During the broadcast, commentators Mike Breen and Richard Jefferson referred to Swift as “Travis Kelce and his fiancée” or “Travis and his girlfriend,” notably omitting her name.
This deliberate omission of Swift’s name, despite her global recognition and significant commercial success, drew immediate criticism online.
“Commentators really out here playing it safe with ‘his fiancée’” wrote one viewer with another saying: “Commentator going out of his way to refer to her as Kelce’s girlfriend over and over rather than Swift”.
