Taylor Swift Fan Party Creates 100+ COVID Cases, Dubbed Super Spreader Event

Singer TaylorSwift might be seeing “Red” when she hears this news!

Last Friday, at least 600 Taylor Swift fans reportedly had a massive party to celebrate the re-release of her recent “Red” album, dubbed “Red (Taylor’s Version).”

The event is now being called a super spreader event, as at least 100 people who attended the party have tested positive for COVID-19.

The event was so severe that New South Wales Health issued a public health alert, asking anyone who attended the “On Repeat: Taylor Swift Red Party” at Sydney’s Metro Theatre on Friday, December 10 to “immediately get tested and isolate for 7 days.”

“It is likely some of these cases have the Omicron variant of concern,” they noted. They are also asking all household contacts of party attendees to get tested and self-isolate “until a negative test result is received by everyone in the household.”

They further warn that “Penalties for non-compliance with the isolation, testing and quarantine requirements have increased to $5,000 for individuals (from $1,000), and $10,000 for corporations (from $5,000).”

According to NBC News, the area is currently experiencing a surge in new COVID-19 cases, with a seven-day case average reaching over a thousand people on Thursday.

Taylor Swift was not in attendance for the super spreader event, but she did host a party of her own on her 32nd birthday.

On Monday, Swift revealed that she had invited her friends over for a big bash; however, she mentioned that they had tested all of the attendees at the party to make sure that they were staying safe.

As it turns out, Swift shares a birthday with Alana Haim, who also turned 30 on Monday, December 13. Swift and HAIM previously collaborated on the country song, “no body no crime” off Swift’s ninth album, “evermore.”

“*don’t say it, don’t say it OKAY I’m saying it:* I’M FEELING 32,” Swift wrote in the caption in a nod to her hit song “22.”

“Thank you all for the birthday wishes,” the singer continued. “I love you all so much.”

It’s not clear if he was at the party, but recent “The Masked Singer” winner Todrick Hall took to Instagram to wish Taylor Swift a happy birthday. The recent reality singing competition winner had previously appeared in Swift’s star-studded music video for “You Need to Calm Down.”

“Happy Birthday @taylorswift,” he wrote. “You incredible, genuine, talented, hilarious human being! Mwah.”

Fans absolutely loved the tribute, with one fan writing, “Yassss I love the friendship you guys have. You guys are too cute.”
