On Monday it was reported that Swift chose to ‘bite her tongue’ and not hit back at Golden Globes host Jo Koy, after she was reportedly left unimpressed by the comedian’s ‘tacky jab’ about her relationship with Travis.

The star had been innocently enjoying a drink on Sunday night when Koy, 52, made an unexpected quip about her appearances at the tight end’s Kansas City Chiefs games.

He said: ‘Welcome back. As you know, we came on after a football doubleheader. The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL – on the Golden Globes fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.’

The camera then cut to a shot of a stoic Swift sipping on her drink and failing to crack a smile.

‘Taylor nor her girls found Jo Koy’s tacky jab very funny,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively. ‘Clearly neither did the audience and her fans. It made her uncomfortable as it would have anyone.’

The source continued: ‘At the end of the day his entire performance was the actual joke. He should know who the audience is before coming for them. Taylor just bit her tongue.’

While Swift chose not to respond, the insider teased that her athlete boyfriend, 34, might not be so diplomatic about the moment.

‘She doesn’t have time to clap back at anyone, nor does she want to,’ the source added. ‘She cannot say the same about Travis, who might have some words on his podcast about this.’

The quip immediately sparked backlash from fans who staunchly defended their idol on Twitter.

Taylor and Blake were also joined by gal pal Zoe Kravitz, 35

‘Cause of death for Jo Koy: That look Taylor Swift gave him as she sipped her drink,’ one joked.

Another wrote: ‘Does the fool who’s hosting the Golden Globes and just made a joke about Taylor Swift realize millions of viewers had to Google who the hell is Jo Koy!???’

Koy addressed the reaction at the Billboard after party, telling Extra: ‘It was a compliment, like she could be more intimate tonight, that’s all.’

It was a disappointing night for Swift who lost out to Barbie for the new Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award.

Swift was a gracious loser as she led the standing ovation. However her fans were far less forgiving and flooded social media with complaints that she was robbed of a prize, despite claiming it had been ‘invented’ for her.
