A report related to Taylor Swift’s ongoing Eras Tour has been circulating on social media platforms, following a post shared by the official Facebook page of SpaceX Fanclub on September 13, 2024. The post alleged that the tour struggled with ticket sales due to criticism emerging of Swift endorsing Kamala Harris. The post reads:
“Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour Struggles with Only 2,000 Ticket Sales After Endorsement Backlash – This is Satire Post.”
The claim has been debunked, as it was a satirical post. The Facebook page has mentioned in the bio that nothing on their page is real. The timeline is flooded with various other reports, including that Tim Allen and Roseanne Barr have canceled a non-wake show with ABC.
Despite the satirical nature of the post, the comments section was filled with different responses. Many expressed frustration towards Taylor Swift, with some stating that they were expecting the news to be true, and others said that she would suffer the consequences of her actions.
Taylor Swift shares a social media post in support of Kamala Harris
Notably, Taylor Swift endorsed Kamala Harris for the upcoming 2024 US presidential election through an Instagram post with a photo where she held a cat in her hand. The singer addressed the presidential debate that happened on September 10, 2024, saying that voters need to understand the problems they are dealing with. She further stated:
“Recently I was made aware that AI of ‘me’ falsely endorsing Donald Trump’s presidential run was posted to his site. It really conjured up my fears around AI, and the dangers of spreading misinformation.”
The singer continued:
“It brought me to the conclusion that I need to be very transparent about my actual plans for this election as a voter. The simplest way to combat misinformation is with the truth.”
