Taylor Swift faced an unexpected wave of boos at Super Bowl 2025 when her image appeared on the jumbotron at the Caesars Superdome. The pop star, who attended the game in support of her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, seemed taken aback by the reaction from Philadelphia Eagles fans.
According to lip reader NJ Hickling, Swift turned to rapper Ice Spice and asked, “Aw, what? What’s going on?” as the crowd’s reaction unfolded. The moment quickly went viral, with fans dissecting her stunned expression and subtle side-eye at the camera.
Swift’s Game-Day Style and Viral Reaction
Dressed in a white bodysuit, bedazzled jean shorts, and thigh-high boots, Swift accessorized her game-day look with a “T” charm around her neck, a nod to Kelce. The Grammy-winning artist had arrived in New Orleans on Friday and was seen enjoying a night out with friends ahead of the big game.
However, her enthusiasm took a hit as the Chiefs struggled throughout the game. The Eagles dominated from the start, ultimately securing a 40-22 victory. Cameras caught Swift looking visibly stressed as the game progressed, especially as the Chiefs failed to find momentum on offense.
Kelce Reacts to Super Bowl Loss and Retirement Speculation
After the game, Kelce admitted his team’s struggles, telling reporters that the Chiefs “haven’t played that bad all year.”The star tight end acknowledged that the team “couldn’t get it going offensively” and struggled to generate a spark against the Eagles.
As speculation about Kelce’s future in the NFL grows, quarterback Patrick Mahomes addressed the possibility of his teammate retiring. “I know he still has a love for the game,” Mahomes said. “He’ll get to spend some time with his family and make that decision on his own.”
Kelce, who previously hinted that he hopes to play for at least three more seasons, has yet to announce any plans to step away from football.
Swift Faces Back-to-Back Disappointments
The Super Bowl loss came just days after Swift’s own setback at the Grammy Awards, where she left empty-handed despite receiving six nominations. The singer, who has been dating Kelce since mid-2023, attended the game after skipping the awards ceremony, where Kelce was also absent due to pre-game preparations.
Despite the boos and the Chiefs’ disappointing finish, Swift has not commented publicly on the experience. However, her viral reaction has only fueled further discussions about her presence at NFL games and her influence on the sport’s growing viewership.
