Taylor Swift has finally addressed the foiled terrorist attack that forced her to cancel her Eras Tour shows in Vienna.
The music superstar broke her silence over the shocking incident in a post on Instagram after her sell-out gigs at London’s Wembley Stadium.
The star and her team went into lockdown after the terror plot was revealed and had presidential-level security when they flew to the UK for the last leg of Swift’s European tour.
The teenage terror suspects were allegedly planning to drive a bomb-filled car into the crowd outside the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna.
Swift posted: “Having our Vienna shows cancelled was devastating. The reason for the cancellations filled me with a new sense of fear, and a tremendous amount of guilt because so many people had planned on coming to those shows.
“But I was also so grateful to the authorities because thanks to them, we were grieving concerts and not lives.”
The star explained why she decided to stay silent in the aftermath of the terrifying incident.
“Let me be very clear: I am not going to speak about something publicly if I think doing so might provoke those who would want to harm the fans who come to my shows,” Swift said.
“In cases like this one, ‘silence’ is actually showing restraint, and waiting to express yourself at a time when it’s right to. My priority was finishing our European tour safely, and it is with great relief that I can say we did that.”
The star said she and her team had “worked hand in hand” with British authorities and stadium staff to ensure the safety of everyone involved.
It comes as Travis Kelce prepares to make his film debut in an upcoming Hollywood blockbuster.
Adam Sandler confirmed the Kansas City Chiefs star has been given in a ameo in Happy Gilmore 2.
“We have something nice for Travis. He’s going to come by,” the comedian teased on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
Sandler told the studio audience that the NFL star is “very nice,” adding, “What a big, handsome guy — and funny and cool as hell. He’s a stud.”
