Will Taylor Swift make the Super Bowl? Japan’s American embassy guarantees that she will

Performing on the other side of the world would have already been quite a trek for the pop sensation, but making the return inside of a tight window in time to see the object of her affection play in the NFL’s biggest game was always going to be tough. Luckily, the powers that be in the Far East have laid it all out for us and it looks like everything is going to be just fine. Now, it’s just about whether the Chiefs can win or not.

What’s Taylor Swift’s travel window?

You would have had to have been hiding under a rock to have missed how the love story between pop sensation Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce took over both the pop culture and sporting worlds these last few months. What started as a viral fascination with the soon-to-be A-list couple, soon became a monstrous marketing behemoth all of its own which saw the NFL tap a new audience - that’s you Swifites - record historic highs in TV ratings, and even see a significant increase in the number of female viewers. That’s all to say Taylor Swift’s union with the Chiefs’ star has been very good for business in the NFL.

With that in mind, you can probably guess that to have Swift attend the league’s biggest game with millions around the world watching would be a very big deal. The only problem is, that Swift being one of the world’s major pop stars, has commitments of her own, namely her ‘Eras Tour’ which is currently in Japan and set for the final performance of its eastern leg in Tokyo on Saturday, February 10th. As you likely know, the Super Bowl is scheduled to kick off on Sunday, February 11th, at 6:30 p.m. ET. With Swift’s show beginning at 6:00 p.m. JST the day before, that does not leave a lot of time to get state-side. If there is an upside, it’s that Japan is 14 hours ahead of the East Coast meaning Swift will effectively be doing a bit of time travel. That of course brings us to Japan’s take on the matter. That’s right, the country’s American embassy has now weighed on Swift’s itinerary, and by the looks of things, there’s no doubt that the journey is more than doable.

What did the Japanese embassy say?

As we all know, the Japanese are as efficient as they come and polite to boot, which is precisely why the embassy’s message is both unsurprising and totally apt at the same time. Rather than letting us paraphrase, just take a look at the official post from the country’s embassy below, and once you’re done, calm yourself with the knowledge that Taylor Swift will in fact be there when kickoff occurs at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Super Bowl Sunday.
