Published:
Taylor Swift is going to perform at halftime of the College Football Playoff National Championship on Jan. 8 in Atlanta… or is she?
An Entertainment Tonight report says so. The website apparently reported that ESPN booked Swift.
ESPN, however, is denying that claim, according to USA TODAY Sports.
So many media outlets.
Swift released a portion of her second song off the upcoming “Reputation” album, titled “…Ready for It?” on Saturday during the Alabama-Florida State game in primetime on ABC.

“Reports of Taylor Swift performing at the College Football Playoff National Championship are inaccurate,” ESPN reportedly told USA TODAY Sports. “We are pleased that Taylor chose ESPN and ABC’s college football coverage as a platform to debut her new song “…Ready For It?” However, there is nothing more to announce at this time.”
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
