Taylor Swift says she doesn’t concern herself with NFL fans who get sick of her frequent presence at Kansas City Chiefs games to support Travis Kelce.

In an interview with Time for the outlet’s “Person of the Year” feature earlier this month, Swift said she is unaware of when the cameras focus on her at NFL games, and she isn’t worried about it when they do.

“I’m just there to support Travis,” she said. “I have no awareness of if I’m being shown too much and p****** off a few dads, Brads, and Chads.”

Predictably, the “dads, Brads, and Chads” quote gained a life of its own—so much so that Fox’s NFL crew made a satirical ad mocking Swift’s haters based on the rhyme.

In the video, a man who introduces himself as “Chad Bradson Sr.” speaks to the camera with a serious expression on his face.

“Taylor Swift said in an interview she has no awareness she’s being seen too much during Chiefs games, pissing off dads, Brads and Chads,” the man says. “Well, I’m a dad. And these are my sons, Chad and Brad.”

In the video, the trio all wear Kelce’s 87 jersey, and all three adopt a similarly earnest air as they make an impassioned plea for their mother to return home.

“Our mom went to a Taylor Swift concert six weeks ago and never came back,” the man who introduces himself as “Brad Bradson” says. “That’s why, me, Chad and dad are mad.”

An online article referred to the purported news about the singer-songwriter as “a surprising turn of events.”

On Jan. 30, 2024, the SpaceX Fanclub Facebook page posted that the NFL was considering banning 12-time Grammy Award-winning recording artist Taylor Swift from performing at Super Bowl LVIII. The post showed an image consisting of photos of Swift and a wide shot of a football game above a bolded headline.

The post’s pinned comment led to an article on esspots.com that began as follows:

Breaking: NFL Reportedly Considering Banning Taylor Swift from Super Bowl, “We’re Tired of Her”

In a surprising turn of events, the National Football League (NFL) is reportedly considering banning pop superstar Taylor Swift from performing at the Super Bowl, with a high-ranking official quoted as saying, “We’re tired of Taylor Swift.” This news comes as a shock to many, given Swift’s immense popularity and her status as one of the world’s biggest music icons.

However, this story was not a factual recounting of real-life events. The article originated with a website that describes its output as specializing in satire, parody and humor, as follows:

Here are the facts: Super Bowl LVIII takes place on Feb. 11, 2024. The matchup will pit the San Francisco 49ers against the Kansas City Chiefs. Swift is expected to possibly be in attendance to support her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

She is not, however, part of the announced halftime show for the 2024 game, nor is she one of several performers who are scheduled to sing or provide music. The halftime show will be headlined by eight-time Grammy winner Usher.
