Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark opened up about a famous photo that she took while watching her favorite football team alongside arguably the biggest pop star in the world.
Earlier this year, Clark was spotted alongside pop icon Taylor Swift as the 'Cruel Summer' singer watched her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, play for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Clark and Swift cheered on as the Chiefs beat the Houston Texans in the AFC Divisional round back in January.
Months later, Clark attended a live taping at WNBA All-Star weekend of the 'A Touch More' podcast - hosted by sports power couple Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe.
Bird, a women's basketball icon, and Rapinoe, a women's soccer idol, asked Clark to spill the details about their conversation in the luxury suites at Arrowhead Stadium.
Clark said that the photo captured a moment where Swift was asking her for an explanation about a penalty call.
Caitlin is asked what she and Taylor talked about lmfao
'Honestly I love football and I know a lot about football. So I was like telling her why they threw a flag. But in the best way I don't even know everything.
So I was just explaining things but yeah that was really fun.' pic.twitter.com/HTjAiaw8qZ

'Honestly I love football and I know a lot about football. So I was like telling her why they threw a flag,' Clark told Bird and Rapinoe.
'But in the best way I don't even know everything. So I was just explaining things but yeah that was really fun.'
'I'm a big Chiefs fan, so getting to spend time with Taylor and then also Travis played really well that game, the Chiefs won, it was the playoffs.'
Kansas City would eventually reach Super Bowl LIX, where they were decimated by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Clark has been dealing with a nagging groin injury which kept her out for five games in recent weeks.
Before the All-Star Game, the injury flared back up and kept her out of the festivities in Indianapolis.

One Day in Southport forgets the tragedy at the heart of the film

One Day in Southport (Channel 4) purported to be a documentary about the devastating tragedy that unfolded at a Taylor Swift -themed dance class on Merseyside a year ago. Rather like the appalling crime itself, however, the film was soon hijacked by other issues entirely. The result was grimly gripping but ultimately unsatisfying. Bafta-winning documentarian Dan Reed – director of Leaving Neverland and The Truth vs Alex Jones – investigated the mass stabbing, its febrile aftermath and the nationwide riots which followed. It proved too much to adequately examine in 51 minutes Reed began his story in simmeringly powerful style. A survivor relived the unfathomable knife attack and read aloud from her quietly furious letter to the perpetrator in prison. As she courageously did so, the camera lingered on her haunted eyes and shaking hands. This was intercut with dashcam and CCTV footage of a masked, hooded 17-year-old taking a taxi to Hart Space dance studio, silently getting out without paying and calmly entering the building. It was deeply chilling to watch, the stuff of a low-budget horror movie, before all hell broke loose. We heard screams, sirens and the testimony of parents who arrived on the scene to sights and smells they will never be able to forget. As misinformation about the knife man's identity spread online, the Southport community took to the streets. Angry mobs clashed with police. A local mosque was surrounded and set alight, while the terrified imam and worshippers hid inside. Ground-level visuals – a pacy mix of news footage, phone camera clips and social media reportage – were immersive, stressful and scary. It was instructive to witness how, in the absence of accurate intel about the murderer's identity, irresponsible speculation filled the vacuum. The assumption took hold that he was an illegal immigrant and a Muslim extremist. The authorities were too slow to disclose that Axel Rudakubana was actually Cardiff-born with Rwandan Christian parents. We saw how anti-immigration protests and riots spread to 27 towns and cities across the UK. Fuelled by far-Right rhetoric, Muslim neighbourhoods and asylum seekers were targeted by rampaging mobs. In post-apocalyptic scenes, a migrant hotel was stormed and a car full of Romanian workers vandalised. The Government and law enforcement were completely unprepared, scrambling to catch up with the escalating crisis. When they finally did act, they over-compensated with 1,800 rioters arrested, fast-tracked through courts and sentenced to a total of more than 100 years in prison. There were wider questions raised here. YouTuber Daniel Edwards described the protests as the 'consequences of not listening to the public'. Videographer Wendell Daniel argued that post-Covid disaffection isn't about race but about social class. Topics tantalisingly touched upon included two-tier policing and mistrust of mainstream media. Yet framed within a film about a tragedy which felt quickly forgotten, both the personal and the political were done a disservice. As the stricken Southport families mourned or recovered in hospital, narrative focus was elsewhere. We heard about flashbacks, trauma and survivors' guilt, but all too fleetingly. Rudakubana's victims condemned the rioting and rejected the politicisation of the girls' murders. 'It didn't represent me at all,' said one survivor. You wonder what they will make of this strangely scattergun film.

Southport stabbing victim's harrowing five-word message to Axel Rudakubana

A 14-year-old survivor of the horrifying Southport stabbings has read out her victim statement in a chilling Channel 4 documentary on based on the devastating event Channel 4 viewers were left with tears streaming down their faces after the chilling and poignant victim statement from a survivor of the Southport stabbings was aired in the new documentary titled One Day In Southport. ‌ One Day in Southport delivered a harrowing account of the July 29, 2024, tragedy that unfolded during a Taylor Swift-themed dance class at Southport's Hart Space. Seventeen-year-old Axel Rudakubana stormed the venue, stabbing three girls, Bebe King (6), Elsie Dot Stancombe (7), and Alice da Silva Aguiar (9), to death and injuring ten others, most of them children. ‌ Rudakubana was arrested immediately and later admitted guilt before he received a life sentence with a minimum term of 52 years. The film centres on one teenage survivor's experience, blending first-hand accounts from victims, witnesses, and locals to explore how the violence, conspiracy, and extremism made an already devastating incident even more so in the aftermath. ‌ In the days that followed, baseless rumours falsely naming the attacker as a Muslim asylum seeker spread rapidly across social media. Fueled by the misinformation, riots erupted in multiple towns and cities across the UK as immigrants were left fearing for their lives. Middlesbrough saw one of the worst incidents on August 4, when a planned protest exploded into chaos. Over 1,000 people descended on the area, smashing windows, torching cars, and attacking homes. The documentary resonated deeply with viewers, many describing it online as 'devastating,' 'urgent,' and 'impossible to forget.' When ‌ One particularly heartbreaking scene saw the focus survivor of the attack read aloud her victim statement after she addressed Rudakubana in court after the harrowing stabbings. In an incredibly powerful statement, the 14-year-old survivor wrote: "We think you're a coward." The brave young girl went said: "Physically I've healed but my scars remain as a reminder of what you did to me, to us all. My sister and I are lucky we got to come home. Your actions mean that Alice, Bebe and Elsie didn't. ‌ "No sane person could do that, it's sickening what you did, going in there knowing you're going into a room full of defenceless children. Give me a reason for what you did. Arming yourself with a weapon and stabbing children. I hope you spend the rest of your life knowing that we think you're a coward." Earlier in the documentary, the teenager broke down in tears after she blamed herself for not being able to save the three little girls - one of whom was her little sister's best friend. The teenage survivor, only identified by her eyes, told the story from her memory as she detailed how she was stabbed both in the arm and in the back. ‌ "I felt like I was dying," the survivor shared in the heartbreaking admission. She then broke down after confessing that she blames herself for not being able to save the girls - despite having been stabbed herself. 'I regret it every day that I wasn't able to save her. That I wasn't able to get her out," she sobbed. Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, after watching the chilling stories of the victims unfold, viewers shared their heartbreak. "This poor girl has to live with this trauma for the rest of her life. It's so sad that she blames herself even in the slightest. Absolutely devastating." ‌ "What a brave young lady. Her parents and her sister should be so proud of her. What an incredible victim statement," someone else wrote. "I am truly sick to my stomach watching this. How did this happen to such innocent little babies? Bawling my eyes out and thinking of their poor families," another viewer shared. Another echoed: "God, this is such a hard watch, but so important too." Another Channel 4 viewer typed: "Those poor little girls must have been terrified. To think they had their whole lives ahead of them. Such a powerful documentary. Fair play to Channel 4."
