Swift told the police that she was thankful for how quickly they acted, which kept her fans safe.
Swift said this about the cancellations on herInstagrampage: “The reason for the cancellations filled me with a new sense of fear and a tremendous amount of guilt because so many people had planned to come to those shows.”
She was also thankful to the police, saying, “But I was also so thankful to the police because thanks to them, we were grieving concerts and not lives.”
Their show was important because they showed support forTaylor Swiftand her fans, and there were also strong safety steps in place.

Brenda wasthrilledto get the tickets, and since then she and Wendy have become very close.
Her email with VIP tickets to one of Coldplay’s Croke Park shows had been in her junk folder for almost a year, though, so she almost missed another chance.
Itwas an emailfrom Coldplay’s public relations team. They had seen her story in the news and wanted to give her two VIP tickets to any of the four nights.
At the show on Sunday night, Brenda’s son Killian will be there with her. She might even meet Chris Martin and the rest of the band. She was also given a custom-designed T-shirt with the Irish word “grá” on it, which she hopes to wear to the show.
