Taylor Swift fans urge her to speak out on Palestine
Taylor Swift fans are pressuring the singer to speak out about the war between Israel and Hamas… even going so far as to demonstrate during the “Eras” tour in Europe.
Following an airstrike on Sunday in Rafah – which reportedly killed 45 Palestinians – several celebrities spoke out on social media, calling for a ceasefire. Taylor, however, has remained remarkably silent… prompting the hashtag #SwiftiesforPalestine to gain traction on X.
Several Swifties even expressed their pro-Palestinian stance in person during their “Eras” tour… creating friendship bracelets for a free Palestine and holding signs – reading “We Demand Swift Action” and “Speak Out now” – encouraging TS to take a stand.
Some attendees even took to bringing the Palestinian flag to his show – with one image going viral of a fan allegedly hanging the flag on their section’s balcony.
To all Madridistas participating in the Eras Tour, please spread the word about Palestine, whether that means bringing a flag, a sign, or exchanging friendship bracelets. Be loud, be angry, make sure you are seen. #SwiftiesForPalestine pic.twitter.com/bJSx8tMzcf

Although Taylor has yet to address the situation in the Middle East, several of his aides have shared pro-Palestinian sentiments on social media.
Paramore, who is currently opening for Taylor on tour, called on fans to donate to Doctors Without Borders, highlighting the work the organization is doing in Gaza.
The group wrote on their Instagram Stories… “We do not believe that supporting our Palestinian friends and family is synonymous with anti-Semitism. We love our Jewish friends and family and pray for the safe return of remaining hostages. That being said, we simply cannot support genocide. We stand in solidarity with those calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire.
Jack AntonoffTaylor’s longtime record producer, also expressed his support for Palestine… by sharing the viral “All Eyes on Rafah” artwork — which was also posted by Joe Alwyn, Gigi Hadid, January Jones, Alison Brie, Tanning France, Kid Cudi, Priyanka Chopraamong many others.
Taylor infamously avoided taking political stances early in her career… causing a stir in 2020 when she supported Joe Biden for the president – a first for the singer at the time.
TayTay may need to say something sooner rather than later to appease her loyal fan base – because this issue isn’t going to go away and more famous people are being pushed to take a stand on it in one way or another. other. Time will tell if all this noise will show up on his radar.
