Taylor Swift is shutting down a fan theory.
The singer, 35, put an end to rumors that she had a cameo as a bear in Happy Gilmore 2 while appearing on her boyfriend Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce’s New Heights podcast on Aug. 13.
Jason, 37, asked Swift if she could “confirm or deny” the speculation, to which she replied, “I can deny!”
“This is one of those ones where, like, we’ll send it to each other and be like, ‘Hey, did you hear I was the bear in there?’ And he’s like, ‘Yeah, did you hear we bought a house in Lake Como?’ At this point, we’re just like, of course they think I’m inside of a bear costume,” the popstar continued, referring to her conversations with Travis, 35.

Swift said the rumor is flattering because she is a fan of the movie, which features the Kansas City Chiefs tight end. “I’m honored to be thought of in that context because I loved that movie so much. I watched it multiple times. I loved it so much,” she explained.
“Whoever did the bear acting was exquisite,” the “Karma” singer added.

The aforementioned bear scene involves a daydream sequence in which Travis’ waiter character is tied to a metal post and covered in honey. The character is then approached by a bear, who attacks him.
Swift promoted the hotly anticipated Netflix sequel upon its July 25 release. The movie, which is a follow-up to 1996’s Happy Gilmore, sees the return of Adam Sandler as the titular golfer.

“Happy Gilmore 2 had me cackling and cheering the whole movie. An absolute must-watch,” the singer wrote in an Instagram Stories post, alongside an image of the film’s movie poster. “13/10, go watch it on @netflix as soon as humanly possible 🍯.”
To the delight of fans, Swift revealed the title of her upcoming 12th studio album, The Life of a Showgirl, in a clip shared on the podcast’s Instagram account the day before the episode dropped.
“Can I show you something?” she said in the video.
Jason replied, “Okay. What do we got? We got a briefcase? Mint green with T.S. on it.” The singer then confirmed the retired Philadelphia Eagles star’s observations with a simple, “Yup.”
