Taylor Swift embarked on The Eras tour on March 17, 2023 with a show in the Glendale, Arizona and currently the tour is set to end on August 24, 2024 with a performance in London, UK. The tour has sold a million tickets so far, but due to repeated crashes of Ticketmaster, as well as price scalping, many fans were unable to procure tickets for the US leg of the tour.
Now, a new speculation has emerged on social media, particularly the Twitter handle, #deuxmoi that the pop singer might extend the tour even further and provide a second US tour leg, raising the hopes of Swifties across the country:
Taylor Swift second US tour leg speculation generates fan reactions
The original tweet does not explicitly state that the tour will be Taylor Swift's and there are other A-lister singers on tour currently, including Beyonce with her Rennaissance tour, which is leading the race in both sales and popularity against the Eras tour.
However, Swifties have pounced upon the announcement, with many taking to Twitter to respond to the original tweet with the claim that said A lister is indeed Taylor Swift and no other. Notably, so far, no other fandom has come forward to claim their singer is the aforementioned A lister singer.
Some fans argued that those Swifties who have not been able to see the first US tour leg should be given the chance to watch the tour, if the speculations are true. Others pointed out a second US tour leg would be logical given the Ticketmaster ticketing debacle that plagued the first tour. Some fans simply requested for another tour as they had been unable to get tickets.
