Taylor Swift’s expected appearance at Super Bowl LVIII raises concerns about ‘credible’ security threats

Pop queen Taylor Swift’s expected appearance at Super Bowl LVIII to cheer on the Chiefs and her boyfriend Travis Kelce raised concerns about “credible” security threats.

At a press conference on how the US Department of Homeland Security plans to handle the blockbuster event in Las Vegas, “Inside Edition” reporter Lisa Guerrero asked DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas about Swift.

“Every single year the Super Bowl has enormous security. But this year, fans are really excited about Taylor Swift,” Guerrero said during Wednesday’s Q&A session.

“There has also been some very negative pushback against her visibility at football games,” Guerrero added. “Have you seen any additional threats, any credible threats that are related to Taylor Swift?”

Mayorkas responded that “we have not” seen any threats involving Swift leading up to Sunday’s Super Bowl between the Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium.

However, the DHS secretary said law enforcement is “already at a heightened state of vigilance and fulfilling our responsibility” when “there’s an additional celebrity who will bring more attention.”
