Swifties without tickets have begun a tradition of celebrating out front of stadiums on the Eras Tour where they can often hear the music even if they cannot see the superstar. Police in Austria believe a 19-year-old suspect planned to drive a car into the fans. In Munich last week, more than 40,000 of...

ISIS plot against Taylor Swift concert narrowly foiled — but police warn there could still be a threat to her sold-out shows

Police say they have narrowly foiled an ISIS plot to attack a Taylor Swift concert in Austria — and there could still be a threat to the super star’s European shows.

Two suspects — a 19-year-old living in his parents’ house near Vienna, along with another man — were arrested Wednesday after police raided the home, according to the Austrian outlet Kronen Zeitung.

A bomb squad found various chemicals and substances potentially being used to make explosives, and evacuated the home.

Taylor Swift fans have a blank space on their ballots this year, and they're ready to write Kamala Harris' name.

The group got its start the same day President Joe Biden dropped out of the race, after Emerald Medrano, a 22-year-old fan from Texas, decided he and his fellow Swifties needed to jump into the action. "I feel like us U.S. Swifties should mass organize and...
