Travis Kelce has sparked outrage among Taylor Swift fans after his podcast New Heights posted a survey containing multiple references to the singer.
The questionnaire, created by podcast network Wondery, has been labelled "insane" by Swift's supporters on social media.
Many fans have accused the Kansas City Chiefs star of "pathetic clout-chasing" following the survey's release.
The controversy centres around several Swift-related questions that some fans believe show the podcast is using the singer for marketing purposes.

The backlash comes despite the podcast's popularity with "Swifties" since Swift began dating the American football tight end.
In the survey, listeners were asked to select up to three reasons why they started listening to New Heights.
Among standard options about football commentary and the Kelce family dynamic were several Swift-related choices.
One option read: "I was drawn to the prospect of hearing details and clues about Taylor Swift's life and her relationship with Travis."
Another stated: "I like feeling like a part of the community that supports Taylor's happiness outside of her music."
These Swift-centric questions particularly angered fans who felt they crossed a line.
The survey was produced by Wondery, the network that hosts the Kelce brothers' podcast.

Swift fans took to social media to express their displeasure with the survey's content.
"This is so f***ing gross," one fan commented.
Another questioned: "This is going to be so embarrassing. Why would they do this?"
A third fan directly addressed Kelce: "I've never seen more pathetic clout-chasing, Travis. Why did you let Wondery ask about Taylor in relation to your podcast?"

Others raised concerns about the intent behind the questions, with one asking: "The questions about Taylor and their relationship (are) so weird and gross... what's the goal here?"
Many Swift supporters believe the podcast is now "using Taylor for marketing".
