New Orleans leans into its history with Voodoo and perhaps that explains the Chiefs’ troubles in Super Bowl LIX.
The Chiefs won in a number of unusual ways during the regular season, and fans of superstar singer Taylor Swift called it Tayvoodoo.
Perhaps the two Voodoos canceled out each other.
Ah, the more likely explanation for the Chiefs’ 40-22 loss to Philadelphia in Super Bowl LIX was the superior play of the Eagles.
Swift was on hand Sunday at the Caesars Superdome to support her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. After the loss, Kelce went to see Swift in her suite.
Here are seven photos of the celebrity couple from Super Bowl LIX from The Star’s Tammy Ljungblad and Dominick Williams, along with Imagn Images’ Geoff Burke and Stephen Lew.
