Taylor Swift’s Bodyguard Follows Her Into the Bathroom—Fans React to the Shocking Reality of Fame

A video of Taylor Swift’s bodyguard following her into the bathroom has sparked a heated debate about the downsides of fame.

As one of the most recognizable faces on the planet, it’s no surprise that Taylor, 35, is constantly surrounded by security when she steps out in public. However, when fans learned that her bodyguard even follows her into the restroom, many were left unsettled.

Viral Video Sparks Debate

During the Super Bowl at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, on Sunday, clips of Taylor exiting the bathroom—closely followed by her longtime security guard, Drew—went viral on X (formerly Twitter).

Social media quickly exploded with reactions, with many calling the situation “sad” and “crazy” that she can’t even use the bathroom without worrying about her safety.

“How sad is that? We all love Drew, but the fact that he has to stand outside her stall…” one user wrote.

“It makes me so sad that she can’t even go to the bathroom alone,” another added.

A third user chimed in: “I literally cannot imagine having bodyguards 24/7. It would exhaust me.”

The Reality of Taylor’s Security Measures

Taylor’s intense security has long been a topic of discussion among fans. Her bodyguard Drew has accompanied her at nearly every public outing in recent years, earning admiration from Swifties for his dedication.

“Drew is literally her shadow. I have so much respect for him, and nobody dare cross him,” one person wrote.

Some fans defended the need for such extreme measures, pointing out the risks of fame—especially in public restrooms.

“Someone could easily look over a stall, take a compromising pic of her, and sell it for a lot of money. So yeah, he definitely needs to be there,” one user argued.

Others sympathized with Taylor’s situation:

“No one should feel so unsafe that they need a bodyguard in the bathroom. I’m sorry, but that’s just heartbreaking.”

Drew has become a familiar figure in Taylor’s life, frequently seen at her side—whether at award shows, concerts, or even private moments. Fans often praise his vigilance and protective nature.

“He may look nice, but his sole purpose is to make sure nobody hurts her, which is terrifying,” one fan noted.

Another added: “He’s never more than 10 feet from her at all times when she performs. His eyes scan crowds like an eagle—nothing gets past this man.”

While fame brings fortune and admiration, Taylor’s latest viral moment is a stark reminder of the lack of privacy that comes with it.
