London is the only city on the tour where Taylor Swift is stopping twice.
Taylor Swift performs on stage during "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour" at Wembley Stadium on June 22, 2024 in London, England., "The Tortured Poets Department," to get the sense that Swift had soured on the country's capital city after long making it a regular hangout and then her second home. The record's fifth track is titledto London's Wembley Stadium this weekend, some Swifties therefore are wondering if they are witnessing the beginning of an extended goodbye.
In addition to this weekend's shows, Swift will return to Wembley for five more in August to close theis the only city on the tour where Swift is stopping twice. Some worry the arrangement may represent a swan song of sorts, while others think it just reflects a new era in Swift's bond with the Big Smoke.
Alwyn is assumed to have inspired "London Boy," a song from her 2019 album "Lover." A special-edition "Lover" CD included what appeared to be a January 2017 diary entry in which Swift talked about being "essentially based in London" but trying to lay low. British tabloids later reported that Swift spent much of the Covid-19 pandemic sheltering with Alwyn in north London.
Either way, the capital is putting on quite a show of its own to make sure Swift and her fans feel appreciated. Guides are offering walking, bus and taxi tours that retrace her footsteps, including a kebab shop whose owner says his establishment is supplying sandwiches for the singer and her crew on Friday.
"I feel like as a Northerner I have an affinity with her," Unsworth said, noting that Swift wrote many of the songs on her "Evermore" album while in England's Lake District with Alwyn.Unsworth isn't worried Swift will turn her back on the U.K. Swift said from the stage that her British fans "have been some of the most supportive people in my corner since I started making music.
