Cala Rocashock Media. Welcome to Taylor Swift Today. I'm your host, and Swifties, brace yourselves for some shocking news that's shaking up the Aras tour. In a stunning turn of events, Taylor's three concerts in Vienna, Austria have been canceled due to a serious security threat. I know, I know, I'm clutching my pearls too. Austrian authorities announced on Wednesday that they arrested two suspects in connection with plans for an alleged attack in the Vienna region.

0:50 Talk about a cruel summer right. Veracuta Music, the promoter for Taylor's Austrian shows, dropped this bombshell on social media. With confirmation from government officials of a planned. Terrorist attack at Ernst Hoppel Stadium, we have no choice but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone's safety. I mean, can you imagine. It's like someone's trying to write their own villainous version of bad Blood. The police revealed that one of the suspects, a nineteen year old Austrian citizen, is believed to be a sympathizer of the Islamic State. They even found chemical substances at the suspects home. It's like a real life thriller movie, except our girl, Taylor is at the center of it. Now. I know we're all devastated about missing out on three nights of Taylor Magic, but remember, Swifty's safety comes first.

1:37 Taylor's team hasn't commented yet, but I'm sure she's as heartbroken as we are. On the bright side, all tickets will be automatically refunded within the next ten business days, so at least our wallets won't be singing all too well sad version. This is a developing story, and we'll keep you updated as we learn more. In the meantime, let's send all our love and support to Taylor and her team. Remember, Swifti's were stronger together and not even this can shake our love for Taylor. Now, hold on to your friendship bracelets, because we've got some political intrigue, some eagle eyed fans spotted what they thought was Vice President Kamala Harris's silhouette in one of Taylor's recent Instagram posts from her Warsaw shows. Turns out it was just one of her backup singers. But can you imagine the power if Taylor did endorse Harris? It would be like Long Live come to life. Remember when Taylor endorsed Biden and Harris Back in twenty twenty, she told v magazine, I will proudly vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in this year's presidential election. Who knows what she'll do this time around. One thing's for sure. When Taylor speaks swifties listen, it's like she has her own political style.

2:47 You know. Speaking of style, Taylor's dropping some big news about her London shows. She's bringing in a different special guest for each of her five Wembley Stadium concerts, from Sophia Isella to It's like Taylor's creating her own mini festival. I don't know about you, but I'm already planning my outfit changes for each night, Taylor shared on her Instagram story. I asked them to play on this tour because I love their music and I think they'll absolutely smash it in Wembley Stadium. Go check out their music if you haven't already. It's gonna be a fun five nights, Five Nights of Taylor. It's like Christmas came early. In chart news, our queen is back on top. The Tortured Poets Department has reclaimed the number one spot on the Billboard two hundred for a thirteenth week. That's right, thirteen, Taylor's lucky number.

3:37 It's like the universe is aligning just for her at this point. I wouldn't be surprised if Billboard just renamed the chart Taylor's Top two hundred. This latest achievement extends several of Taylor's all time records. It's posted the most weeks at number one of any Taylor album. Elvis Who the King might have left the building, but Queen Taylor is here to stay. Now, let's talk about Sabrina Carpenter. Remember when everyone freaked out about her skims campaign. Well, Sabrina's setting the record straight. She told Variety the posts about me having to ask for her permission. No, she's one of my best best friends and we grab dinner or text and catch up like you would with your best friend. Honestly, can you imagine being in that group chat.

4:19 I'd probably faint from excitement. Sabrina also shared some sweet insights into her friendship with Taylor. She said, it's so cool for me to get a perspective on this whole process from her, in the community of artists that I feel I'm close to, to get advice from them on stuff that you can't just ask the internet. Ah, It's like Taylor's running her own little mentorship program. Where do I sign up? In Award show news, Taylor's leading the pack with ten VMA nominations, eight for Fortnite alone. I swear Taylor collects VMA nominations like I collect her album variants, obsessively and with great joy. She's up for Artists of the Year, Best Pop, and pretty much every other category they could think of. At this rate, they might as well rename it the Taylor Swift Video Music Awards. More in a moment, and finally, let's check in on Travis.

5:22 Apparently he's been busy making his Kansas City mansion feel like home for Taylor. He's even upgraded the kitchen because she loves to cook for him and their friends. Is anyone else picturing Taylor in an apron whipping up some cookies while humming, shake it off? Just me okay? A source told Life and Style she can't wait to root Travis on at Kansas City Chief's home games and really focus on him without having one foot out the door. He has done what he can to make his house feel like home to her, even upgrading the kitchen because she loves to cook for him and their friends. And get this, Travis has actually talked about Taylor's cooking before. At a press conference earlier this year, he said, Taylor makes a great poptart and cinnamon roll. Poptart cinnamon roll.

6:06 Is there anything this woman can't do? I'm half expecting her to release a cookbook next Baking in the Deep? Anyone? The source also added, friends say this downtime is exactly what Taylor needs and won't be surprised if it leads up to a wedding. Now. I'm not saying we should start planning our swifty wedding outfits, but I'm not saying that either. Can you imagine a Taylor Swift wedding? The vows would probably be more poetic than anything Shakespeare ever wrote. Speaking of poetry, let's not forget that Taylor's been giving us glimpses into her songwriting process. She recently released first draft bone memo versions of some tracks from the Tortured Poet's Department. It's like getting a peek into Taylor's brain, and let me tell you, it's a magical place.

6:51 As we wrap up today's news, I can't help but feel overwhelmed by the impact Taylor has on all of us. Whether she's selling out stadiums, topping charts, or or just being an amazing friend. She continually proves why she's not just a singer, but a cultural icon. And that's it for today's news. By the way, we now have some podcast merch available for sale on our website.
