Betting odds are moving due to Taylor Swift’s recently confirmed presence at Super Bowl LIX this coming Sunday. And although Kendrick Lamar is the headliner for the halftime show, Swift's attendance has sparked rumors of a possible cameo during the performance.
In a recent exclusive interview with People Magazine, Jason Kelce, the brother of Kansas City Chiefs captain Travis Kelce, confirmed that Swift would be attending to cheer on the tight end, saying, “I mean, I don’t want to speak for everybody, but I think obviously, our whole family. I believe, obviously Trav and Taylor, and his family and his friends. I mean, Trav always travels like, full.”
The confirmation of her presence sparked rumors and Taylor Swift odds that she might make a cameo during Lamar's show. These have only been intensified by the Super Bowl’s tradition of surprise guest appearances during the halftime show.
Swift has never before performed at a halftime show, and there is currently no concrete evidence that suggests she will join Lamar on stage, but the two artists share a musical history together.
Swift and Lamar collaborated on a remix of ‘Bad Blood,’ one of Swift’s most iconic songs. The original version was released in 2014, but a recent re-release in 2023 has brought it back to the forefront. Swift has stated a special connection to the remix and expressed her gratitude for Lamar joining her in the re-release.
“The reality that Kendrick would go back in and re-record Bad Blood so that I could reclaim and own this work I’m so proud of is surreal and bewildering to me,” the singer said.
Swift at the Super Bowl to Support Boyfriend Travis Kelce
With the Eras Tour recently completed, it is uncertain whether the singer will make a surprise performance during the halftime show.
She will, however, continue to support Kelce from the side. Throughout the season, she has attended several games played by the Kansas City Chiefs. Her most recent attendance was the game against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game on Jan. 26, which the Chiefs won 32–29 to secure their place at Super Bowl LIX.
During Super Bowl Opening Night at the Caesars Superdome, the Kansas City Chiefs star admitted that Swift inspired him.
“I better hold up my end of the bargain. She’s up there being the superstar that she is and never taking no for an answer and always working her tail off,” Kelce said.
Despite not possibly appearing at the halftime show, the pop star has made many appearances on sportsbooks nationwide. Taylor Swift-themed prop bets are in full swing, and bettors are enjoying every moment of it.
