Jimmy Kimmel wants Taylor Swift to shake off President Trump’s trolling during the Super Bowl 2025.
After the 78-year-old poked fun at the pop star for getting booed by Philadelphia Eagles fans when she appeared on the Caesars Superdome jumbotron Sunday, the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host clapped back.
He clarified Trump’s Truth Social statement, which read, “The only one that had a tougher night than the Kansas City Chiefs was Taylor Swift. She got BOOED out of the Stadium. MAGA is very unforgiving.”
Kimmel, 57, clarified during his monologue Monday that Swift “didn’t get booed out of the stadium” over the weekend.
“Unlike you, she stayed for the whole game,” he continued, referencing Trump’s early exit following the first half.
Kimmel also pointed out that “it was the Eagles fans who were booing” Travis Kelce’s girlfriend before quipping, “But you’re right, it’s all about you. It’s always all about you.”
He went on to call the “Apprentice” alum “jealous” of Swift and explained, “She has more followers and more money and no kids than he does.”
When the Grammy-winning singer was booed on Sunday while showing support for the Kansas City Chiefs, she gave the camera an intense side-eye.
“Aw, what? What’s going on?” Swift asked Ice Spice, according to a lip reader.
Trump was also booed during the New Orleans game, with one X user joking that it “was pretty s–tty” to show the politician during Jon Batiste’s national anthem performance.
Another wrote, “Before the anthem started I said, ‘They’ll probably show Trump during this to make it less likely for him to get booed,’ but you could still clearly hear … a jumbled mess of cheers and boos.”
Trump, notably, was the first sitting president to attend a Super Bowl.
The Eagles demolished the Chiefs during the blowout game, winning the championship game 40-22.
Before the matchup, Trump told Fox News that he was supporting the Chiefs because of quarterback Patrick Mahomes — and his “phenomenal” wife, Brittany Mahomes, whom he called a “MAGA fan.”
He previously praised Brittany, 29, in September 2024 after she went viral for “liking” one of his social media uploads and blasting “hater[s]” on her Instagram Story.
“I want to thank beautiful Brittany Mahomes for so strongly defending me,” Trump wrote via Truth Social at the time.
That same month, he shared his hatred of Swift following her endorsement of Kamala Harris.
When her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, was asked by reporters last week how he felt about Trump watching the Super Bowl, the athlete referred to his presence as an “honor.”
Kelce gushed, “That’s awesome. No matter who the president is …. it’s the biggest game of my life and having the president there, you know, it’s the best country in the world. So, that’d be pretty cool.”
