Jo Koy Admits His Taylor Swift Joke Was 'Weird'

Comedian Jo Koy has addressed Taylor Swift’s reaction to the joke he made about her at Sunday’s Golden Globes ceremony.

Last month, Swift told Time magazine that she doesn’t pay attention to how often or how little the TV cameras show her at the games.

“I’m just there to support Travis,” she said. “I have no
