The singer also revealed she had a “crush” on the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, but could no longer view him the same.

“Oh, my gosh, I am so mad at her because I had a crush on him,” McEntire told ABC'S TODAY.com.

The music star, who has been promoting her new book, Not That Fancy: Simple Lessons on Living, Loving, Eating, and Dusting Off Your Boots, admitted: “Now I can’t have a crush anymore because he’s dating her."

“I was so devastated,” she says, referring to Kelce as her "boyfriend that cheated on" her.

McEntire, who is a fan of the Chiefs, said her liking of the NFL star has even become a subject of playful banter with her boyfriend, Rex Linn.

She said: “We were watching him play because I love the Chiefs and I love Patrick, and I’d say: ‘Oh, he’s so cute. Oh, he’s so cute,’”

But ever since Kelce appeared to find love with the Blank Space singer, Linn would tease McEntire about her crush.

McEntire went on: “When he and Taylor started dating, Rex said: ‘Your boyfriend’s got another girlfriend.’ I said: ‘Rub it in.’”

Swift stole the spotlight yesterday as she attended the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Denver Broncos and was spotted talking to Travis Kelce's dad, Ed Kelce.

Swift was photographed watching in awe as Travis Kelce tied a personal record of 100 first-half yards.

During the game, the pop star was seated in a box next to Kelce's mother, Donna, whom she met at a game a few weeks ago.

Swift has been spotted enthusiastically supporting Kelce alongside Donna, while also chatting with Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

The discussion about Kelce's dating history has gained significant attention, especially after he was seen leaving Arrowhead Stadium with the A-list singer following the Chiefs' game against the Chicago Bears.

The photos come after she ignored an ongoing feud between her and Beyonce's fans to attend the premiere of her Eras Tour movie with the Crazy In Love singer.
