has been dating tight end Travis Kelce since last year, arrived to the game earlier in the day with mother Andrea, brother Austin, and singer Danielle Haim.
While Taylor did not sit with Brittany for the Chiefs’ week 2 win, she was with Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of wide receiver Mecole Hardman.
Chariah could be seen celebrating with the pop star in a suite as Kansas City moved to 2-0.
She also shared two pictures of them to Instagram, showing the pair posing with Sheawna Weatherby, the wife of Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones.
