Well, that was unexpected!
After a historically dominant season in which they lost only two games (and only one in which Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce started), the Kansas City Chiefs were absolutely trounced in Super Bowl LIX.
If you’re a fan of the Philadelphia Eagles (or, for that matter, any other team in the NFL) then you probably loved what you saw.
But if you’re a member of Chiefs Kingdom — or a Swiftie — then you might be feeling like a member of the Tortured Poets Department.
Taylor’s First Super Bowl Loss
Taylor and Travis Kelce started dating in the summer of 2023. And the following autumn, Travis helped the Chiefs win their second consecutive Super Bowl.
Again, the Chiefs have only lost two games in the year since, and one of them was completely meaningless.
So Taylor is not accustomed to this sort of football-related disappointment.
But hey, in a sense, she’s now been initiated into true NFL fandom. After all, anyone who’s not a Chiefs fan has been forced to grow accustomed to heartbreak in recent years.
The Taylor Factor
There’s been a tremendous amount of attention paid to Taylor’s NFL presence in recent weeks. But the pop icon kept her Super Bowl plans under wraps.
Multiple media outlets (including this one) noted that Taylor would not be joined by Blake Lively at this year’s big game
Swift has reportedly distanced herself from her longtime friend amid Blake’s highly publicized feud with Justin Baldoni.
Tonight, Taylor was joined by celebrity guests such as Ice Spice and the Haim sisters. But the mood was considerably less celebratory this time around, as Travis and the Chiefs were absolutely trounced by Jalen Hurts and the Eagles.
Fly Eagles, Fly
But while Swifties might be mourning the first major career setback of Taylor and Travis’ romance, Eagles fans are currently reveling in one of the great upsets in NFL history.
Taylor was booed at tonight’s game, but we’re sure she still has plenty of fans in the City of Brotherly Love.
In the meantime, however, Eagles Nation is enjoying a much-deserved celebration!
Grease those lamp posts, Philadelphia! It’s time to party!
