The long-awaited world tour by Swift \u2014 her previous one ended in 2018, pre-pandemic \u2014 was so anticipated by fans that when tickets went on sale, Ticketmaster immediately crashed.

She is in amazing shape. She loves connecting with her fans again.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Swift and Alwyn don\u2019t speak publicly about their romance much, but the singer did open up a little about their private dynamic when teasing her song <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/taylor-swift-midnights-track-lavender-haze\/\">\u201cLavender Haze\u201d last year<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI happened upon the phrase &#8216;lavender haze&#8217; when I was watching <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mad Men<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. I looked it up because I thought it sounded cool,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd it turns out that it\u2019s a common phrase used in the \u201950s where they would describe being in love. If you&#8217;re in the \u2018lavender haze,\u2019 then that meant you were in that all-encompassing love glow. And I thought that was really beautiful.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI guess, theoretically, when you\u2019re in the \u2018lavender haze,\u2019 you\u2019ll do anything to stay there,\u201d Swift continued. \u201cAnd not let people bring you down off of that cloud. I think that a lot of people have to deal with this now, not just like \u2018public figures,\u2019 because we live in the era of social media, and if the world finds out if you\u2019re in love with somebody they\u2019re going to weigh in on it. Like my relationship for six years we\u2019ve had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff, and we just ignore it. So this song is about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9593,"featured_media":73455,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[23,16],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Why Joe Alwyn Wasn&#039;t at Taylor Swift Eras Tour Opening Nights<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Taylor Swift&#039;s Eras Tour kicked off last week.
