Fans Think Taylor Swift Made A Secret Happy Gilmore 2 Cameo, And Honestly, The Theory Is Convincing

by

The classic comedy film “Happy Gilmore,” played by Adam Sandler, has resurfaced with its sequel releasing on Netflix last weekend as part of their 2025 lineup. This new installment boasts numerous references to the original and is filled with entertaining cameos. For instance, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce portrays a waiter in the movie, and there’s a scene where he comically gets licked by a bear while tied up to a pole. Fans of Taylor Swift have been speculating that she might secretly make an appearance alongside her partner. So let’s take a closer look at the clues.

There’s A Very Convincing Theory That Taylor Swift Could Have A Secret Cameo In Happy Gilmore 2

Ever since Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce became a couple, they’ve experienced many significant moments together. Given their growing closeness as a pair, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Swift were present during the filming of Happy Gilmore 2. This speculation arises due to rumors suggesting that their relationship is deepening. Netflix recently released a behind-the-scenes video focusing on the bear scene, which you can watch below:

Fans have been speculating that Taylor Swift might be the one in the bear costume who makes the hilarious Kelce scene in “Happy Gilmore 2” so amusing. This theory was hinted at under a post on Instagram, and a user commented about it. Intriguingly, the Netflix account responded to this with an interesting remark. Here’s what transpired:

  • @carolpcgo: “They should’ve dressed Taylor as a bear for an epic surprise”
  • @netflix: “👀”

Interesting, right? Those little eye emojis usually stand for suspicious side-eye, so I don’t blame Taylor Swift fans for reading into the reply. Additionally, Swift (who’s not on social media much these days) wrote the following on her Instagram story last week:

Watching Happy Gilmore 2 left me laughing and rooting for every scene! It’s an absolute must, scoring a whopping 13/10. Make sure to stream it on Netflix at your earliest convenience, honey! 🍎

The aspect of her message causing controversy among fans is her use of a honey pot emoji at the end. Taylor Swift often includes subtle hints for fans to decipher, leading some to speculate that she might have secretly appeared in a bear suit for an under-the-radar cameo. However, despite its appeal and intrigue, there’s a possibility we should not read too much into this theory due to one significant factor.

I Think One Detail Debunks The Theory

It’s quite intriguing and fits perfectly with Taylor Swift’s image if she were to make an appearance in Happy Gilmore 2 alongside Travis Kelce. Yet, there are indications that suggest otherwise. Here’s a piece of proof from the credits, equipped with my helpful marker:

In “Happy Gilmore 2”, Brandon Alan Smith was acknowledged as the “Bear Performer”. It’s worth noting that Taylor Swift has sometimes chosen to use different names in projects so as not to attract too much attention. Nevertheless, Brandon Alan Smith has an IMDb profile dedicated to his acting and stunt work, which lends credibility to his recent film credit. Regardless of the circumstances, we can’t forget this 2020 video showing Taylor Swift in a bear costume!

Although it would have been wonderful if Taylor Swift was actually wearing that costume, I believe we’ve ruled out that possibility (as a fan of hers). A small part of me is still hopeful that she did secretly appear on screen with her partner. Nevertheless, you should definitely watch Adam Sandler’s new comedy, which has been given 4 stars by TopMob in our Happy Gilmore 2 review. You can stream it using a Netflix subscription.
