Blake Lively Chooses Not to Attend the 2025 Super Bowl After Her Show-Stopping 2024 Appearance with Taylor Swift.
Blake Lively skipped the 2025 Super Bowl after making a memorable appearance with her friend Taylor Swift at the previous year’s game.
The 37-year-old actress, currently embroiled in a legal dispute with It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni, chose not to attend the event on Sunday, Feb. 9.
Swift, 35, attended the game to cheer on her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his Kansas City Chiefs, alongside Ice Spice, who had joined Swift and Lively the year before.
While the Chiefs triumphed in 2024, they were defeated by the Philadelphia Eagles 22-40 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans this time around.
After attending the Super Bowl in February 2024, Lively shared the experience on Instagram, humorously recalling, «Last week I left my kids for the first time ever and wore pants that were shoes.
I took pictures upside down and had no clue.
I treated a friendship bracelet like a Flat Stanley for my husband like I didn’t realize it wasn’t ‘07.
I borrowed more jewelry than the skeleton in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. And I went clubbing.»
The mother of four also joked, «Now I know what my episode of the Twilight Zone would look like.»
In January, Swift’s name surfaced in Justin Baldoni’s legal complaint, when Lively allegedly referred to the singer as one of her «dragons» in a text exchange with Baldoni, referencing Game of Thrones.
Swift, whose song is featured in It Ends With Us, has yet to comment on the ongoing legal matter.
Meanwhile, Lively’s upcoming film, Another Simple Favor, co-starring Anna Kendrick, is set to open the 2025 South by Southwest film festival on March 7.
