A Kansas City Chiefs vs Detroit Lions Super Bowl would mean one thing, lots of Taylor Swift and Eminem coverage.

00:00 The best possible matchup for the Super Bowl
00:02 from a hype standpoint is Chiefs and Lions.
00:06 You got the Chiefs that have done it,
00:07 who people will want to root against,
00:09 and the upstart Lions, plus the celebrity connections,
00:12 Taylor Swift, who's been ubiquitous all NFL season,
00:15 and Eminem, who's been on the scene
00:17 since the playoffs started,
00:19 and that way the camera operators
00:20 can lose themselves in the moment
00:22 and fill every blank space with a shot
00:24 of either Taylor or Slim Shady.
00:27 See, from a game standpoint, I agree.
00:31 I think that's the much more exciting game.
00:33 From the Taylor Swift-Em standpoint, no.
00:37 Taylor, to her credit, has been one of the faces
00:40 of the NFL all season because of her connection
00:42 to Travis Kelce, where Em, I feel like I haven't heard
00:45 anything about his connection to the Lions
00:48 until the playoffs started, even though he's from Detroit.
00:52 But now, I guess it's cool to talk about,
00:54 oh, he's a Detroit artist, he performed at the Super Bowl,
00:57 a couple years ago, but it's just like,
00:59 the connection between the two, to me,
01:02 is entirely different.
01:03 Taylor Swift's been shooting in the gym
01:04 with the Chiefs all season.
01:05 I feel like I ain't hear Em with the Lions
01:07 until the playoffs start.
01:08 - Well, the Lions being in the playoffs,
01:10 to be fair, is kind of a new thing.
01:12 It's not a regular routine.
01:15 They just won their first playoff game
01:16 in like 30 years or whatever it was,
01:18 30 plus years, in fact.
01:21 And Em is not the most socially attention-seeking guy,
01:25 as famous as he is, where Taylor is a little bit more,
01:29 like, I know it's not her fault
01:30 that they're panning to her all the time,
01:31 but she's a little bit more camera-friendly
01:34 in that more conventional way,
01:36 where she's not like, get away from me.
01:39 Em's always kind of been that way.
01:41 - Thanks.
