After Taylor Swift was booed at the Super Bowl, many fans have suggested the reaction wasn’t as it seemed. While it appeared the crowd was booing her, some argue the boos may have been due to the high number of Philadelphia Eagles fans in the stadium.
Taylor Swift attended the game to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, as the Kansas City Chiefs played the Eagles. When the camera cut to her, she was met with a chorus of boos, which many believed was directed at her. However, some fans pointed out that the majority of the crowd was likely Eagles supporters.
Despite the negative reaction, Taylor remained composed, giving a quick smirk and side-eye in response. Some fans defended her, joking that she might even write a song about the experience. Others clarified that the boos likely stemmed from the Eagles-heavy crowd, not personal animosity toward Taylor.
Fans also pointed out the irony, as Swift is from the Philadelphia area and grew up a lifelong Eagles fan, with her father, Scott, being a big supporter of the team.
