During the Chargers’ recent game against the Titans, a surprising musical choice caught both fans and Madison Beer off guard. Right after quarterback Justin Herbert delivered a 19-yard touchdown pass to Quentin Johnston — giving Los Angeles a 17–14 lead — the stadium played Beer’s latest single, “Yes Baby.”
“I was like, ‘What the hell?’” Madison Beer said, reacting to the moment when the NFL broadcast used her song during Herbert’s highlight.
This unusual broadcast decision reminded many viewers of the ongoing NFL fascination with pop star Taylor Swift’s appearances at Kansas City Chiefs games, especially alongside Travis Kelce. The NFL’s focus on celebrity moments seems to be extending beyond Swift, spotlighting another pop culture connection between Beer and Herbert.
Beer’s single had only recently been released, making the timing even more intriguing as it played right after her boyfriend threw one of his cleanest passes of the match. Herbert completed 19 of 29 pass attempts for 250 yards, finishing with two passing touchdowns, one rushing score, and leading the Chargers to a 27–20 win. The victory raised their record to 6–3, putting them closer to postseason contention.
