Taylor Swift faces criticism from disappointed fans for engaging in ‘shameless self-promotion’ at the blockbuster Eras Tour film premiere while remaining silent on the Israel terror attacks that have claimed 2,400 lives.

While Taylor Swift basked in the glare of photographers’ flashes last night at the blockbuster premiere of her Eras Tour film, many of her Jewish fans hoped she may use the moment to speak out about the ongoing terror in Israel.

But rather than comment on the attack by Hamas or escalating crisis, Swift – who is comfortable speaking out on US politics – stuck to self-promotion.She posed with Beyoncé, fawned in front of cameras and lapped up the closed-down Grove shopping center in Los Angeles.

On Instagram, Swift boasted: ‘PREMIERE DAY. Andddd I can’t really wrap my head around this but…. Look what you genuinely made me do: Due to unprecedented demand we’re opening up early access showings of The Eras Tour Concert Film on THURSDAY in America and Canada
