Breaking new: Megyn Kelly slams country music star Zach Bryan for Taylor Swift apology.dieuy
Megyn Kelly was not impressed with country music star Zach Bryan after he apologized and deactivated his social media account in response to backlash for saying that he liked Kanye “Ye” West more than Taylor Swift.
“Oh my God, I’m sorry, Zach Bryan, where are your balls? Mankind would like to know,” the journalist who hosts the SiriusXM podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show” said during her Thursday broadcast.
Bryan, the country singer-songwriter known for hits including “Heading South” and “Condemned,” provoked Swift fans after he posted an item on X indicating that he preferred the rapper known as Ye over their iconic pop star.

“Eagles > chiefs, Kanye > Taylor,” Bryan wrote on his X account on Sept. 17, adding: “Who’s with me.”
The Eagles was a reference to the Philadelphia football team while the Chiefs are their rivals from Kansas City. Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plays for the Chiefs.
Earlier this week, the 28-year-old Bryan recanted, offering a lengthy apology on Instagram in which he claimed that he was drunk when he posted the item on X that infuriated the “Swifties.”
“This was very dumb, Zach,” Kelly said on her show on Thursday.
Kelly then took issue with the backlash, saying: “The nerve. That sexist pig…”
