Kayla Nicole Apologizes for Resurfaced 'Hurtful' Tweets, Says Toni Braxton Costume Wasn't a Swift-Kelce Jab

She says she deleted the posts, along with her X account, after fan scrutiny linked her Halloween tribute to personal drama.

Overview

  • In an Instagram Story on Nov. 13, Nicole called her past tweets “ignorant, hurtful and completely wrong” and said they do not reflect who she is today.
  • She confirmed she deleted the tweets and her entire X account, saying she refuses to keep that energy alive or contribute to a cycle of hate.
  • Screenshots circulating from roughly 2010–2014 appear to show homophobic slurs and derogatory comments about Asian, Mexican and Indian people.
  • On her Pre-Game podcast, she denied taking a shot at Taylor Swift or Travis Kelce, describing the look as a Toni Braxton homage inspired in part by a childhood friend named Taylor and urging listeners to revisit the video.
  • Coverage continues to tie the controversy to fan readings of Swift’s song “Opalite,” which Swift has not publicly addressed.
