A group of devoted Taylor Swift fans in New Zealand have resorted to a uniquely charming form of persuasion to get the global superstar to visit their country: offering up their own weddings.
In a viral petition that has captured the imagination of 'Swifties' nationwide, fans are pleading with the 'Cruel Summer' hitmaker to add New Zealand dates to her record-breaking Eras Tour. The campaign, titled 'We're getting married just to get Taylor Swift to come to NZ', has gained significant traction online.
A Desperate Bid for a Visit
With the Eras Tour bypassing New Zealand and neighbouring Australia set for multiple shows, Kiwi fans felt left out. The petition's creators, in a stroke of comic genius, suggested that if Taylor Swift needed a reason to come, they would be willing to get married en masse just to give her a series of exclusive wedding gigs.
The petition reads: 'We note she is going to Australia... and we would love for her to come to New Zealand. We know she is very busy, so we were thinking if she needed more than one reason to come... we would be happy to get married while she is here.'
Social Media Goes Wild
The hilarious and heartfelt plea has spread like wildfire across social media platforms, with thousands of fans signing and sharing the petition. It highlights the deep disappointment and FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) felt by fans in countries not included on major world tours.
While the chances of Swift actually officiating or performing at a mass wedding are undoubtedly slim, the campaign successfully underscores the passionate demand for her presence and the creative lengths fans will go to for a chance to see their idol perform live.
