Everything Taylor Swift Did at Super Bowl LIX

Taylor Swift and a stadium full of people? It just makes sense. Back at the Super Bowl for the second time in a row, Swift supported boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs as they lost 22-40 to her hometown team the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans February 9. So, the alchemy wasn’t quite strong enough for a three-peat. Swift showed up with her squad, got booed by overexcited Eagles fans, and made an enemy of President Donald J. Trump. Maybe that Kendrick Lamar halftime performance is just what she needed to restart her villain arc and bring back Reputation (Taylor’s Version). Below, everything Taylor Swift did at Super Bowl LIX.

This is a developing story.

Why is Donald J. Trump involved?

In the middle of the game, the president reshared a post with footage of Taylor being booed compared to his own applause. Do you think Kanye sent it to him? Maybe Elon dropped it in the group chat.

Serena Williams is on Team Taylor

GOAT to GOAT, Serena Williams tweeted “don’t listen those booo” after the crowd couldn’t handle Swift’s first appearance on the big screen. Now, why is the tennis star at the football game? She popped out during Kendrick Lamar’s halftime performance, C-walking to “Not Like Us,” a diss about her ex. What a time to be alive. Except for the Chiefs, who are down by a record 24 points. And Drake.

Casually running into Shaboozey

There’s traffic up there in those suites. Swift apparently got distracted by Shaboozey on her way back to her suite with Mama Kelce.

A reminder to stream ‘Karma’

Do you think Ice Spice just had, like, a really good time last year?

Outfit update: The shorts are bedazzled

Game on, jacket off. Travis Kelce changed out of his oversized coat, so Taylor did, too, revealing sparkly denim shorts she must’ve stolen straight off the back of a fan at the Eras Tour.

Anyway, she’s been joined by her family, brother Austin and dad Scott, who’s in full Chiefs regalia. It’s so end game, dare I invoke reputation (Taylor’s Version).

Was Taylor Swift booed?

She’s not used to hearing that. Miss Swift appears to mouth “What’s going on?” when the crowd boos at her being shown on the jumbotron. Eagles fans are just getting excited after the first touchdown, that’s all.

How to watch Taylor Swift watch the Super Bowl

It’s Tubi, baby! The Fox-owned free streaming service has all the coverage in 4K, for no money whatsoever, no credit card needed. “Much the way 2023’s Super Bowl ads were designed to announce its arrival as a serious player on the streaming playing field, Tubi is eyeing this year as an opportunity to recruit new users and introduce its existing customer base to new content,” Vulture’s Josef Adalian writes in an interview with the company’s chief marketing officer Nicole Parlapiano.

Let’s get into her outfit

She’s wearing a cream oversized blazer and thigh-high boots, avoiding an overt allegiance to the Chiefs until you get to her red bag. But look closely below … the “T” around her neck is the same piece of jewelry she wore on her upper thigh at the Grammys last Sunday.

Taylor Swift and squad arrive

“Hello,” Swift said as she strolled into the Superdome with her super squad. Casual. Ice Spice, who also attended last year’s game, led the way, followed by the Haim sisters in bright Chiefs red. Even her security guard, Drew, is in a Kansas City letterman. This squad rolls deep.

Welcome to New York Orleans

Taylor Swift’s private jet touched down in New Orleans on February 7, despite no official confirmation she’ll be attending Sunday’s Big Game. That night, she and Travis went on a double-date with Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, presumable to talk Trump strategy. The next day, per TMZ, she got dinner with Kylie Kelce, Alana Haim, and Danielle Haim (at Italian restaurant Gianna, Swift’s cuisine of choice). The Haim sisters weren’t on our list of Super Bowl suite predictions, but Este and Danielle have previously attended Chiefs games with their longtime friend.
