After last weekend’s Super Bowl, there’s a lot to digest. The halftime show by Usher was well-received, the match was as exciting as it gets, and people have strong feelings about the advertisements and trailers that played during the game.
Next, we have Taylor Swift. After months of news surrounding her rumored affair with Travis Kelce, it seemed inevitable that the music star would become a central figure in the media’s coverage.
However, another rumor, allegedly spread by former NFL player Brandon Marshall, has emerged amid the numerous reports detailing the couple’s post-match demonstrations of passion… and Kanye West, the famously estranged music producer, is involved in it.
Former NFL wide receiver Marion Marshall was in attendance at Sunday’s Super Bowl at Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium, sharing a suit with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Marshall played in the league for thirteen seasons.
After that, on Monday morning’s Paper Route podcast, Marshall made an outrageous claim, implying that Kanye West had been booted out of the Super Bowl by Taylor Swift due to the rapper’s purchase of seats in front of her suite.
“So Kanye West pulls up to the Super Bowl,” Marshall said, apparently mistaking Swift for Katy Perry at first. This is according to Page Six. When Katy Perry’s booth was being shown, Kanye West’s face would be there because he bought a ticket right in front of it. He even wore a mask with his brand on it.
“So Taylor Swift gets pissed off [and] she makes a call or two — everybody is involved — [and] he gets kicked out of the stadium,” the former NFL player corrected himself, adding.
After West and his wife Bianca Censori were photographed in the stands during the CBS broadcast of the match, many are doubting the veracity of Marshall’s remarks, which, if accurate, would be massive.
“Then it’s time to revisit the beef,” Marshall added, bringing up the incident at the 2009 VMAs when Kanye interrupted Swift’s victory speech by saying Beyoncé should have received the award instead.
That was his intention, then. Yesterday, he made an attempt to sit down in front of Taylor Swift.
“This is a completely fabricated rumor,” Kanye West’s representative told TMZ, dismissing Marshall’s accusations as baseless. That is not accurate.
