Taylor Swift fans in Vienna gather in their hundreds to sing together after the popstar's concerts were cancelled when ISIS teen who plotted to slaughter audience members by driving into crowd outside venue then detonate suicide vest was arrested
Hundreds of Taylor Swift fans have flooded the streets of Vienna to unite in song after the Austrian leg of the singer's sold-out Eras Tour was cancelled over an ISIS terrorism plot.
Scores of fans donning their elaborate concert outfits and friendship bracelets are meeting across the city to sing and dance to the popstar's hits.
Videos shared on TikTok and Twitter show crowds of Swifties - the term used to describe Swift's fans - remained strong as their voices echoed through the Austrian capital today while they sang the lyrics they had hoped to hear during her three-hour-plus concerts this weekend.
The group, suggesting that although the concert was cancelled the terrorists still did not win, belted out the words to 'Karma', as well as Swift's protest song 'Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince' and 'You Need to Calm Down', which is widely recognised as her anti-hate and pro-LGBTQ anthem.
Police arrested the 19-year-old who allegedly plotted the foiled attack on Wednesday morning. His accomplice, aged 17, was detained in the afternoon. Authorities say both suspects appear to have been inspired by the Islamic State group and al-Qaida.

00:00For a moment, a band of leaving ripped our jeans down to room.
00:11Long live the walls we crashed through.
00:15How the kingdom lights shine just for me and you.
00:19I was screaming, long live all the magic we made.
00:24Then bring on all the magic we made.
00:27Then bring on all the pretenders.
00:30One day, we will be remembered.
00:35That's what I'm wishing for right now.

00:57We can never take what we've got home.
01:03We'll never take what we've got.
01:05We'll never take what we've got.
01:06We grew in the name of being honest.
01:09I'm a trump, I'm a duck.
01:11We took faith for lying here.
01:13I remember it all, all, all.
01:20It all fell, it all fell.
01:22But I'm in it, you have to try.
01:26You've double-crossed my mind.
01:30If we had been closer, if they'd taken me.
01:34It would have been fine.
01:36Now make me want to die.
01:40At the end of the line for me, for what she can never be.
01:43You can never love me too.
01:46I reflect on you.
01:48We grew in the name of being honest.
