New York Knicks guards Tyler Kolek and Deuce McBride called Taylor Swift their fakest celebrity fan, saying her courtside appearances were performative.

Knicks guards Tyler Kolek and Deuce McBride called Taylor Swift their fakest celebrity fan during an NBA 2K stream. When asked who was the fakest celebrity fan they encountered at Madison Square Garden, Kolek said 'Maybe Taylor Swift?' and noted he had not seen her at other games. McBride agreed with the assessment.

Kolek elaborated that while Swift had 'a lot going on', her appearances seemed performative rather than reflecting genuine fandom. He contrasted her with other celebrity regulars such as Ben Stiller, Tracy Morgan and Spike Lee, whom he described as 'usually solid'.

Swift attended Game 4 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden, sitting courtside alongside Alana and Este Haim while the Knicks defeated the San Antonio Spurs in a 29-point comeback to win the championship. The Daily Mail Sport reports she also attended games during the Eastern Conference Finals and at some Knicks games in 2014.
