Among those in attendance were Naomi Osaka’s boyfriend, the rapper Cordae, alongside music industry giants Jay-Z and Wale. The trio, who were there to support the Commanders, found themselves the subjects of playful taunting by none other than former Cowboys star Dez Bryant.

While Cordae seemed to shrug off the jests, Jay-Z and others engaged briefly in the banter, sharing a laugh with the former NFL player before redirecting their focus.
This humorous interaction was a highlight of the game, showcasing the camaraderie and light-hearted rivalries that can exist between celebrities from various spheres when their favorite teams go head to head.

The tennis star also highlighted the strength of their partnership, emphasizing the mutual respect and communication that have helped them during this new chapter.
We built a really good foundation… I don’t know if it’s because he’s just an easygoing guy, but I think we just respect each other’s opinions. And if we disagree on something, we talk it out. At the end of the day, we both want what’s best for Shai,
she added.
