Snoop Dogg shuts down any chance of watching Steelers game with Taylor Swift: ‘That ain’t happening’
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Snoop Dogg may have won over sports fans as NBC’s Olympics Ambassador in the summer of 2024, but when it comes to football, the rap icon has only one team in his heart — the Pittsburgh Steelers.
And no one, not even superstar Taylor Swift, can distract him from his beloved team.
Will Snoop Dogg watch the Steelers-Chiefs game with Taylor Swift?
During 'Sunday Night Football' on October 6, the 52-year-old Snoop Dogg made it clear that he is a die-hard Steelers fan and won't be watching any of their games with fans of opposing teams — including Taylor Swift, a well-known Kansas City Chiefs supporter.
The 'Drop It Like It's Hot' rapper's loyalty to the Steelers runs so deep that even the 'Cruel Summer' singer, who has been making waves in the NFL world thanks to her relationship with Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, wouldn’t be able to get an invite to watch a game with him.
Snoop Dogg clarifies there's no beef with Taylor Swift
When asked by Today if he’d consider watching the upcoming Christmas Day Steelers vs Chiefs game with Taylor Swift, Snoop Dogg didn’t mince words.
“That ain't happening,” he said bluntly. “When it comes to a Steelers game, it’s us or nobody. We don’t side with nobody else.”
Although there’s no 'Bad Blood' between the pop stars, the rapper made it clear that his allegiance to the Steelers remains unshakable.
Snoop Dogg reveals why he's a Pittsburgh Steelers fan
Despite this playful rejection, Snoop Dogg has expressed admiration for Taylor Swift in the past.
On the 'Full Send Podcast,' he praised her for her decision to re-record her albums and even admitted that some of her tracks are “classic bangers.” While it seems unlikely the pair will ever watch a Steelers-Chiefs game together, Snoop’s comments suggest their mutual respect for each other’s careers.
The rapper also shared that his love for the Steelers has been a lifelong passion. “Well, in the '70s, you got to understand there was only so many teams that was really dominating, and the Steelers was one of those teams that represented what I felt like,” he said, explaining why he’s stayed loyal to the team despite being a California native.
The 'Young, Wild & Free' star was seen leading the Steelers’ traditional Terrible Towel Twirl at Sunday’s game, proving that when it comes to his football fandom, Snoop is all in.

Taylor Swift skips boyfriend Travis Kelce's birthday celebration
Taylor Swift's conspicuous absence from Travis Kelce's recent birthday celebration sparked rumors of a split.
The Kansas City Chiefs' tight end, who celebrated his 35th birthday on Saturday, October 5, marked the occasion with friends and family at his yearly Kelce Car Jam charity event in Kansas City.
But an insider revealed all was fine between the couple.
"Taylor and Travis are still together and doing well. He’s been busy with the NFL season, and she has been enjoying some time off before her upcoming shows. Even though Taylor isn’t currently touring, she is still very busy with work and sorting out her upcoming plans."
Putting all speculations to rest, Taylor attended the Monday, October 7, game between Kansas City Chiefs and the New Orleans Saints, having missed the previous two Chiefs games.
