Taylor Swift made headlines with her three-night Eras Tour stop in London. From Tom Cruise to Prince William, the Cruel Summer hitmaker’s record-breaking world tour attracted many A-listers. Amidst all this fame, the 34-year-old singer took some time out to reflect on her career. During Night 2 at the sold-out Wembley Stadium, Swift expressed her gratitude to fans. And also to haters, but sarcastically!
Taylor Swift thanks fans, criticises ‘bullshitters’
On Saturday, June 22, Swift addressed the 90,000-strong crowd, saying, “I was thinking about playing Wembley Stadium. It’s not normal at all [and] This is too crazy for you [have] Me and my team have done that because we have had the opportunity to play at Wembley Stadium eight times this summer.”
The Midnights singer hit out at her detractors while expressing her gratitude to her loyal fans. “You obviously thought this was a good idea [and] You wanted this to happen. This means a lot to me. I will spend my whole life thanking you for this,” she said.
Swift continued, “On the other hand, it really makes me think that every time somebody fucks up, it makes me work even harder, and it makes me even stronger.” “So, it makes me incredibly grateful to those people.”
Taylor Swift makes live debut of Thank You Amy
After finishing her elaborate speech, Swift surprised fans with her first live performance of Thank You Aimi. The track is believed to be a diss track directed at Kim Kardashian, with whom she has had a long-standing feud. Shortly after the release of Swift’s latest album, TTPD, fans noticed how she stylized the song’s title, spelling out “KIM” in capital letters.
“While you were throwing punches, I was making some,” Swift sings in the passionate track. “And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed, ‘Fuck you, Amy,’ into the night sky while I was bleeding / But I can’t forget how you healed me.”
