British pop star Shane Lynch has stirred controversy by accusing Taylor Swift of engaging in ‘Satanic’ rituals during her Eras tour concerts. The accusations come amidst Taylor’s sold-out global tour, where she recently wrapped up a series of shows in Sydney and Melbourne.

Lynch, a Pentecostal born-again Christian and member of Boyzone, claimed that many artists, including Taylor Swift, incorporate ‘demonic’ rituals into their performances, often unnoticed by audiences. He cited hooded figures, masks, fire ceremonies, and pentagrams as elements of these alleged rituals.

Specifically targeting Taylor Swift, Lynch mentioned her use of pentagrams and other symbolic elements during her performances, suggesting they were part of ‘demonic rituals’ disguised as art.

The singer expressed his concern over the ‘hidden Satanic’ messages he perceives in hip-hop and Grime music, stating that he has ceased listening to these genres due to the perceived ‘evil’ within the music’s beats.

Taylor Swift’s representatives have not yet responded to the accusations made by Shane Lynch. The singer has not publicly commented on the matter.

This controversy follows a recent viral moment during Taylor Swift’s performance of “Cruel Summer,” where some interpreted a hand gesture she made as ‘the sign of the horns,’ a symbol associated with Satanism.

Additionally, Taylor Swift faced scrutiny after her father, Scott Swift, was accused of assaulting a local photographer in Sydney. The incident occurred following Taylor’s final Eras Tour concert in the city, prompting speculation and attention from media outlets.

Despite the controversy surrounding her tour and personal life, Taylor Swift continues to captivate audiences with her music and performances, solidifying her status as a global megastar.
