Taylor Swift’s ‘Biggest Fear’ of Concert Attacks Resurfaces Amid Vienna Cancellations


An interview has resurfaced in which Taylor revealed such a scenario would be her "biggest fear".

Swift’s reflections on this very fear were penned in a 2019 article for Elle, where she candidly discussed her anxiety about performing live in the wake of the 2017 ISIS bombing at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, and the mass shooting at Las Vegas’ Route 91 Harvest Music Festival. On Wednesday, Aug. 7, Austrian police confirmed the arrest of two suspects involved in planning a terrorist attack on Swift’s concerts at the Ernst Happel Stadium. “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,” reads a statement from Barracuda Music, also reposted by Taylor Nation on Instagram.
