Taylor Swift dismisses ‘bear' cameo rumors in 'Happy Gilmore 2': 'This is one of those ones...'
Taylor Swift
. There has been a constant rumor among Swifty fans that the pop sensation secretly portrayed a bear in Happy Gilmore 2.
During her August 13 appearance on New Heights, the podcast hosted by her boyfriend
Travis Kelce
and his brother Jason Kelce, the 35-year-old superstar herself discussed and clarified the rumors.
The Happy Gilmore 2 rumors were proven false by Taylor Swift
Jason Kelce questioned her about the circulating rumor, asking her to "confirm or deny" the rumor. Swift said, "I can deny!" in response to this right away. The theory has now become a running joke between her and Travis, she disclosed.
"This is one of those ones where, like, we'll send it to each other and be like, 'Hey, did you hear I was the bear in there?'" Swift said, revealing their private jokes. "Yeah, did you hear we bought a house in Lake Como?" he asks.
"At this point, we're just like, of course they think I'm inside of a bear costume."
The Daylight hitmaker also agreed that because she loved the
Adam Sandler
film, she found the rumor flattering even though it was totally false.
She mentioned that she had seen the film several times because she loved it so much. She laughed and added that she had thought the bear acting was beautiful.
The Famous Bear Scene and Travis Kelce's Cameo
Adam Sandler, Julie Bowen, Ben Stiller, and Christopher McDonald returned in the July 25 release of the follow-up to the 1996 cult classic Happy Gilmore. Happy Gilmore 2, which was directed by Kyle Newacheck, features numerous cameos by famous people, such as Travis Kelce, Bad Bunny, and Margaret Qualley.
Travis plays a waiter in the movie.
Travis's personality is tied to a metal post during a dream sequence, which includes the now-famous bear scene. Happy gets coated in honey by Oscar, his caddy, who is portrayed by Bad Bunny, before a bear is let loose to eat him. Fans started thinking that Taylor Swift might have been the person wearing the bear costume because of this exact scene.
Swift's View of the Movie
Swift continued to praise the movie even after denying the rumors.
Shortly after its release, she shared the official Happy Gilmore 2 poster on Instagram, writing, 'Happy Gilmore 2 had me cackling and cheering the whole movie. An absolute must-watch. 13/10, go watch it on Netflix as soon as humanly possible."
