There’s still very few details that have emerged from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s large, albeit still private, wedding weekend, but one story that has been shared involves Girls creator Lena Dunham, a close friend of the bride, and a seemingly divisive joke made during a speech.
The Daily Mail reports that Dunham gave a speech during the couple’s Thursday night smaller gathering at the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden. She reportedly joked during that speech that “American football is just straight guys reenacting gay porn,” which caused a slew of mixed reactions from gasping to laughing.
Given Kelce’s line of work, tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, there were NFL players in attendance throughout the weekend. After Dunham’s speech, Swift reportedly called her long-time friend a genius.
The high profile couple officially tied the knot in a ceremony at Madison Square Garden on Friday (July 3), surrounded by their family and friends. The ceremony took place at 5 p.m. ET, and the reception was expected to run as late as 4 a.m. ET on Saturday, according to a copy of a city permit. Just after the couple had married, a heavy rain began falling in New York, thought to be a sign of good luck.
