From the moment the Kansas City Chiefs made the Super Bowl, it was apparent that Taylor Swift was facing quite the journey to make the game in Las Vegas from Tokyo.
While a 17-hour time difference and 12-hour flight would be absolute mayhem on most people in terms of jet lag, Swift showed up to Allegiant Stadium with all of the energy to both cheer on the Chiefs and celebrate the Super Bowl win well into the early morning hours.
When it came time for Travis Kelce to greet Swift postgame, even the Chiefs tight end was impressed that the 14-time Grammy winner wasn’t dealing with jet lag. To that, Swift had just about the coolest response.
“how do you not have jet lag rn?”
“jet lag is a choice” she’s so funny 💀 pic.twitter.com/8twPWP7KAJ— sarah (@tayvischarm) February 15, 2024
“Jet leg is a choice,” she said.
Of course, it’s almost certainly more comfortable to make that journey in a private jet than a middle seat in economy. But still, that’s a massive time difference to make with less than a day to adjust. No wonder Kelce was impressed.
Fans also loved Swift’s answer in the moment.
This was how Twitter reacted

Honestly "jet lag is a choice" is one of the coldest lines I've ever heard. https://t.co/9pMcdGuUd6
