LOS ANGELES — Comedian Jo Koy’s joke about singer Taylor Swift at the Golden Globe Awards has sparked reactions on social media. Swift, who was nominated in the new blockbuster film category for her concert film “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,” made an appearance at the award show. During the ceremony, Koy called attention to her, saying, “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL… On the Golden Globes we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.” Cameras caught Swift’s reaction as Koy mentioned her name, but she kept her facial expressions subdued and took a sip of her drink.

The NFL received criticism for focusing on Swift during broadcasts, but they maintained that most of their content remains focused on the games and players.
