Kelce’s\u00a0reaction to his girlfriend getting booed in the stadium was revealed<\/span>\u00a0with a source telling Dailymail.com, ‘Travis was aware of Taylor getting booed and he felt helpless. Seeing the look on her face got to him.’<\/p>\n

Kelce’s reaction to his girlfriend getting booed in the stadium was revealed with a source telling Dailymail.com, ‘Travis was aware of Taylor getting booed and he felt helpless. Seeing the look on her face got to him’; seen above at 2025 Super Bowl<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The insider added, ‘It’s clear to many that the Eagles fans feel she is a traitor of sorts – being from Pennsylvania and even wearing Eagles gear prior to dating him.<\/p>\n

‘Travis believes that it was unnecessary for Trump to take a dig at her especially after he voiced that he was honored for a president to be there.’<\/p>\n

The source continued,\u00a0‘After Taylor being shut out for a\u00a0Grammy<\/span>\u00a0and Travis losing the biggest game of the year it just hasn\u2019t been a good week for them.<\/p>\n

‘But he knows that even though this is not a happy ending to the season having her love gives him so much joy.’<\/p>\n

Afterwards, other stars came to the defense of Swift and shared their thoughts on social media as an offer of support.<\/p>\n

Serena Williams – who made a surprise appearance during Kendrick Lamar’s Halftime Show – penned: ‘I love you @taylorswift13 dont listen to those booo!!’<\/p>\n

Days after Taylor was booed and the Chiefs’ loss at the Super Bowl,\u00a0People\u00a0reported that the pair have plans to take a step away from the spotlight.<\/p>\n

Days after Taylor was booed and the Chiefs’ loss at the Super Bowl, People reported that the pair have plans to take a step away from the spotlight; seen in January in Kansas City<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The insider added Taylor and Travis will ‘have a break together’ and stated that the Super Bowl loss\u00a0‘was upsetting for everyone.’<\/p>\n

Kendrick Lamar notably took on the role of the Halftime Show performer and sang his diss track Not Like Us amid his ongoing feud with Drake.<\/p>\n

Fans have since called for Swift to headline the Super Bowl Halftime Show and an insider\u00a0revealed to DailyMail.com the singer’s stance on the job.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

‘She doesn’t want to do it now until Travis is fully retired as she would like to be at the game supporting him rather than performing at it,’ the source expressed.<\/p>\n

‘When she eventually performs at it, she wants all her loved ones to be able to experience it. And as long as Travis is in the league, the Chiefs have a chance to be in the game, so she is going to wait to do it till he is officially done.’<\/p>\n

Taylor never performed the Halftime Show due to its affiliation with Pepsi. Swift notably has a longtime partnership with Coco-Cola.<\/p>\n

‘If Pepsi wasn’t the sponsor of the halftime show for so many years, then Taylor Swift would have potentially already been the performer,’ the source said.<\/p>\n

‘But she has had a long-standing partnership with Coke and sponsorship with them, so that was one glaring reason she was never able to do it.’<\/p>\n

However, the insider expressed, ‘Taylor is and always will be considered. And if she wants to do it, she will get the gig.’<\/p>\n

‘The NFL and Jay are throwing other names out there and they will have someone confirmed on their side of things this summer and then announce it in the start of next season or at the latest Thanksgiving.<\/p>\n

‘Taylor is not in talks but is always a phone call away because the NFL knows they would be stupid if they didn’t at least entertain the fact to her that she should do it.’<\/p>\n

The source continued, ‘They will continue to have their feelers out there and if she wanted to do it, again she would absolutely get it.’<\/p>\n

There’s a very good argument to be made that Taylor Swift is the most popular\u00a0woman\u00a0in the world at the moment but that hasn’t come without it’s share of controversy.<\/p>\n

After getting booed by fans in New Orleans at Feb. 9’s Super Bowl, the Grammy-winning singer-songwriter has\u00a0reportedly\u00a0lost over 100,000 followers on Instagram.<\/p>\n

Swift’s high-profile relationship with Chiefs tight end\u00a0Travis Kelce\u00a0has made her the target of\u00a0right-wing\u00a0conspiracy theories \u2014 and even attacks from our\u00a0president\u00a0\u2014 and her appearances at\u00a0NFL\u00a0games have also rubbed some football fans the wrong way.<\/p>\n
