6 Taylor Swift Super Bowl halftime show Easter eggs from 'New Heights'
WHOA. Taylor Swift -- in true Taylor Swift fashion -- may have dropped some hints on her amazing New Heights podcast appearance about a certain Super Bowl halftime show next year.
Now, we can't confirm this is really the case yet. Usually, the Super Bowl halftime show performer is announced in September, so we'll have to wait until then to hear if this is official.
But knowing Swift, she doesn't just drop certain numbers and factoids without there being a whole mess of fans who connect the dots and declare that there's some secret she's trying to share. And that's what's happened here. We're here to clue you in as we wonder: Is Swift just teasing us or is she really, actually, maybe doing the Super Bowl 60 halftime show?
Let's run through the clues, which were summed up by various folks online including in TikTok videos.
1. The sourdough shoutouts were a clue about the San Francisco 49ers' stadium
Among all that sourdough bread talk and puns might have been a clue. The Niners' mascot is... SOURDOUGH SAM! And where is the Super Bowl being played in February 2026? YEP IN THE NINERS' STADIUM!
2. Taylor Swift used the number 47 in the episode
She thanked Jason Kelce for screaming in the intro for 47 seconds. There were other references. Her favorite number is 13 -- and before you scream "TAKE OFF YOUR TIN FOIL HAT BUDDY!" remember that she talked a lot about numerology in the episode -- and 47 + 13 = 60. Which Super Bowl is it next year? That would be... SUPER BOWL 60!!
3. Let's talk about 47 again
Her 47th stop on the Eras Tour was... Levi's Stadium, where Super Bowl 60 will be played!!!
4. Back to the number 60
She said she thinks about bread "60 percent of the time." HMMM.
5. The Niners posted this suspicious TikTok
Could be something. Could be nothing.
6. Levi's posted an intriguing TikTok
Could also be something.
