Taylor Swift's 'Soccer Mom' Impression Resurfaces Amid Travis Kelce Romance
Taylor Swift
A video of Taylor Swift impersonating a "Minnesota soccer mom" made its rounds online again this past weekend, and it's pretty safe to say it aged like fine wine.
The clip, which originated from an interview the Grammy winner did with BBC’s The Switch about a decade ago, begins with the then-20-something being prompted to share an impression on the radio show. She chose to impersonate a Minnesota soccer mom and before she got into the storyline, she explained that the accent is based on what the Midwestern "soccer mom" stereotype "sounds like" in her "head."
Swift then went on to voice a character in a comical skit, where she pretended to be a mother recalling an event from earlier in the day that involved nearly hitting a deer while picking up her son from soccer practice.
Using her best Midwestern accent, she said, "I was driving down the road the other day and I was in my van and this mini, oh, this deer, this dang deer, just jumped out in front of my van and I didn’t even know what was going on, 'cuz I don't know, if I swerve, then I might go off the road and hit a snow drift."
"And I was just trying to pick up Jimmy from soccer," she continued in character. "And I didn’t ask for that deer to go out in the middle of the road. If I hit the deer, then I got that on my mind all day, and I gotta clean off my car and there's possible dents, but, then you know, you got to think about if you swerve, they tell you not to do that in traffic class."
"Um, and I was late to pick Jimmy up and he's like, 'Mom, you're late,' and he's just, you know, nagging at me the whole rest of the day and it's all because of this dang deer," Swift concluded as the studio erupted in laughter.
The video, though a decade old, regained popularity online ahead of the 33-year-old pop star's suspected beau’s team, the Kansas City Chiefs', face-off against the Minnesota Vikings at US Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Sunday, Oct. 8.

"Wisconsin born and raised….can confirm this is spot on!" one fan commented just two days ago, before someone else similarly shared, "Love it! (gal from WISCANSIN)."
"Indistinguishable from anyone in the north half of Minnesota," a third joked.
Despite Swift showing up to support her rumored boyfriend, Travis Kelce, at two games last month, she was notably absent from the stadium on Sunday and Kelce's birthday celebrations earlier in the week. Though, she could have just been busy gearing up for the start of the second leg of her Eras tour, which is set to kick off next month.
