On Thursday, McNutt apologized to Swift while speaking to TMZ.
“Swifties, I appreciate your passion. I said what I said,” McNutt said. “And here’s the deal, if I’m wrong. I am wrong, apparently, because she’s got an OG Amar’e Stoudemire jersey.”
“I misspoke. I did not know. But here’s the deal, context, I literally just did a piece on celebrity row. I’ve been with this organization for five years. I know these folks. Ben Stiller. His wife, Christine (Taylor). Spike Lee. All of them. Fat Joe,” she added.
“And we just saw her in Cleveland with her fiancé (Travis Kelce). Obviously, Travis supports the Cavs. She didn’t have any Knicks paraphernalia, so I did not know of her Knicks loyalty. But shoutout, T-Swift. We can be united in orange and blue, like, it’s fine.”
