Kristen Saban engaged in some social media sparring, taking a swipe at Kelly Stafford, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. The exchange stemmed from Kelly's comments involving the coverage of pop star Taylor Swift and her relationship with NFL player Travis Kelce.

In a now-deleted tweet Kristen wrote,

"Kelly I really do like you, but respectfully, stfu."

This retort came after Kelly expressed frustration with the media attention surrounding Swift and Kelce, saying on the "Morning After" podcast:

“I don't know if I want to see another four months of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce coverage.”

Like Kristen, Kelly herself is known for her candid remarks. The tension between Kelly Stafford and Kristen Saban escalated over Swift's new album release, "The Tortured Poets Department," which coincided with a video documenting Matthew Stafford's emotional decision to return to the NFL for the 2024 season.

Swift and Kelce's relationship has continued to garner attention since the duo started dating in September 2023.

One particular song on the album, "The Alchemy," caught Kristen's attention. She speculated whether it could be interpreted as a love song dedicated to Kansas City Chiefs tight end, Travis Kelce.

“Did we just get our first love song about Travis on The Alchemy!?!?! #TSTTPD.”

The track's lyrics which the fans were most sure about being directed at Travis Kelce had references to football and winning streaks. However, some lyrics made man rule out that possibility, surmising the song was about someone else.
