Ice Spice admitted she did “not have a clue” what was going on when she attended the 2024 Super Bowl with Taylor Swift.
The “Princess Diana” rapper shared a laugh with Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show” Friday after he pointed out that she looked “confused” while watching Swift’s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and his team, the Kansas City Chiefs, take on the San Francisco 49ers in February.
“I was incredibly confused. I’m still confused,” she said.
Fallon then asked Ice Spice, whose real name is Isis Naija Gaston, whether she knew “anything about football” before going to the game.
“You know, that day, I had, like, a sense of knowing, but it just went away,” she confessed.
The “Barbie World” artist, 24, reiterated that she did “not have a clue” what was going on while joining Swift, 34, and her girl squad, which included Blake Lively, Lana Del Rey and Keleigh Teller.
“I honestly would just wait until Taylor cheered, and then I’m like, ‘Yay!’” she said while clapping.
Ice Spice made headlines at the time after fans took to social media to point out that she appeared puzzled during the championship game at Allegiant Stadium near Las Vegas.
One viral clip showed Swift pointing to the field and talking to Spice, who scrunched up her face before seeming to understand and saying, “Oh!”
The “Cruel Summer” singer and the “Think U the S–t” rapper became friends after working together on a remix of Swift’s song “Karma” last year.
Swift later brought out Ice Spice to perform their collaboration on her Eras Tour.
Some internet trolls speculated that the 14-time Grammy winner had only befriended the rising star for clout, which Ice Spice recently denied.
“Why would she not want to be my friend? Taylor f–ks with me. She’s so funny. I think our personalities mesh really well,” she told Rolling Stone in an interview published last week.
Swift also chimed in and gushed that she enjoyed how Ice Spice had taken a “keen interest in not just the music, but the music industry and how it works.”
“Seeing Ice lean into the strategic, financial and business aspects of her career is really exciting for me. I knew based on the questions she asked and the observations she made that she didn’t just want to be a passenger in her own career; she wanted to be the driver of it,” she raved.
