Taylor Swift’s prominent appearance in a recent NFL promotional video has sparked controversy among fans of the league and Travis Kelce, who plays for Kansas City. The singer-songwriter appears in five different clips in the video, which was released ahead of the opening game of the upcoming season. This has led to criticism from some fans who feel the video gives too much attention to Swift and does not do enough to highlight other famous NFL players.
Taylor Swift stirs controversy with NFL appearance
Although Taylor Swift has been praised for bringing more attention to NFL games, some fans are upset that she appears more than any other player in a recent promotional video. The Daily Mail reported that several well-known NFL players, such as quarterbacks Brock Purdy and Joe Burrow, were not in the video at all.
These clips show her attending games with Travis Kelce’s mother, kissing him on the field, and celebrating at the Super Bowl. While some fans have praised her involvement, others found it completely ‘ridiculous.’
“Being shown 5 times in a 28 second clip, doesn’t make sense. Being shown twice is surprising. As the game goes on, but in that clip she was shown more times than any other player in the league,” one person commented on social media. “Actually I came to see my favorite player in the promo but I only saw Swift, so shameful,” another said. “Tell me why Taylor Swift has the most screen time in this hype video. What the hell is this?” another said. “Completely absurd,” suggested more on.

Kells’ team representative claimed, “These documents are completely false and fabricated and have not been created, issued or authorized by this agency.”
