Taylor Swift is making a documentary about her record-breaking world tour, Eras. The American has just finished the last event of her European visit with a concert at London’s Wembley Stadium and has documented her experience of the eventful world tour. Reports indicate that the documentary will include details of the murder of three young girls in England at a Taylor Swift dance class and the cancelation of Austrian concerts due to an ISIS-related terror attack threat.
British media outlets claim the film will be a “warts and all insight into the tour and the mechanics behind it.” The last documentary about the star’s life was released on Netflix in 2020, when she revealed the difficulties associated with being one of the world’s biggest stars and the often chaotic lifestyle it brings with it. In Miss Americana, journalist Lana Wilson followed Swift through the production of two albums and explored what critics describe as an astonishing musical talent. She talks about her family, including her father’s fears for her safety and her mother’s cancer diagnosis, as well as her own struggles with eating disorders.
Born in Pennsylvania in 1989, the singer’s parents are a Merrill Lynch stockbroker and a marketing executive. She began her love of show business and country music at a very young age, taking vocal and acting lessons in New York City as a child. Her mother took her to Nashville at age 11, and the pair pursued her musical career relentlessly, eventually turning her into one of the most successful musicians of all time.
Swift’s fame and commitment to the rights of women and girls have made her a target of anti-feminist backlash, including during the Eras tour. At the close of the European leg of her tour, the singer spoke of her fear and the guilt she felt when events in Vienna, Austria, were shut down. Police arrested three teenagers for plotting to blow up one of her shows, prompting a significant security boost when she arrived in the UK – where children were murdered dancing to her music.
Three young girls died when a teenage killer entered a dancehall in Southport, England, and stabbed more than a dozen people. The atrocity led to weeks of rioting across Britain.
