Taylor Swift Returns To UK After Foiled Terrorist Attack

American singer Taylor Swift returns to Wembley Arena this evening for her first live performance after gigs in Austria were canceled due to an alleged planned terrorist attack.

Swift has previously performed three performances at the England football stadium as part of her record-breaking Eras tour, and she is returning for five more, the last of which will mark the end of the European tour's leg.

Her initial London gigs were among the tours' most memorable, with the diva surprising her American football player boyfriend Travis Kelce on stage during one.

Recall that three teenage girls died in July after being stabbed at a dance lesson inspired by her music in Southport, Merseyside.

Swift wrote on Instagram after the attack that she was "completely in shock" and "at a complete loss as to how to ever convey my sympathies to these families".

Just days later, Swift's three gigs in Vienna, scheduled for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday last week, were canceled owing to a suspected terrorist plot.

Fans of the celebrity have come together to help those who had tickets to the sold-out events in Austria, with many contributing their own.
