Taylor Swift made headlines at the 2024 Super Bowl held at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans when she appeared on the Jumbotron, garnering an unexpected response from the crowd. The celebrated pop star was there to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, during the game aired on FOX, FOX Deportes, NFL+, and Tubi on February 9. However, when the camera caught Swift in the stands, the reaction was anything but warm, as she was met with loud boos from the audience.
Despite the surprising display of disapproval, Swift maintained her composure, responding only with a raised brow and a side-eye. Her calm demeanor amidst the boos was captured on camera, along with a viral moment where she chugged an entire beer. The NFL shared the latter moment on their official Instagram account with a playful caption, "@taylorswift's reaction 😂". In the stands with Swift were Ice Spice and her friend Ashley Avignone, providing some company during what was a tough first half for Kelce and his team.
Amidst the mixed reactions, tennis pro Serena Williams took to Twitter to support Swift following the incident. Williams tweeted, "I love you @taylorswift13 dont listen to those booo!!", offering a public show of solidarity for her friend. While Swift might not have received universal approval from those at the Superdome, Williams’ message of encouragement highlighted that Swift had supporters rallying behind her.
The first half of the game posed challenges for Kelce and his teammates, adding tension to an already charged atmosphere. Despite this, Swift remained unfazed by the crowd's reaction, focusing instead on supporting her boyfriend.
