Taylor Swift voices support for LGBTQ community during Chicago concert
Taylor Swift celebrated Pride Month by voicing her support for her LGBTQ+ fans during a concert in Chicago, Illinois on Friday.
The Shake It Off singer took time out of her Soldier Field show on Friday to give a shout out to those who are "loving who they want to love" and "identifying how they identify" in honour of Pride Month. "This is a safe space for you.
This is a celebratory space for you. And one of the things that makes me feel so prideful is getting to be with you, and watching you interact with each other, and being so loving, and so thoughtful, and so caring," she said, according to footage recorded by concertgoers.
Taylor then praised the crowd for screaming the lyrics to You Need to Calm Down, which she wrote in support of the LGBTQ+ community. "I wish that every place was safe and beautiful for people in the LGBTQ community, I really wish that," she continued. "We can't talk about Pride without talking about pain.
