Caitlin Clark reacts to Taylor Swift fans breaking the internet
Caitlin Clark called it.
The Indiana Fever star and loyal Swiftie was among the 1 million-plus viewers who saw Wednesday’s highly anticipated episode of “New Heights” with Taylor Swift glitch out as the show approached its second hour — a situation Clark had pondered earlier in the day.
“Swifties so powerful we broke the internet,” Clark, 23, wrote Wednesday night on X in response to her message from the afternoon that read, “Are we sure YouTube isn’t going to crash tonight?”
Before “New Heights” went dark, Swift spoke candidly with boyfriend Travis Kelce and his brother, Eagles legend Jason Kelce, about their relationship and her upcoming album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” which drops Oct. 3.
The 14-time Grammy winner had been discussing her 12th studio album when the “New Heights” screen suddenly faded to black.
“We hit a glitch but will be back shortly!!!” the official “New Heights” account wrote Wednesday night on X.
“Shoutout all the 92%ers and swifties for actually helping us break the internet.”
Clark, an avid Chiefs fan, joined Swift, 35, at Arrowhead Stadium in January during Kansas City’s playoff run.
The pair sat next to each other in a suite as the Chiefs advanced to the AFC title game with a 23-14 win over the Texans in the divisional round.
“Taylor is very sweet and very kind, and it’s just a good reminder that people in our position… we are very normal,” Clark said on the “Swarmcast” podcast that month. “Sometimes our lives aren’t normal, but we are very normal people, and we enjoy doing fun things, too.”
Kelce, who has been dating Swift since 2023, sat near Clark, 22, during an Eras Tour show in Indianapolis last fall.
Clark, currently in her second WNBA season, has been sidelined since July 15 with a groin injury.
