“I really can’t contain my excitement because…we’re adding 14 new shows to The Eras Tour,” Swift wrote on social media. “And I can travel the world doing shows with Paramore!! Me and Hayley have been friends since we were teenagers in Nashville and now we can frolic in the UK/Europe next summer??? I scream?? ?”
