Taylor Swift sang, danced, drank and suffered until the last second in the Las Vegas box until celebrating on the field with her partner Travis Kelce the victory of the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl on Sunday.
The singer, a phenomenon that transcends the borders of music, was also the protagonist of the greatest spectacle in American sports, in which the Chiefs revalidated their status as NFL champions by beating the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in a tachycardia overtime. .
Accompanied in the box by a collection of friends and celebrities, Swift left no stone unturned until Mecole Hardman’s touchdown with three seconds remaining secured the Chiefs’ third title in the last five years.
As in previous games, the artist quickly went down to the grass to hug and kiss Kelce, one of the pillars of the Chiefs dynasty along with Patrick Mahomes.
It was the moment most anticipated by many fans who did not usually follow the American Football League (NFL) but who embarked on it this season to follow the media romance.
The couple lived a dream week as Kelce, one of the best players in his position in history, kept his promise to live up to Swift’s successes at the past Grammys, in which she became the artist with more Album of the Year awards.
“Long live Las Vegas!”, an excited Kelce sang with barely a voice as he collected the trophy on the podium, before a half-smile of perplexity from Swift.
– Dances, hugs and empty glasses –
The pop diva managed to fly to the United States on time after performing on Saturday in Tokyo in one of the last concerts of her ‘The Eras Tour’ tour.
Wearing a dark outfit and a red Chiefs jacket over her shoulder, the artist arrived at Allegiant Stadium accompanied by rapper Ice Spice and actress Blake Lively.
Swift also wore a gold necklace with Kelce’s number 87, who was warming up with his teammates on the grass at the time.
At the start of the game, the singer was already settled in a luxury box with Lively, Spice and Kelce’s family: her parents Donna and Ed and her brother Jason, a player for the Philadelphia Eagles.
With regular shots on big screens and television, Swift drew the most attention from the usual constellation of stars who attended the first Super Bowl in the gaming capital, including basketball player LeBron James, musicians Paul McCartney and Jay-Z and the actor Leonardo di Caprio.
The singer got up from her seat in every action of the Chiefs, who began the game with a 0-10 deficit and missing clear opportunities.
Kelce, who had assured that he was not bothered by the global attention due to his relationship with Swift, went crazy on the sidelines, shouting and grabbing the arm of his veteran coach Andy Reid.
While nerves were running high among the reigning champions, the audience cheered Swift when she appeared on the screens drinking for several seconds before suddenly putting down her empty glass.
In the second half, the singer was already able to celebrate important plays by her boyfriend for the Chiefs who managed to come back on the scoreboard to force overtime and beat the powerful 49ers in the last seconds.
– Trump’s message –
Among the many dimensions of Swift’s prominence in this Super Bowl was also a political plot related to the November presidential elections.
The relationship between the singer and the player was the subject of conspiracy theories from voices on the right who claim that it is part of a plot to influence the elections and that it would culminate with a victory on Sunday in Kansas City and Swift’s public support for Joe Biden.
Former President Donald Trump, the likely Republican candidate, addressed the singer on Sunday, saying that any support from Swift to Biden would be “disloyal,” given that his administration pushed for copyright legislation in 2018 that is widely seen as beneficial to artists. .
“Joe Biden didn’t do anything for Taylor, and he never will,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social network. “There is no way she could support corrupt Joe Biden, the worst and most corrupt President in the History of our Country, and be disloyal to the man who made her so much money.”
“Other than that, I like her boyfriend, Travis, although he may be a liberal and probably can’t stand me,” she added.
