Travis Kelce Announces Departure from Elon Musk’s ‘X’ App, Calling It a ‘Toxic Waste Dump’ After Hurtful Comments About Taylor Swift

In a stunning move, NFL star Travis Kelce announced that he is leaving Elon Musk’s social media platform, X (formerly Twitter), citing the platform’s toxic environment and a series of hurtful comments made about his rumored girlfriend, pop icon Taylor Swift. Kelce, who has become a prominent figure both on and off the field, made the announcement after facing a wave of criticism following disparaging remarks made about Swift by users of the platform, some of whom targeted the star athlete’s personal life and relationship with the singer.

Kelce Slams ‘Toxic’ Atmosphere on X

In a post shared on his official social media accounts, Kelce expressed frustration over the hostile atmosphere that has increasingly characterized the X platform since Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter in 2022. “I’ve decided to leave the X app,” Kelce wrote, “It’s become a toxic waste dump of negativity and hate, and frankly, I’m tired of seeing personal attacks aimed at people I care about. The comments directed at Taylor have crossed a line, and I’m done with it.”

The departure comes in the wake of a string of offensive comments made on X by users who criticized Swift’s relationship with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.
