AceShowbiz - Adele has come to Taylor Swift's defense amid criticism over NFL coverage of her. The "Easy on Me" hitmaker called out those complaining about Taylor being at the Kansas City Chiefs games to support her boyfriend, Travis Kelce.
The 35-year-old voiced her support for her fellow singer during her "Weekends With Adele" residency in Las Vegas. "I think I want the Chiefs to win just because Taylor Swift goes for them," said the British musician, whose prediction was met with cheers.
"And all of you complaining about Taylor being at the game, get a f**king life," Adele continued to declare at the Saturday, February 10 show. "It's actually made it a bit more enjoyable to watch because I have no idea what's going on."
Taylor is expected to be at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas to support Travis and the Chiefs, who are on a mission to capture their third Lombardi Trophy in five years. A win over the San Francisco 49ers would give the 34-year-old athlete his third Super Bowl ring.
Aside from Adele, Drew Barrymore is also a fan of the high-profile relationship of Taylor and Travis. "She's brought football for dads and daughters to bond," the talk show host explained to Entertainment Tonight. "There are good things coming out of this and there is a love story at the center of this game, and that's exciting. And I would call that a win-win."
Taylor herself has responded to criticism over her presence at NFL games. In her TIME Magazine profile after she was named Person of the Year by the magazine, the Grammy winner insinuated that she's not to blame for taking the screen time. "I don't know how they know what suite I'm in," she told the publication.
"There's a camera, like, a half-mile away, and you don't know where it is, and you have no idea when the camera is putting you in the broadcast, so I don't know if I'm being shown 17 times or once," the "Anti-Hero" songstress explained from her point of view. Noting that she's "just there to support Travis and his team,"s he went on stressing, "I have no awareness of if I'm being shown too much and pissing off a few dads, Brads, and Chads."
