Taylor Swift Reportedly ‘Uneasy’ About Being The Center Of NFL Attention
Taylor Swift is facing criticism for seemingly stealing the NFL spotlight, and it’s leaving her feeling both guilty and uncomfortable. Meanwhile, her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, is reportedly working hard to manage the situation with his Kansas City Chiefs teammates as the scrutiny intensifies.
“It’s only natural the NFL wants her in this promo, she’s bringing in so many fans and this is a business, of course they want to use her to promote," a source told Life & Style. "But there are some people in the organization that are grumbling that it takes away from the team, and obviously the die-hard fans aren’t too happy either and they’re making their voices heard, which makes Taylor feel uneasy."
"She doesn't want to upset anybody in any way, she’s just a very excited and supportive girlfriend and when the NFL approached her, she didn’t think twice about lending her support," the insider added.

The NFL released a 30-second promo video on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, last month. Taylor Swift makes four appearances in the video, capturing the spotlight and leaving sports fans angry.
"STOP SHOWING TAYLOR SWIFT WE DONT CARE," one X user said.
"Taylor Swift was shown 4 times in this 28 second clip of football being back," another responded.
The "Red" singer has shown her support for Travis at multiple Kansas City Chiefs games throughout the 2023-2024 season. “They really are very, very happy together,” an insider told People Magazine of Taylor and Travis's relationship in July. “They’re very serious about each other, and the relationship feels different for both of them.”
Taylor Swift Responds To Backlash From NFL Fans
Following Taylor Swift's debut at a Chiefs game last fall, she was prominently featured during the broadcast and in subsequent games, sparking frustration among some NFL fans.
“I don’t know how they know what suite I’m in. There’s a camera, like, a half-mile away, and you don’t know where it is, and you have no idea when the camera is putting you in the broadcast, so I don’t know if I’m being shown 17 times or once,” she told TIME Magazine. “I’m just there to support Travis. I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads and Chads.”
