Swift’s “Lover Fest” was set to take place in festival venues on the East and West coast, but have been postponed due to COVID-19.
Swift’s specials are always to die for and I have high expectations for this one as well. Her Paris concert was reportedly amazing and I can’t wait to watch it even from a distance. It’ll almost be like we’re all there.
The Netflix special of her “Reputation” tour was phenomenal, so let’s hope it’s as good as that.
