Swift’s ‘Blue States Only’ Tour Falls Flat After Red State Boycott, Manager Confirms Low Sales
Taylor Swift, America’s reigning pop princess and pop culture lightning rod, made waves when she announced that her upcoming “Blue States Only” tour would avoid all states that voted Republican in the recent election, following Donald Trump’s surprising return to the Oval Office. However, as ticket sales roll in, the numbers are falling far short of expectations: a mere 1,300 tickets sold across the entire tour, a shocking figure for an artist who usually fills stadiums.
Sources close to the tour reveal that the decision to skip red states, in protest of the “massive red wave” sweeping conservative strongholds, has led to a surprising backlash from Swift’s usually loyal fan base. “Taylor thought her fans would rally behind her statement,” a member of her team commented, “but it turns out the statement might have been a little too exclusive for her broad fan demographic.”
