"I'm gonna praise our girl": Fox sports host Erin Andrews gushes over Taylor Swift’s stunning evolution in style and persona

As the Kansas City Chiefs prepare to face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl on February 9, veteran sports journalist Erin Andrews is set to deliver on-the-ground coverage from the sidelines. The Fox Sports host, who has been a staple in NFL broadcasting, is embracing the magnitude of the moment alongside her colleague and fellow broadcaster Charissa Thompson.

Erin Andrews Lauds Taylor Swift’s Remarkable Evolution

The duo recently dropped their latest episode of the Calm Down podcast just days before the big game. Thompson couldn’t contain her excitement about their upcoming assignment, stating, "This is the Super Bowl, this is like what we dreamed about when we were little kids." She went on to describe the thrill of witnessing Andrews step in front of millions of viewers, adding, "The moment I get to stand there with you, right before you do your hit before hundreds of millions of people, I just get so excited thinking about this opportunity that we get every few years."


One of the biggest questions Andrews often faces before a high-profile event like the Super Bowl is about her outfit choice. Known for her bold fashion sense, she turned heads during the NFC Championship Game, proving she is not afraid to stand out. Addressing the topic on her podcast, Andrews shared her evolving perspective, stating, "You know what I love about this is that I think for years I never really wanted to be like, 'Oh, it's just -- don't worry about it. I'm just blending in and I'm doing the game.' No, F that."

She further credited Taylor Swift for helping shift the narrative about women in sports, emphasizing, "And I'm gonna praise our girl. I'm going to praise Taylor for making it cool to be like, I'm a woman and I love sports. And it's good, like we can look great." Swift, who has been frequently spotted supporting her boyfriend, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, has undeniably influenced sports culture with her presence at games.

Taylor Swift's impact extends beyond just fandom and game-day appearances—her fashion choices have also made waves in the sports world. During last year's Super Bowl, the global icon was seen wearing a jacket from Andrews' WEAR by Erin Andrews apparel line, a moment that took the veteran broadcaster by surprise.


“And then to see Taylor Swift show up not once but three times in our gear, I was just so thankful that she recognized our small female-owned, female-run business,” Andrews revealed. The unexpected support left her emotional, especially when Swift sported WEAR again during the 2024 AFC Championship game. “I wasn’t even thinking of it for the 2024 Super Bowl, so when I saw what she was wearing, I just started crying on the plane, and the flight attendant was like, ‘You good?’ I was like, ‘No, I’ll have a double tequila and water. Thank you.’ It was amazing. It was one of our biggest moments.”

Beyond Swift’s game-day appearances, Andrews also admired the singer’s chic ensemble at a friend’s birthday celebration. Swift effortlessly stunned in a Fleur du Mal black dress, Simkhai wool-blend coat, and dazzling De Beers earrings. Reflecting on her flawless look, Andrews excitedly remarked, "How good Taylor look post-tour? The hair's a little darker, and she looks good. She looked great. The hair. The lips. We're going to dinner. We're (expletive) out on the cobblestone."
