Olivia Culpo has sent a pᴀssionate plea for Donald Trump to join her on the Super Bowl red carpet when he attends Sunday’s game in New Orleans.
Culpo, the wife of San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey, is set to join Fox’s star-studded coverage team this weekend as host of a new red-carpet event taking place before the NFL showpiece.
The American model will be interviewing former players, celebrities and influential figures live on Fox-owned streaming service Tubi as they make their way into Caesars Superdome to watch the Kansas City Chiefs face the Philadelphia Eagles.
And during an appearance on Outkick’s H๏τ Mic podcast this week, Culpo discussed the possibility of Trump, who will be attending Sunday’s game, appearing as a guest on the red carpet beforehand.
‘Wouldn’t that be cool?’ she told hosts Clay Travis, Jonathan Hutton and Chad Withrow. ‘If you’re watching this, please Donald Trump come see me at the Tubi red carpet at the Super Bowl.’
Culpo, who was crowned Miss Universe in 2012, then delivered a personal invitation to Trump down the camera while referring to herself as his ‘former employee’.

She added: ‘It would be so fun, just like old times!’
Trump will become the first-sitting president in history to attend the Super Bowl when he watches the Chiefs take on the Eagles this weekend.
The 78-year-old is expected to watch the game alongside New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson, Front Office Sports reported earlier this week.
Benson, who became the principal owner of the NFL franchise in 2018 following her husband’s death, will host Trump as a special guest at the Superdome – the home of her Saints.
The businesswoman is known to be Republican leaning with previous donations to particular political campaigns. However, it is unknown how she voted in last November’s presidential election.
Trump’s attendance this weekend is expected to have an impact on security in New Orleans. While the Big Easy isn’t new to hosting big football events, the city was rocked by the New Year’s Eve terror attack on Bourbon Street.
‘Extensive planning and coordination have been in place to ensure the safety of all attendees, players, and staff,’ Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said in a statement, via Front Office Sports.
‘Security measures have been further enhanced this year, given that this will be the first time a sitting President of the United States will attend the event.’
