Patrick Mahomes has a theory about why Taylor Swift won’t perform during the Super Bowl halftime show. Though fans would love to see Swift grace the halftime event, Mahomes makes a good point.
Patrick Mahomes Says It Would be ‘Hard’ for Taylor Swift to Perform During Super Bowl Halftime
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes gave his take on why Swift can’t perform during the Super Bowl halftime show in 2025 — or any year her boyfriend plays in the big game.
During a February 3 press conference ahead of the 2025 Super Bowl, Mahomes was asked, “Everyone wants to see a Taylor Swift halftime show, can you help us make that happen?”
The quarterback weighed in with his perspective, explaining, “As long as Trav’s playing and we’re in the Super Bowl, it’s going to be hard for her to do the halftime show.”
Mahomes added, “So hopefully Trav keeps playing and we keep making it to the Super Bowl.”
Fans Hoped Taylor Swift Would Join Kendrick Lamar for the Halftime Show
Of course, Swift’s fans hoped that the singer could make a splash during the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show. With rapper Kendrick Lamar headlining, many thought it made sense for Swift to join him so they could sing her hit song “Bad Blood.”
A fan on X noted, “There’s speculation that Taylor Swift might make a surprise appearance at the Super Bowl halftime show since Kendrick Lamar was featured on her ‘Bad Blood’ remix, which was a big hit in 2015.”
They added, “Besides, she’s already going to be there anyway.”
Don’t count on that happening, however, as Swift will be at the Super Bowl strictly to cheer on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
Travis Kelce Gushes Over Taylor Swift ‘Never Taking No for an Answer’
There’s also buzz about Kelce proposing to Swift at the Super Bowl. When a reporter at the Super Bowl’s opening night event on February 3 asked if he planned to propose, the football star was coy with his answer.
“Wouldn’t you like to know?” he responded with a smile.
While Kelce wasn’t up for answering that question, he did gush about his girlfriend’s incredible work ethic. “I better hold up my end of the bargain. She’s up there being the superstar that she is and never taking no for an answer and always working her tail off,” Kelce said.
He added, “I better match that energy for sure.”
