Of all the people who could possibly defend\u00a0Taylor Swift<\/strong>\u00a0against accusations that her relationship with\u00a0Travis Kelce<\/strong>\u00a0is “ruining” football,\u00a0David Letterman<\/strong>\u00a0isn’t one that would immediately come to mind … but, well, here we are.<\/p>\n

In an\u00a0Instagram post captioned<\/a>, “Dave is #teamtaylor,” the iconic talk show host declares, “Taylor Swift, I don\u2019t think in the history of show business, in the history of popular culture, we\u2019ve ever witnessed anything like this. Tremendous. She fills stadiums around the world and puts on a three-hour show.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe live in a world now where all we hear is nonsense and ugliness, and the nonsense can\u2019t be more nonsensical and the ugliness, God hopes it can\u2019t get any uglier, but that\u2019s all we hear,\u201d he continued. \u201cThat\u2019s all we hear.”<\/p>\n

“So now, here\u2019s Taylor Swift, who is a glowing bright light of goodness in the world, and she starts dating Kelsey<\/strong>\u00a0Grammer<\/strong>,” he said, deliberately confusing the name of her boyfriend with the\u00a0Frasier<\/em>\u00a0actor.\u00a0 He then described how some football fans complain that they don’t want to see Taylor at the games — accurate — and how Swifties don’t want her to date a football player — not exactly accurate.<\/p>\n

However, he continued, \u201cI say to both camps, \u2018This is such a lovely thing. Shut up! It\u2019s good for the footballers. It\u2019s good for Taylor Swift, and it\u2019s something positive and happy for the world.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

He concluded, \u201cAlso, politically, Taylor Swift is a huge force, and I think just wants to see people do the right thing. So God bless Taylor Swift and” — he said jokingly — “Kelsey Grammer.\u201d<\/p>\n
