Boyzone Singer Shane Lynch Makes a Bold Claim About Taylor Swift
L: Shane Lynch, R: Taylor Swift
Shane Lynch, a member of Irish boy band Boyzone, which disbanded—for the second time—in 2019, has an awfully bold accusation regarding Taylor Swift.
The musician, who is a devout Christian, claims the touring artist is advocating for Satanism on her record-breaking Eras Tour, telling Sunday World in a new interview that "she has two or three different demonic rituals to do with the pentagrams on the ground, to do with all sorts of stuff on her stage."
To be fair, she's not the only one—at least not according to Lynch, who believes "a lot of the artists out there" have "Satanic rituals live in front of 20,000 people without them realising and recognising.”
“You’ll see a lot of hoods up and masks on and fire ceremonies," he elaborated. “But to a lot of people it’s just art and that’s how people are seeing it, unfortunately.”
It's not the first time Swift has been centered in similar conspiracies, even jokingly addressing them once when she posted an eerie clip from a concert captioned, "Never beating the sorcery allegations ????," which have, most recently, been levied in regards to her performance of "Willow" on tour.
Lynch, 47, further suggested that music in general is "dangerous," avoiding certain types because "it doesn't suit [his] spirit."
He explained, “When it comes to a lot of the music...there is a lot of hidden Satanic and a lot of evil within them, including down to the beats. It’s very real."
Despite believing it poses a risk to children, "get[ting] them to sway away from anything Godly, anything controlled or disciplined," he's determined to let his daughters, Billie, 15, and Marley, 11, "learn for themselves."
No word, though, on how the girls feel about the "Mastermind" songstress.
