[icymist]

Taylor Swift took time out of her Chicago stop of her Ticket Master-breaking Eras Tour on Friday to dedicate a speech to the LGBTQ+ community.

The Midnights singer told the crowd of thousands that her shows were a safe space for queer people.

“I’m looking out tonight, I’m seeing so many incredible individuals who are living authentically and beautifully and this is a safe space for you,” Swift, 33, said in a fan-captured video shared on Twitter.

...“There have been so many harmful pieces of legislation that have put people in the [LGBTQ+ community] at risk,” she said. “It’s painful for everyone, every ally, every loved one, every person of these communities, and that’s why I’m always posting, ‘This is when the midterms are, this is when these important key primaries are.’”

Swift emphasized the importance of voting and making sure lawmakers know that LGBTQ+ rights matter.
