Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is a big fan of Taylor Swift, and he’s unsurprisingly fond of the pop star’s relationship with Travis Kelce.
In a recent interview with CNN ahead of the Super Bowl, Johnson weighed in on Swift and Kelce’s relationship.
He said, “I love it. I don’t have a problem with it, I feel like it’s all part of the game and it’s all the game that we play. Guy starts dating a girl who happens to be the biggest star in the world and he’s a badass SOB on the field. He’s a bad dude in the game and it’s part of a story, but at the end of the day – and I shared this with a few people I’ve talked to privately – is just all that goes away.”
He continued, “You [Wire] played the game, so you know at this level, all that stuff goes away. You have to strip it all away and you have one intention and one focus and that’s just to ball out and play the game. That’s the beauty of it. Like you got all the bells and the whistles and the cache and the pomp and circumstance and all this awesome hype that happens surrounding this Super Bowl. This is a big one this year. It’s a big one, man, with a lot on the line and legacy on the line.”
Swift’s presence at Sunday’s Super Bowl has received peak media interest, with the pop icon traveling from an Eras Tour stop in Japan to Las Vegas to watch her partner play for the Kansas City Chiefs against the San Francisco 49ers.
The Chiefs beat the 49ers to win the Super Bowl LVIII.
