Why was Taylor Swift booed at the Super Bowl?
The moment has left many wondering why Taylor Swift was booed at the Super Bowl at all. Thankfully, we live in an age of social media and many were quick to share their theories.
The top one? She was surrounded by a huge crowd, half of which was made up of fans that weren’t on the same team as her boyfriend.
“Everyone right now “the crowd boos Taylor swift!!?” Guys.. the crowd is 80% eagles fans. Of course they booed Taylor,” said one fan on X.
Don’t worry, our girl is loved deeply, and she knows it.”
How did fans react?
It didn’t take long for fans to spring to Swift’s defence.
“Taylor Swift is literally the anchor being of our Universe!!!” yelled one X user, comparing the singer to Wolverine’s status in Marvel’s X-Men universe.
