Swiftly schooling Cruise

Hollywood superstar  says pop star educated him about football 

Hollywood star Tom Cruise shared that pop icon Taylor Swift “schooled” him on football when they attended a Kansas City Chiefs game together, saying the singer now knows the sport well despite knowing "nothing about football" when she first met Travis Kelce.  During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the Hollywood star, who came to promote his upcoming film Digger, spoke about the viral image of him and Swift talking about football. 

Fallon asked: “Now when the biggest movie star in the world is sitting next to the biggest artist in the world, what, what do you talk about?” Cruise said: “She was schooling me on football. For real. Like, she was bringing the football; first of all, she’s a genius. I’ve been following her since she was a kid.”

He added, “Everybody there, all their friends, they’re a beautiful couple, you know, and magical in their own right. And everybody there in that booth, I haven’t been to a football game since pre-COVID, you know, where I was working and everything. So to get to hang out there and have that moment, it was a lot of fun. Oh, she knows her stuff. We talk about music and movies and she’s funny. She’s just, she’s got such a great sense of humor. She is a  brilliant writer also, by the way.”
