“We weren’t in [a] relationship, but this is probably one of my favorite crazy Kayla stories, because I don’t have that many,” she told Reese. “But I’m a scorpio, and I have that crazy in me, though.”
Nicole explained, “I was dating a guy, and he dumped me through a text message, and he dumped me for this singer/actress.”
The influencer didn’t identify the other woman, but instead said that she “was famous at the time.”
“Dumped me for her. Lied about it for months, then popped out with her and became this public thing,” Nicole continued, adding that fans viewed them as a “celebrity iconic relationship.”
The influencer told Reese that she was “devastated” about the breakup after she’d moved to New York to be with the unidentified man.
The Chicago Sky star assured her viewers that they wouldn’t guess who her guest was talking about, to which Nicole asked, “Who cares?” if they do.
Nicole said her petty moment came when she dressed up as the singer and actress for Halloween that same year.
“I dressed up as her. I dressed up as that lady for Halloween,” she said with a smile. She added the “viral” pictures were still “there somewhere” on the internet.
Although Nicole never named anyone, it didn’t take long for web sleuths to dig up old photos of her dressed as Teyana Taylor when she starred in Kanye West’s 2016 music video for “Fade.”
Taylor, 33, was married to New York Knicks player Iman Shumpert from 2016 to 2023. The former couple share two young daughters together.

On Friday, Oct. 11, the singer and actress seemingly responded to the rumors by posting her recent accomplishments — including several acting gigs — in an Instagram carousel set to Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off.”
“I know 2025 gone hate to see a Taylor coming!! ❤️🔥🌹🎥🎬🎞️ 💸,” she captioned the post.
Nicole previously dated the 34-year-old pop star’s current boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
