Taylor Swift, the global superstar and singer-songwriter known for her catchy pop tunes and heartfelt ballads, made a brilliant comeback to the stage at Wembley Stadium in London on Thursday, August 15.
This concert marked swift’s first live show after her Vienna gigs were cancelled due to an alleged terror threat.
Fans were left devastated when the three scheduled shows, set for August 8, 9, and 10 at the Ernst Happel Stadium, were cancelled.
The news broke when Barracuda Music, the concert organisers in Austria, announced on Instagram that the shows were cancelled for safety reasons after government officials confirmed a planned terrorist attack at the venue.
“Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour | Vienna shows cancelled due to government officials’ confirmation of planned terrorist attack.
“With confirmation from government officials of a planned terrorist attack at Ernst Happel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone’s safety.”
Luckily, Taylor Swift’s Wembley show went ahead without a hitch.
She surprised the crowd by bringing out her friend Ed Sheeran, the British singer-songwriter and musician famous for his soulful voice and hits like “Shape of You” and “Thinking Out Loud”.
Together, they performed an unforgettable acoustic set, singing hits like “Everything Has Changed”, and “Endgame”.
They also treated the audience with Ed Sheeran’s own romantic ballad “Thinking Out Loud”. The crowd loved it!
After the performance, Taylor Swift took a moment to thank Ed Sheeran, reflecting on their long friendship and previous tour.
“This is one of my best friends in the world to the point where I feel like he is a second brother of mine. We toured together on the Red tour. Every time I am doing the ‘Red’ part of the show, I think about the memories that we have made.”
She also mention that he is also on tour but he made sure to come to this one. “He is on tour right now and he is probably so tired, but he wanted to come and play for you and do this for all of us.”
