She commands a fan base numbering in the tens of millions, has been one of the most famous

women on the planet over the past two years, and has a reputation unblemished by scandal or defamation.

Yet even Taylor Swift can find herself the subject of an en masse booing, apparently.

During last night’s Super Bowl LIX, featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs,

the superstar songstress seemed to be minding her own business when she became a target for the crowd.

Swift – at Caesars Superdome, New Orleans to support boyfriend Travis Kelce of the Chiefs – looked to

mouth “What is going on?” to friend and fellow artist Ice Spice.

The unexpected booing began when the camera panned to Swift in her box, subsequently beaming

her image on the big screen before the 75,000 strong crowd.

Needless to say, Swift was as taken aback as anyone, and the negative reaction has posed

the question: just why did it happen in the first place?

Well, as is always the case these days, it wasn’t long before the incident was being debated

on social media. Moreover, no sooner had the video of Swift being booed hit the

internet, than did fans on X attempt to decipher exactly what was going on.

“Eagles fans are booing her. She’s originally from Philly area but obviously rooting for Travis and chiefs,” one person wrote.

Another added: “The booos are from eagles fans aka the opposite team she supports this is normal.”
