Taylor Swift Vienna terror plot avoided?

[kbaxter60]

We get so little international news these days, that the stuff that bubbles to the top is getting "weird".

They cancelled three appearances in Vienna. Swift was apparently not the target; just random terrorist BS.

Sorry, it's from MSN.

Swift is one of the world's best-selling music artists with estimated global sales of 200 million records. Seven of her albums have opened with over one million pure sales in a week. She has appeared on lists of history's greatest artists from publications such as Rolling Stone, Billboard, and Forbes and is the only artist to have been named the Time Person of the Year (2023). Her accolades include 14 Grammy Awards, a Primetime Emmy Award, 40 American Music Awards, 39 Billboard Music Awards, and 23 MTV Video Music Awards; she has won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year, the MTV Video Music Award for Video of the Year, and the IFPI Global Recording Artist of the Year a record four times each.

Swift remains the world's highest-grossing female touring act ever, with cumulative ticket sales at $1.96 billion as of November 2023, per Pollstar. Forbes has estimated her net worth at $1.3 billion as of May 2024.[553] Forbes had also named her the annual top-earning female musician in 2016, 2019, 2021, and 2022. She was the highest-paid celebrity of 2016 with $170 million—a feat recognized by Guinness World Records as the highest annual earnings ever for a female musician, which she herself surpassed with $185 million in 2019.


Despite her success, i would NOT recommend dating her.

Yeah; the uncovered, alleged plot wasn't an assassination attempt. It was about the size of the crowds that Swift pulls.

One of the two ISIS a-holes confessed to planning to "kill as many people as possible outside the concert venue." The show organizers said they had expected up to 65,000 fans inside the stadium at each concert and as many as 30,000 onlookers outside. Big-time target-rich environment.

When I got my CDL I learned why you need to respect those Swift trucks when you see them on the road- they will hire just about anybody with zero experience. I saw a Swift semi on over it's side just last week, laying there on I-45.

"Dancing with Our Hands Tied"

I have been under the impression that Taylor Swift is a terrorist plot.

Hey i put it on quotes, what more do you want?

Wife loves her, I haven't liked one song yet. But that's the way of the world. This could have been the death of thousands in stampede. Glad the plot was foiled. Swift is one savvy business woman and has done quite well for herself. Can't knock capitalism.

Fellers, I am afraid I did y'all a major disservice. This wasn't posted to drive a discussion about Taylor Swift. You had two teens radicalized by ISIS who apparently planned to drive a bomb-laden truck into a large crowd, and may have done so had not one of them bragged about the plan.
We have zero knowledge of how many similar teens have entered via our southern border.
If they'd pulled it off, the TS part would be a footnote.
And it COULD happen here in the US.
Peace out.
