Conservative commentator Tomi Lahren faced the wrath of her fellow MAGA supporters after calling pop star Taylor Swift a "wholesome and talented performer" who didn't deserve to get booed at the Super Bowl.

Swift—who has been in a relationship with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce since 2023—was booed by some members of the crowd at New Orleans' Caesars Superdome, where the Kansas City Chiefs took on the Philadelphia Eagles in Sunday's big game.

Notably, President Donald Trump, one of Swift's major critics, was in attendance. He erroneously claimed in a post on Truth Social that Swift was "BOOED out of the Stadium" and said that "MAGA is very unforgiving!"

But Lahren went against the grain, issuing a surprisingly supportive statement about Swift, whose booing she refuses to "celebrate":

"I know I see this differently than a lot of my conservative friends, but I didn’t like nor do I celebrate the booing of Taylor Swift. What did she do to any of y’all? I get that she endorsed Kamala but that’s her right."
"Are we supposed to hate someone because they have different political opinions? Overall, she is a wholesome and talented performer, who, by all accounts, is kind to her crew and a nice person. I don’t celebrate that kind of thing being booed just because she voted for someone that I didn’t."

You can see her post below.

Many of the MAGA faithful did not take kindly to her post and promptly attacked her for it.



Before last year's Super Bowl, conservative conspiracists suggested that the NFL rigged the season for Swift to attend, allegedly orchestrated by then-President Joe Biden and the CIA to boost ratings and promote a liberal political agenda. Swift has been in a relationship with Kelce since September 2023 and is a regular presence at his games.

The conspiracies surrounding Swift gained further attention after Trump claimed he made her "so much money" by signing the Music Modernization Act in 2018, which updates copyright law "to make statutory licensing more fair for creators and more efficient for digital music providers," according to the U.S. Copyright Office.

Trump targeted Swift and speculated about her potential endorsement of Biden in the early days of the 2024 election cycle. In characteristically self-promoting fashion, Trump claimed credit for Swift's financial success, citing his involvement in passing the legislation.

Trump argued that Swift should acknowledge his contribution and labeled supporting Biden as "disloyal." He said there is "no way" Swift could endorse Biden "...and be disloyal to the man who made her so much money."

Trump also made headlines during his 2024 presidential campaign after declaring "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT" in a Truth Social post mere days after Swift endorsed former Vice President Kamala Harris—a major development because Swift has used her massive profile to encourage young voters to participate in the electoral process.
