In exciting news for Swifties, Taylor Swift may be heading for a Super Bowl performance while Travis Kelce is on the field. A source revealed that talks are already underway for the singer to headline next year’s halftime show, which is set for February 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara. The insider said, “Negotiations are happening with Taylor to potentially do the next Super Bowl.” If all goes as planned, contracts are expected to be signed in October, with promotional shoots locked in well ahead of game day.
Source claims ‘negotiations are happening’ with Taylor Swift for Super Bowl performance
Taylor Swift’s anticipated performance at the Super Bowl is creating a buzz. If the singer does perform, she would be joining a list of superstar names that includes Beyoncé, Rihanna, Madonna, and Lady Gaga. The timing may also be personal since her fiancé, Travis Kelce, is about to start what many believe could be his last NFL season. A source told the Daily Mail that the feat will be a “shared memory” for the couple if the Kansas City Chiefs make it to the championship again.
The buzz isn’t coming from one report alone. Rob Shuter’s #ShuterScoop previously reported that Beyoncé and Jay-Z have also been encouraging Swift to take the gig. “Beyoncé telling her this is the stage. Jay knows Taylor listens to Bey. He’s betting that respect seals the deal,” a source told Shuter. Another insider pointed out that “the Super Bowl needs Taylor more than she needs it,” noting her record-breaking Eras Tour and the upcoming release of her new album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”
Even the NFL itself has dropped hints. Commissioner Roger Goodell recently addressed the speculation, saying, “We would always love to have Taylor play. She is a special, special talent, and obviously, she would be welcome at any time.” When asked whether it was already in motion, he simply answered, “Maybe.”
Nothing has been locked down yet, but with Swift, Roc Nation, and the NFL all circling the idea, the chances of seeing her performance at Super Bowl 60 look stronger than ever.
