Itās been a few days now since the Philadelphia Eagles thrashed the Kansas City Chiefs at the eagerly-anticipated Super Bowl on Sunday (9 February).
The Super Bowl saw a number of dramatic moments ā including Kendrick Lamar performing that song during the halftime show as well as Taylor Swift getting booed by the crowd when she was shown up on the jumbotron.
It didnāt take long for Donald Trump, whose appearance marked the first time a sitting American president has attended the major sporting event, to share his thoughts on the uncomfortable incident.
The 78-year-old Republican leader shared a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, which read: āTrump gets massive cheers at the Super Bowl while Taylor Swift gets booed.
āThe world is healing!ā
Prior to such comments, however, Swiftās boyfriend, Travis Kelce was asked what he thought of Trumpās attendance at the game, to which he said it was a āgreat honourā.
He continued: āI think, you know, no matter who the president is, I know Iām excited because itās the biggest game of my life, you know, and having the president there, you know, itās the best country in the world. So, thatād be pretty cool.ā
And itās clear his previous comments havenāt gone down well with fans, with many rushing to social media to slam the Chiefs tight end following the 40-22 loss to the Eagles.
One X user hit out: āMaybe if Travis Kelce didnāt say he was honoured to play in front of Trump then he would have caught that ball.ā
A second claimed: āTravis Kelce gave the entire Chiefs team bad juju after saying he was honoured that Trump was gonna be there.ā
And someone else added: āThe way Travis Kelce said it was an honour to have Trump watch him play just to lose this bad OOOO IM CACKLINGGG!ā
Following the booing ordeal, Kelce seemingly wasnāt too happy with the jeering towards his girlfriend, as a source close to him reportedly told MailOnline: āTravis was aware of Taylor getting booed and he felt helpless. Seeing the look on her face got to him.
āHe always protects her and it broke his heart. He was already having a tough night and the fact that the stadium was predominantly Eagles fans didnāt help. Travis knows that this hurt her and anyone can see this.ā
They also responded to Trumpās response to Swift being booed: āTravis believes that it was unnecessary for Trump to take a dig at her especially after he voiced that he was honoured for a president to be there.ā
The source concluded: āAfter Taylor being shut out for a Grammy and Travis losing the biggest game of the year it just hasnāt been a good week for them.
āBut he knows that even though this is not a happy ending to the season having her love gives him so much joy.ā
