As the Chiefs make their way to the Super Bowl, Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco discussed Taylor Swift's influence in the NFL
The conversation starts with Shannon and Ocho speaking about how Taylor Swift brought all kinds of new viewers to the NFL. While Shannon argues that people may be tired of seeing Taylor Swift on their screens, he adds that the NFL understands the importance of reaching a different demographic. He concluded that the NFL's bottom line has always been about money, and Taylor Swift brings in a new set of eyes, including young girls who may not typically watch football.
The host then compares Taylor Swift's impact to other entertainers like Beyoncé, which led to Shannon suggesting that Beyoncé may not move the needle in the same way. However, Ochocinco disagreed, stating that Beyoncé has a significant influence and can attract people of all ages.
The discussion continued with both hosts debating whose tour movie generated more revenue. It was then revealed that Taylor Swift's concert movie earned $261.5 million at the box office, while Beyonce's earned $44.4 million. The hosts express surprise at the difference and debate the accuracy of the sources.
The conversation ends on a light-hearted note, with the hosts acknowledging that both Taylor Swift and Beyoncé are talented and beloved artists. They emphasize that their debate is not about personal preference but about who can attract a larger audience. You can listen in full above.
