Super Bowl 2025: Taylor Swift gets booed, Kendrick Lamar disses Drake — and what was up with that scoreboard? Here are the most viral moments of the night

February 10, 2025 0

 Super Bowl LIX wasn’t just a decisive win for the Philadelphia Eagles — who steamrolled the Kansas City Chiefs with a 40-22 victory — it was also a night packed with fashion statements, unforgettable ads and next-level celebrity drama.


From Taylor Swift getting booed in the stands to Kendrick Lamar using the halftime spotlight to take shots at Drake, the internet had plenty to talk about. And let’s not forget the NFL’s questionable new scoreboard, which fans absolutely roasted.

Here are the moments that made this year’s Super Bowl more entertaining off the field than on.

Taylor Swift gets booed

Swift’s presence at the Super Bowl has been the storyline of the season, but not everyone was thrilled to see her. When she appeared on the giant video screen at Caesars Superdome, a mix of cheers and loud boos rang out. Still, the singer seemed to handle it like a pro — with a bit of side eye and a light smile.

 

Brady and Snoop — two legends in their own right — delivered a PSA called “No Reason to Hate,” which turned out to be a bit ironic. Once it debuted, social media became flooded with people expressing how much they, well, hated the ad.

The spot was for billionaire Robert Kraft’s Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, and featured the du

o trading barbs in tight close-ups: “I hate you because we’re from different neighborhoods.” “I hate you because you look different.” “I hate you because I don’t understand you.”

It ended with Snoop saying, “Man, I hate that things are so bad that we have to do a commercial about it.” It seemed that a large number of viewers agreed.

Martha Stewart’s Sketchers ad

She may not have been on the field, but Stewart stole the show with her hilarious Skechers commercial. The 83-year-old had social media buzzing, with fans on X crowning her the real MVP of the night.

In the ad, an AI-generated version of Stewart pulls off insanely impressive breakdancing moves — flipping, twisting and defying gravity with Olympic-level skill. While it was clearly AI-generated, fans didn’t seem to mind.

Eagles top Chiefs to win Super Bowl, led by Jalen Hurts and a brilliant defensive performance

February 10, 2025 0

 The Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl champions again after a dominant performance in a 40-22 win over the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs. The win is the first for the quarterback-coaching duo of Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni after they fell in Super Bowl LVII against the Chiefs. With the loss, Kansas City falls short in its quest for the first three-peat in the Super Bowl era.


A brilliant night from the Eagles' defense and an efficient, poised night from Hurts headlined Philadelphia's second Super Bowl title in franchise history. The Eagles held the Chiefs to 225 total yards and forced three turnovers, including a second-quarter Cooper DeJean interception that he returned for a touchdown.

Hurts, who was named Super Bowl MVP, finished the night 17-of-22 for 221 yards through the air and two passing touchdowns. He also rushed for 72 yards — a new Super Bowl record for a quarterback — and a Tush Push rushing touchdown. Saquon Barkley had 97 total yards, with 57 on the ground on 31 touches.

Patrick Mahomes threw for 257 yards and three scores — much of that once the Eagles had the game well in hand — along with two interceptions and a lost fumble. He's now 3-2 in five career Super Bowl starts.

Super Bowl required reading: Eagles squash Chiefs' 3-peat hopes


Tom Brady and the New England Patriots couldn’t finish the job. The Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers of the 1970s were incredible teams but fell short too. The 1980s San Francisco 49ers and 1990s Dallas Cowboys were NFL royalty but their streaks stopped at two Super Bowls in a row.

There have been 59 Super Bowls played and still no team has won three of them in a row. The Chiefs’ quest for a three-peat starts over at zero after they were thoroughly dominated by the Philadelphia Eagles 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX. It was one of the most one-sided games in Super Bowl history, which was shocking given the stature of the Chiefs coming in.
