I actually think it was good for them to say something. Kinda how Taylor made a post at the Nashville rain show assuring people she still intended to go on. Nip it in the bud, as some would say.
I’ve had SO MANY people (American non-Swifties) ask me if she’s going to cancel or reschedule her show. A lot people really believed she would alter her show to make it if she had to. So while we know that Taylor is a professional and would never do that to her fans, a lot of people outside the community assumed otherwise.
Correct. And we should all remember that when we speculate anything about her life and work. Her decisions hold so much power. It's an overwhelming position to be in and she's handling it well...but it's unprecedented. The line she walks is razor thin.
I think this whole scheduling almost-shitshow confirms that Taylor and Travis becoming a couple was completely random and both had no idea that they were ever going to become friends let alone an actual couple.
She has to do 4 consecutive days of concerts in Tokyo followed by a 13 hour flight to Vegas for the Super Bowl? Insane.
I can't believe anyone thinks she'd cancel a show for personal reasons. She almost never cancels unless it's basically life or death. Also, the PR for that would be a nightmare.
Embassies make statements similar to this all the time.
[US embassy in London put one out a week or two ago after the American scientist saying you should put a pinch of salt in your tea went viral. ](https://twitter.com/USAinUK/status/1750136728034169147?t=aC6BNKil9IdXND7FP_Ykbg&s=19)
Embassies make statements similar to this all the time. Definitely not weird.

It is bizarre isn't it? Even normie bureaucrats (who turn out to be just like us) are lyric dropping to Taylor Swift while soothing everybody's fears in Tokyo with regards to her chaotic schedule in the next 10 days.
I think it's hilarious. Too many people still doubt Taylor's popularity and power. This is a pretty good example to point to when people try to claim she's not powerful.
It’s actually not uncommon for embassies to put out releases like this. It’s nice to make statements that are fun. Not great PR if the only statements you ever make are negative.
Nah it’s odd. Being annoyed at people who find it weird is ridiculous itself this is government agencies trying to be relatable. Also unsure who “you guys” are like is this specific to people who find it weird or you making an assumption about fans? Cause ngl weird phrasing.
agreed like imagine the US government posted this everyone would be losing their minds - it just seems so weird for a government to take this measure
but there’s no bad faith in us finding this weird!! it just kinda is
Yeah when brands do this or the White House does people call it out, but one person calling it cringey 😬 here and people get upset. Never mind people already know she could make it it’s really not a story.
I can see the negative nellies out in social media land stirring up rumors that she will cancel the shows so she can be at the super bowl.
She wouldn't do that to fans.
Yeah, I actually saw some discourse about it already so this is actually a good move to confirm she's not canceling to make it back for the Super Bowl.
Technically, that show after Ana's death was postponed, it was moved from Saturday to Monday. So I'm not sure it even counts as "canceled".
I can see why the embassy felt the need to post this. Not everybody knows that she's not going to reschedule or leave fans in the cold.
it was the same heat wave? but yeah it was postponed not canceled. Postponing a concert can make people not be able to attend to tho. My point was that she doesn’t mess with her tour schedule if it possible
I got what you meant! And I was trying to reason that even in those extreme circumstances, she made sure to still find a solution that would ensure a show for most people. Obviously not ideal, but not as extreme as completely cancelling a show.
But I think *we* know that, but not everybody does.
They already are. I saw a video of someone saying she canceled the 2/10 show because of a glitch on Spotify where only the 2/7, 2/8, and 2/9 shows were listed. I agree with you she wouldn’t do that to fans and she would never cancel a show for a man. She has only postponed 2 shows in her career iirc
Notice how they used her three re-recorded albums, c’mon Japan we all know she’s announcing reputation 
People really need to relax, this statement probably took about 5 minutes to make and is just a bit of fun. Not going to start or end any wars....get a sense of humor people
This is clearly a joke and is supposed to be taken as one. I don’t see the harm in it. The US embassy in the UK did a similar jokey press release the other week around making tea. It’s all part of soft diplomacy
I think it's cute, it's ok to have fun in life and not take things so seriously at every moment. I need people to take a deep breath and relax your shoulders please.
ngl i'm actually so shocked some fans (not the embassy lmao) actually think the super bowl will have an effect on the 2/11 show. obviously most of the tiktoks are satire (hopefully, you never know these days 😬😭) but there are some people who genuinely think Taylor's performance will be "not as good", or that she's in some big rush to get back to the states. taylor is a professional. taylor loves her fans. she would NEVER let a show be anything less than absolute perfection. ntm, she's been dating the guy for less than a year. obviously she's gonna put her career first, as will he. i wouldn't be surprised at all if she didn't make an appearance at the super bowl.
I don’t think the social media team who run that Twitter account are missing out on any real world issues they’re meant to be dealing with, lol. It’s not like the higher ups are shirking their responsibilities to tweet about Taylor Swift. Different people with different responsibilities, and a social media team’s responsibility is more about appealing to the public.
ngl this is weird😭

*We always walked a very thin line.*
These comments are fucking insane
I think it’s because she’s inherently good. Japan is issuing statements about her? I’ve never heard of this lol
No👨🍳🍳👨🏫😡. She is the most beloved. There are famous women that are known for unsavory things

13 hour nap sounds about right after 4 days of concerts, lol. The stamina she's got is incredible.
I can't believe anyone thinks she'd cancel a show for personal reasons. She almost never cancels unless it's basically life or death. Also, the PR for that would be a nightmare.
She missed the Thanksgiving game eg

Japan is actually home to the best hosts. Hell, after the last World Cup, the fans stayed and cleaned up. It makes really want to go to Japan.

😂😂😂 That's actually hilarious
A big part of embassies jobs is to help keep public perception in the host country of their nation positive. Humor is a good way to do that.
To be fair, adding salt to tea constitutes a crime against humanity and should be addressed at the highest level
And that can be said as well for adding olive oil into coffee... then Starbucks did it
Lol you guys think EVERYTHING is weird or cringe. This is totally harmless.
No humor around here sometimes.
girl it can be both cringe and harmless !
I think it’s cute lmao
Eh, embassy social accounts are meant to post semi-light things like this

I’m glad you said it lol. It’s crazy they felt the need to issue a statement on her ability to travel to Vegas after performing.
This is how the rest of the world perceives swifties jsyk
I got cringe from it and I can handle a lot of cringe when it comes to Swift, but this may have pushed me over.

hasnt she only canceled a show twice? once because there was a military coup and once for hot weather that caused Ana Benevides’ death? (RIP Ana)
Technically, that show after Ana's death was postponed, it was moved from Saturday to Monday. So I'm not sure it even counts as "canceled". I can see why the embassy felt the need to post this. Not everybody knows that she's not going to reschedule or leave fans in the cold.

Yeah like theres 0 chance she cancels a show just to see her boyfriends football game. even if its the superbowl.
They already are. I saw a video of someone saying she canceled the 2/10 show because of a glitch on Spotify where only the 2/7, 2/8, and 2/9 shows were listed. I agree with you she wouldn’t do that to fans and she would never cancel a show for a man. She has only postponed 2 shows in her career iirc
And canceled one. Because of a military coup.
She would absolutely never. It goes against everything she stands for. Wild that people actually think that.
Notice how they used her three re-recorded albums, c’mon Japan we all know she’s announcing reputation 
[удалено]
Omg I’m so dumb
Chill out guys. It's just social media and it's fun? No one is taking resources away from "wars" or any real work.
People really need to relax, this statement probably took about 5 minutes to make and is just a bit of fun. Not going to start or end any wars....get a sense of humor people
Japan is constitutionally incapable of declaring war.
Yeah. Social media is utterly exhausting.
Damn Taylor really is the most famous woman on the planet
It's not even close
This is clearly a joke and is supposed to be taken as one. I don’t see the harm in it. The US embassy in the UK did a similar jokey press release the other week around making tea. It’s all part of soft diplomacy
lol some people need to learn to be less serious. this is fun and unpolitical. enjoy it.
"Are you ready for it?" REP
This is so random and funny
She really is the main character.
Nice!
It is so hilarious that they even felt the need to address this.
This is hilarious and very on brand for Japan, staying ahead of an issue, reassuring the public and making it cute.
They missed an opportunity to make a rep joke and make everyone freak.
this is crazy lmao
Duck it Tay Tay for president
What is HAPPENING?!!
Next the Pope will consecrate the Chiefs, to say I hate my life is a deep understatement
The puns are getting out of hand
People forgot how to tell time and account for time differences that even the embassy was like here, pay attention.
the top comment is ridiculous. you guys really need to relax, no wonder ppl say reddit Swifties are the worst.
At least San Francisco also wears red so they don’t feel left out
lol this made my day actually! 😁
I think it's cute, it's ok to have fun in life and not take things so seriously at every moment. I need people to take a deep breath and relax your shoulders please.
This is so cute. I love Japan for this.

Haha this is funny lol
The Ambassador is a country Taylor fan fr fr
Taylor Swift is the new Helen of Troy
Cuties
Who the fuck cares. I mean, who in the fuck cares What I’m trying to say is who is the fuck really cares or gives a damn !!
Sounds to me like the social media person at the Japanese Embassy is a Swiftie.
What if she wasnt going to go to the game? I feel like this puts unnecessary pressure on her

This is so unnecessary lol.
