I’m not going to lie, the interview with Taylor Swift with Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show” broadcast Monday evening was on the Lite side – at one point, they talked about bread for a long time. However, the extended interview on the show’s website contains real news.
During one of the Fallon brand games he played with the guests, Swift was invited to say what rumors he had found online were true, and the first was that she had refused an offer to be the half-time interpreter of the Super Bowl because she would not have rights on performance images. On the broadcast, she makes a grimace but she is not seen say anything about the problem.
However, in the extended version of the interview published on social media and the show’s website, she explains at length on the reasons why she does not occur in Big Game, as had been said before Bad Bunny was officially announced as the half-time artist 2026.
After having denied with a flat “no” that the rights of the images were the reason why she refused to occur, Swift explained that her management had only received non -specific questions about this subject of Roc Nation, which programs the entertainment of the Super Bowl, rather than a formal offer. She added that, whether or not it is an offer, she would be too concerned about her fiancé, the chiefs of Kansas City, Travis Kelce, to think of even happening in the middle of the Super Bowl (which does not necessarily mean that she presumed Whether he or the chefs will be in the game: half-time artists are announced too early in the season to find out which teams will play).
Speaking of Roc Nation, led by Jay-Z, she said: “Jay-Z has always been very good for me-our [business] The teams are very close. They sometimes call and say: “What does she feel … [she murmurs something vague meaning ‘whatever’]. And it is not, like a official Offer or a conversation of the conference room, more “How is it generally?”
“And we are always able to tell him the truth, it is that I am in love with a guy who makes that play sports that real field, “she explained.” Like, [professional football] is violent failures. They are gladiators without swords. It is dangerous. I am, [for] All season, enclosed On what this man does on the ground. Can you imagine if it is there every week, putting his life in play, doing this very dangerous sport, very high pressure and high intensity, and I am like [she puts on a ditzy voice and face],, “I wonder what my choreo should be?” I think we should make two verses of “Shake It Up”, in “Blank Space”, in “Cruel Summer”, it would be great! “”
She laughed before adding: “It has nothing to do with Travis – he would love that I do it. But I’m just too locked up. ”
So – Swifies will have to wait for a performance at half -time from the Super Bowl … until further notice.
