Former NFL wide receiver Brandon Marshall has made claims on his podcast that pop icon Taylor Swift was instrumental in having rapper Kanye West removed from Super Bowl 58.

According to Marshall, West’s deliberate purchase of seats directly in front of Swift was a calculated attempt to ensure he appeared in every camera shot aimed at the pop star during the event.

Marshall detailed that Swift, allegedly agitated by West’s presence and the potential overshadowing, made a series of calls that led to West’s ejection from the stadium. “Taylor Swift gets pissed off. She boom boom makes a call or two. Everybody’s involved.”

“He gets kicked out of the stadium,” Marshall explained, suggesting that West was attempting to “leverage her celebrity” for his own visibility.
