Taylor Swift calls cancellation of Vienna shows ‘devastating’ and explains her silence

LONDON (AP) — Two weeks after organizers scrubbed Taylor Swift’s concerts in Vienna amid a foiled terror plot, the singer issued her first statement on the cancellation. She calls it devastating and says she was filled with a “new sense of fear” and a “tremendous amount of guilt because so many people had planned on coming to those shows.” She thanked authorities and says she waited to speak until the European leg of her Eras Tour concluded to prioritize safety. In the wake of the cancellations, Swift’s representatives did not respond to multiple requests for comment from The Associated Press and other news organizations and her social media pages had gone dormant.
