A growing number of Swifties are calling on Taylor Swift to break her silence on Gaza

Angela Yang is a culture and trends reporter for NBC News.

Ahead of the Madrid leg of Taylor Swift’s globe-trotting Eras Tour, some fans had their minds on more than just the pop star’s set. In the hours before her Wednesday concert, the hashtag #SwiftiesForPalestine was among the top trends on X, easily besting the hashtag for that evening’s show. Many posts called on concert attendees to bring signs or fly Palestinian flags at the event, hoping they’d catch Swift’s attention and encourage her to speak out.

Many Swifties also noted that Paramore, the band that is opening for Swift during the European leg of the Eras Tour, shared a statement on its Instagram story Wednesday spotlighting Save The Children and Doctors Without Borders, two nongovernmental organizations providing humanitarian aid in Gaza. A representative for Swift did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
