Exclusive : The head of the NFL has dismissed the “NOTION” of a conspiracy involving Taylor Swift as “ABSURD”….

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell dismissed conspiracy theories surrounding Taylor Swift and the Superbowl outcome as “nonsense” on Monday as the countdown begins to the main event in Las Vegas.

Goodell brushed aside the conspiracy theory that Swift’s relationship with Travis Kelce is scripted.

Right-wing critics have said their relationship is part of a conspiracy to rig the Superbowl result and help get US President Joe Biden re-elected.

“I couldn’t have scripted that one,” Goodell said, calling that talk “nonsense.”

The budding love story featuring music superstar Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Kelce has taken an unexpected turn into the world of political conspiracy theories this week after the team advanced to the Super Bowl.

Myriad baseless rumours emerged on social media – most notably, the idea that she and her two-time Super Bowl champion boyfriend are key assets in a secret plot to help President Joe Biden get reelected in 2024.

Political and media figures on the right, including former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, political activist Laura Loomer and One America News Network host Alison Steinberg, have amplified the allegations.

The claims may well reflect the fear on the right that someone as famous as Swift, whose landmark Eras Tour is the first tour to cross the billion-dollar mark, could indeed influence the presidential race should she urge her legion of fans in one direction.

Both Swift and Kelce have made public statements about politics and other issues that put them at odds with the far-right.

Swift broke her long-standing refusal to discuss her political views in 2018 when she announced in an Instagram post that she would be voting for Tennessee’s Democratic Senate candidate Phil Bredesen and Democratic House incumbent Rep. Jim Cooper. She also slammed then-U.S. Rep. Marsha Blackburn, the Republican candidate, citing Blackburn’s opposition to certain LGBTQ+ rights and her vote against the reauthorisation of the Violence Against Women Act in 2013. Blackburn won election to the Senate.

In 2020, Swift endorsed Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in an interview with V Magazine, noting that “under their leadership, I believe America has a chance to start the healing process it so desperately needs.”

Kelce faced criticism in September for appearing in an ad promoting the double dose of the flu and COVID-19 vaccines, as recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The ad was part of a partnership with Pfizer, the pharmaceutical company that developed a vaccine in response to the pandemic and has since become a common mark for anti-vaccine activists and conspiracy theorists.
