Taylor Swift is canceling all of her performances and appearances for the rest of the year because of the coronavirus pandemic.

"With many events throughout the world already cancelled, and upon direction from health officials in an effort to keep fans safe and help prevent the spread of COVID-19, sadly the decision has been made to cancel all Taylor Swift live appearances and performances this year," Swift’s representative said in a statement released on Friday.
