Taylor Swift has tested positive for COVID-19, leading her to postpone her sold-out Eras Tour show in Chicago—the first time in her 17-year career she has canceled due to illness. She shared the news with fans on Instagram, apologizing through tears and promising to make it up with “double the pyro and triple the surprises” when the shows are rescheduled for late August. Swift began feeling unwell after her last performance, and her team has now implemented strict testing protocols to protect crew and fans. Support has poured in online under #GetWellSoonTaylor, with fellow artists and fans praising her openness and urging her to rest and recover.
