- Donald Trump celebrated
- Taylor Swift booed
- Half-time show disappoints
Without a doubt, this year’s Super Bowl was packed with surprises and controversy. Donald Trump made waves in the stadium as the sitting U.S. president, while Taylor Swift faced a much different reception. The pop icon was met with boos from Philadelphia Eagles fans, sparking widespread discussion. These reactions were likely amplified by Swift’s public support for Democrat Kamala Harris and her relationship with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce. Serena Williams, who surprised the audience with a dance routine during the halftime show, showed her support for Swift, telling her to ignore the negativity: “I love you, Taylor Swift! Don’t listen to those boos!!!”
A halftime show that fell short
The halftime show, traditionally a highlight of the Super Bowl, failed to meet expectations this year. Kendrick Lamar, the first rapper to headline solo, delivered a technically solid performance, but it didn’t match the spectacle of previous years. Despite support from SZA and an elaborate stage design, the “wow” factor was missing. “I always wanted to be great. It’s an honor for me to perform with her,” Lamar said about his collaboration with SZA.
Donald Trump celebrated
Trump received a thunderous ovation when he appeared on the stadium screens during the national anthem. Fans of both teams, the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, erupted in cheers, marking a rare moment of unity in an otherwise divided political climate. The positive reception could be seen as a reflection of his ongoing influence as the presidential race looms.

Taylor Swift booed
In stark contrast, Taylor Swift was met with boos when she was shown on the big screens. The reaction from Eagles fans may have been driven by her relationship with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, as well as her outspoken political stance. Her surprised expression and poised reaction quickly went viral on social media, highlighting the tension that often arises when celebrities mix entertainment with politics.
A Super Bowl of highs and lows
The Super Bowl in New Orleans was a rollercoaster of moments, from Trump’s celebrated appearance to Swift’s unexpected boos. Despite star power, Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show struggled to live up to past performances. This fusion of politics, music, and sports made the event one of the most talked-about in recent years—and one that won’t soon be forgotten.
