Simone Biles says she'll be at Chiefs-Packers game at Lambeau, but will Taylor Swift, too?
Hey Taylor, Simone is in for the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Green Bay Packers game. Are you?
Simone Biles, the most-decorated gymnast in history and wife of Packers safety Jonathan Owens, told the “Today” show on Thursday morning that now that her season has ended, she’s excited to spend the holidays in Green Bay supporting her husband.
“Today” co-anchor Hoda Kotb was quick to jump in and ask about a certain Dec. 3 game at Lambeau Field already circled on some calendars with red lipstick.
“What about when the Packers play the Chiefs?” Kotb said. “I would like to see you and Taylor. I think that would be really cute, a great photo opp. I think we might see that.”
“I actually will be going to that game,” said a smiling Biles, who was wearing a gold "Owens" necklace.
As you might have heard (maybe more than you want), pop superstar Taylor Swift is reportedly dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. To the delight of Swifties and TV cameras, she has been showing up at games to cheer him on. So imagine the excitement/hysteria if Swift and Biles somehow ended up at Lambeau Field in a suite together for “Sunday Night Football” on NBC?
“Let’s just try to have a moment, if we can, Simone,” Kotb said.
Swift returns to The Eras Tour on Nov. 9 with dates in Argentina and Brazil. Her final show of the year is Nov. 26 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, which means she could be free for "SNF."
Biles caught a couple of Packers preseason games and the season opener against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field, but she and Owens, who married in April, have been apart during her six-week stretch of competition and training. The seven-time Olympic medalist recently won five medals, including four gold, at the 2023 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Belgium to become the most-decorated gymnast, male or female, of all time.
When the Packers signed Owens in May, Biles took to social media to ask for all the best things to see, do and eat in the Green Bay area. Locals responded with hundreds of insider tips and suggestions.
