Taylor Swift won't play the Super Bowl Halftime Show because of her relationship with Travis Kelce

She told The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon: "Here's the thing. Jay Z has always been very good to me. Our teams are very close.

"They sometimes will call and say 'how does she feel about...' and that's not an official offer or a conference room conversation.

"We're always able to tell him the truth, which is that I am in love with a guy who does that sport on that actual field."

Jay- Z's Roc Nation company has produced the Super Bowl Halftime Show since 2020.

The Life of a Showgirl singer noted that watching Travis on the field in a game of "violent chess" means she wouldn't want to dilute the experience by worrying about her own gig.

She said: "That is violent chess. That is gladiators without swords. That is dangerous. The whole season I am locked in on what that man is doing on the field.

"Can you imagine if he's out there every single week putting his life on the line, doing this very dangerous, very high-pressure, high-intensity sport, and I'm like, 'I wonder what my choreo should be.

"'I think we should do two verses of Shake it Off into Blank Space into Cruel Summer, would be great.'"

The Fate of Ophelia hitmaker also made sure to clarify that the decision was her own, and Travis would support her if she wanted to play the Super Bowl.

She added: "This is nothing to do with Travis, he would love for me to do it. I'm just too locked in."

Earlier this year, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell insisted he would "welcome" Taylor performing at the Super Bowl.

He told the Today show: "We would always love to have Taylor play. She is a special, special talent. And obviously she would be welcome at any time."
