What was supposed to be a night of celebration in Kansas City has turned into a silent, stunned wake. As the Philadelphia Eagles obliterate the Chiefs, 24-0 at halftime, watch parties across Chiefs Kingdom have taken on an almost funereal atmosphere.
At Caesars Superdome, the television cameras cut to a worried-looking Taylor Swift, sitting in the stands as her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and Patrick Mahomes struggle through a brutal first half. Swift, who has become a fixture at Chiefs games this season, appeared just as shocked as the rest of Kansas City fans witnessing the nightmare unfolding on the field.
Halftime Reset: Kendrick Lamar Takes the Stage Amid Chiefs’ Collapse
As the first half mercifully ends, a small army of stagehands rushes onto the field, preparing the Superdome for what may be the only highlight of the night for Chiefs fans—Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Halftime Show.
At 37 years old, Lamar is making history as the first solo hip-hop artist to ever headline the Super Bowl halftime stage. The five-time Grammy winner is coming off a huge week, having just secured five Grammy wins—cementing his status as one of the most dominant artists in the game.
For Chiefs fans, the halftime show may be the only reason to keep watching. If Kansas City doesn’t find a way to stop the bleeding in the second half, this could go down as one of the most lopsided Super Bowls in NFL history.
Will Mahomes and the Chiefs mount the greatest comeback ever, or is this game already over? One thing’s for sure—Kansas City needs a miracle.
