Kayla Nicole Apologizes for Resurfaced ‘Hurtful’ Tweets After Toni Braxton Halloween Post

The sportscaster says the costume honored Toni Braxton and rejects claims it targeted Taylor Swift or Travis Kelce.

Overview

  • Nicole posted an Instagram Story on Nov. 13 apologizing for past tweets, calling them ignorant, hurtful, and completely wrong.
  • She said she deleted the old posts along with her entire X account to avoid contributing to a cycle of online hate.
  • TMZ and the New York Post reported the resurfaced early‑2010s tweets contained homophobic and racist language.
  • On her Pre-Game podcast, Nicole said the Halloween look was a tribute to Braxton, stressed she is not in the business of tearing other women down, and noted Braxton commented on her post.
  • Many fans had read the costume as a swipe at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce based on the song’s lyrics, an interpretation Nicole denied.
