It's the Super Bowl, millions of people all around the world watch it, and would have watched if Taylor Swift were slapping burgers in Scranton, PA.
The "Tay Phenomenon" has nothing to do with the NFL. It's her over the top popularity and it long predates Travis Kelce. Shit, man, there were Congressional hearings over Ticketmaster because of her fans and that was over a year ago.
Music critics rave over every album she releases. Every. Single. One.
It's just not possible for them all to be that good. What's more likely is that any criticism blows up their social media accounts and they don't want to deal with it.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
Follow Ups:
I have never heard a single Taylor song. Not. Even. One. And the halftime show was the worst in recent memory.
Granted the Super Bowl draws a huge audience without Taylor, but the NFL and Media didn't miss a chance to promote it to hopefully attract her audience to boost viewers. I get it. But it had zero influence on my enjoyment. Zero.
Like I said elsewhere in this thread, her music isn't awful. It just isn't memorable. Yet, critics rave. Every album is a classic, best ever. Her fans are totally obsessed and there are multiple millions of them. People spent tens of thousands of dollars on her concert tickets, including airfare to multiple venues. Why? Anybody think she'd do the same for one of her fans?
BTW, I changed the channel to reruns of Who's Line Is It Anyway? during the half time show.
The only way I'd waste time with a Super Bowl half time show would be if John Coltrane leapt from his grave and took the gig.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
. . . I read that she gave a rather substantial amount of cash to a couple of local hospitals. If I were one of her fans, I'd feel good about liking her! ;-)
