Taylor Swift Fans Decode Super Bowl LX Clues From Podcast Appearance With No NFL Confirmation

No halftime lineup is announced despite fan decoding of sourdough references, the number 47, a Levi’s tease.

Overview

  • On the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast, Swift said sourdough has “taken over my life” and she’s thinking about bread “60% of the time,” a line fans tie to Super Bowl LX in Santa Clara and the 49ers’ mascot Sourdough Sam.
  • She thanked Jason Kelce for “47 seconds” of cheering and joked “47,000,” which Swifties link to her 47th Eras Tour stop at Levi’s Stadium, host of the 2026 game.
  • Viewers noted a Lombardi-style trophy placed on its side in the podcast set, an arrangement some interpret as a halftime wink, though there is no official comment.
  • Levi’s posted a TikTok swapping its red tag for a sparkly orange rectangle tied to Swift’s Showgirl era, and the 49ers shared a playful stadium clip, moves fans read as reinforcing the theory.
  • Swift announced The Life of a Showgirl for Oct. 3, 2025 and now owns her masters, a shift observers say removes a past hurdle to a halftime slot, but the NFL has yet to name a headliner and recent announcements have landed in September.
