Overview
- Nicole appeared in a Sleeper commercial during the Feb. 8 Super Bowl with Tiffany Haddish and Ben Simmons playing 'ex-communicators' who help clients get 'ex-communicated' after public breakups.
- A chyron identified Nicole as the 'ex of a certain NFL player,' and a scripted exchange ended with Simmons saying 'I said swiftly,' a line widely interpreted as a wink to Taylor Swift.
- The ad included cameo testimonials from Offset and Love Island USA’s Ace Greene, and Sleeper later posted the full spot on X.
- Coverage documented immediate pushback from some Kelce and Swift fans on social media, criticizing Nicole over the perceived digs.
- Nicole dated Travis Kelce from 2017 to 2022; Kelce is now engaged to Swift, attended the Super Bowl as a spectator, and neither he nor Swift has publicly responded in the reporting.
