- Taylor Swift and Haim's Knicks-themed T-shirts got the attention of Nicole Kidman.
- The actress reacted to their "Knickole Kidman" top, sharing, "My girls!"
- Swift, Este Haim, and Alana Haim all wore custom Knicks pun shirts at Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Knickole Kidman, ehem, Nicole Kidman has spoken. And, apparently, she loves a good pun.
The Oscar-winning actress shared her reaction to Taylor Swift and the Haim sisters' custom T-shirts at Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs.
Swift, Este Haim, and Alana Haim rocked Knicks-themed shirts to the matchup at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday, each featuring a play on the team's name. Swift wore a "Stevie Knicks" top, Alana donned a "Knickelback" shirt, and Este sported an ode to "Knicole Kidman" — all featuring the Knicks' blue-and-orange color scheme.
The trio of pals posted a video of their custom tees on Instagram, dancing to Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Want to Have Fun" while showing off their ensembles. "Girls just wanna have PUN," the girls shared on Haim's social media page. (Este and Alana are in the band with their sister, Danielle Haim, who was not in attendance at the game.)
As photos of the T-shirts made the rounds, Kidman shared footage on her Instagram Stories Thursday, writing, "Right there with you girls!"
She also reposted the aforementioned dance video, writing, "My girls! I just wanna have fun!"
To note: even die-hard Knicks fan Mariska Hargitay slipped into a "Stevie Knicks" shirt courtside.
** has reached out to Kidman for further comment, as well as reps for Fleetwood Mac songstress Nicks and the band Nickelback.

Alana Haim, Este Haim, Taylor Swift, and Mariska Hargitay attend Game Four of the 2026 NBA Finals between the San Antonio Spurs and the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden on June 10, 2026.
The Knicks are now 3-1 in the best-of-seven series as they secured another win after defeating the Spurs in epic style. The team pulled off the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history to win 107-106 after trailing by 29 points at halftime. They're now one win away from victory.

Despite ESPN analyst Monica McNutt calling Swift a fake fan, the Grammy winner is a longtime supporter of the Knicks and has attended games at Madison Square Garden dating back to 2014. She previously posed with former Knicks stars Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire, and has performed at the iconic venue multiple times.
Reportedly, she's even set to marry fiancé Travis Kelce at the sports and concert venue this summer — but only time will truly tell.
