At her previous run of Wembley Stadium ‘Eras’ shows in June, Mette, Griff and Benson Boone opened for Swift alongside Paramore, taking one show each.
In other Swift news, the singer released another variant of her recent album ‘The Tortured Poets Department‘ featuring a “First Draft Phone Memo” version of ‘My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys’, available for only 24 hours.
Fans have speculated the release was timed in an effort to block both Charli XCX and Billie Eilish from charting with their recently released albums, ‘Brat‘ and ‘Hit Me Hard and Soft‘. When both artists teamed up on ‘Guess’, Swift promptly released another variant of the album, as her critics predicted she would.
