Super Bowl 59 delivered a night of electrifying football and star-studded spectacle as the Philadelphia Eagles secured a dominant 40-22 victory over defending champions Kansas City Chiefs at the Superdome in New Orleans.
The event, one of the biggest in the sporting calendar, attracted a host of Hollywood A-listers, music icons, and even US President Donald Trump.
Trump became the first sitting US president to attend a Super Bowl, arriving with a large entourage, including his daughter Ivanka. He saluted as Jon Batiste performed the national anthem but left before the game concluded, later criticising the Super Bowl’s kickoff on his Truth Social platform.
The event also saw Inter Miami’s football stars Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, and Sergio Busquets enjoying the spectacle. Actor Bradley Cooper, a devoted Eagles fan, joined young supporter Declan LeBaron to hype up his team, while Jon Hamm introduced the Chiefs.
Notably absent was Beyoncé, though her daughters Blue Ivy and Rumi attended alongside their father, Jay-Z. Taylor Swift, supporting her boyfriend and Chiefs star Travis Kelce, was met with boos from Eagles fans when she appeared on the stadium’s jumbotron.
The halftime show opened with Samuel L. Jackson dressed as Uncle Sam, setting the stage for a spectacular performance. Kendrick Lamar, accompanied by R&B sensation SZA, delivered a powerful rendition of his hit song Luther. Tennis legend Serena Williams made a surprise appearance as a special guest, adding to the night’s entertainment.
Meanwhile, Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin, sporting the Los Angeles Rams’ colours, was spotted alongside his wife, actress Brenda Song, both cheering from the stands.
Super Bowl 59 was more than just a championship game—it was a cultural phenomenon filled with dramatic sports action, high-profile celebrities, and unforgettable moments. The Eagles’ emphatic win cemented their dominance, while the spectacle off the field ensured the event remained one of the most talked-about Super Bowls in history.
