The Japanese Embassy in Washington has addressed concerns regarding Taylor Swift’s ability to attend the Super Bowl on February 11th due to her concert tour and relationship with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce. In a statement on X (formerly known as Twitter), the embassy assured that Swift should comfortably arrive in Las Vegas before the game if she departs Tokyo in the evening after her concert.
The Chiefs secured their spot in the Super Bowl after defeating the Baltimore Ravens last week. Swift has been frequently seen supporting Kelce at his games, often appearing on NFL cameras in a skybox. The embassy’s statement emphasized that despite her tour commitments, Swift will be able to attend the game in Las Vegas to cheer on the Chiefs.
Some conspiracy theories have emerged on social media, particularly from the conservative side, accusing the NFL of fixing games in favor of the Chiefs to benefit Swift and Kelce. These theories speculate that Swift and Kelce may eventually endorse President Biden’s reelection campaign. Such claims have gained attention on platforms like X (formerly known as Twitter), with individuals questioning the Super Bowl outcome and potential political endorsements.
CNN anchor Jake Tapper addressed these conspiracy theories on his show “The Lead,” humorously noting that the far-right conspiracy theorists are not adhering to Taylor Swift’s advice to “Shake It Off.” Tapper dismissed these claims as baseless speculation.
