Swift laughed away the booing, perhaps thinking to herself, “Why you gotta be so mean?” (Get it?!)
Serena Williams also came to her rescue, writing on X, “I love you @taylorswift13 dont listen to those booo!!”

Williams was later seen in the game dancing in Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show. The tennis icon was once rumored to be an ex-girlfriend of Drake, which, considering Lamar’s current feud with the rap star, would be seen as another diss.
Despite the boos, Swift has been good for NFL business. Kansas City Chiefs owner Clark Hunt recently spoke to CNBC about how she has lifted the league.
“Well, I think indirectly, the NFL has seen an impact,” he said. “Certainly, our fan base took a big leap forward last year — particularly with female, specifically young female fans. I think we had something like a 30% growth in our fan base, which is pretty significant even for a team that won the Super Bowl. So you have to definitely give Taylor a little bit of credit for that… We still get a lot of eyeballs — this year, we’ve had several games and broken records, and I think Taylor is a little bit a part of that.”
