Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushed Taylor Swift for not choosing Canada to appear in the list of international concert dates for The Eras tour.
This is what Trudeau conveyed when responding to Taylor Swift’s tweet when announcing the additional date of the Eras tour concert in Europe on Wednesday (5/7).
Justin Trudeau also “wooed” Taylor Swift by referencing a number of the musician’s hit songs such as Anti-Hero, Cruel Summer and I Know Places.
“Here I am, hello. I know a place in Canada that would love to welcome you. So don’t make this summer painful. We look forward to seeing you soon,” Trudeau said.
Taylor Swift previously announced 14 additional concert dates during the European leg of The Eras Tour. The new dates are in Paris, Stockholm, Lisbon, Lyon, Edinburgh, London, Dublin, Amsterdam, Milan, Gelsenkirchen, Warsaw and Vienna.
“I really can’t contain my excitement because…we’re adding 14 new shows to The Eras Tour,” Taylor Swift said. “And I travel the world doing shows with @paramore!!”
“Hayley and I have been friends since we were teenagers in Nashville and now we could be playing England/Europe next summer???” He continued.
Meanwhile, Taylor Swift has only performed 10 concerts in Asia, split between two locations: Singapore for six days and Tokyo, Japan for four days.
The six-day concert in Singapore attracted many fans. A number of rumors about the number of attendees registered for the Taylor Swift concert in Singapore have been circulating on social media.
According to reports, up to 22 million people have registered to participate in the general sale of Taylor Swift in Singapore on Friday (7/7). While the total number of tickets available is only around 300,000.
Many of these numbers are believed to come from Southeast Asian countries around Singapore, such as Indonesia, the Philippines and Malaysia, in addition to Singaporeans themselves. Moreover, there are also those in China and India who have many Taylor Swift fans.
