“I wish that every place was safe and beautiful for people of the LGBTQ+ community.”
Taylor Swift is continuing to prove her allyship during Pride Month. On June 2, Swift gave an impassioned speech about supporting LGBTQ+ communities during her Eras Tour stop at Soldier Field in Chicago, Ill. Sitting at her piano before singing “champagne problems,” the singer took a moment to wish the crowd a happy Pride Month and acknowledge fans “who are loving who they want to love” and “identifying how they identify,” noting that her concerts are a “safe space” for them.
“It’s the most beautiful experience for me to look out into the crowds on this tour,” she said. “I’m looking out and seeing so many incredible individuals who are living authentically and beautifully. 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.
