Aussie celebrities slammed for taking young children to Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift‘s Sydney concerts have been a star-stopping extravaganza. 

The likes of Rita Ora, Katy Perry, Rebel Wilson and Toni Collette have been spotted among the crowds at Accor stadium this weekend. 

But the presence of famous faces and their children have upset some Taylor Swift fans. 

Radio host Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli, radio star Fifi Box and former The Project star Carrie Bickmore all shared images of their young children falling asleep in their arms at the monster three hour concerts, much to the ire of Swifties. 

Many were angered that tickets went to the small children of A-listers who could not enjoy the full show while fans missed out. 

‘Cute but all these little kids with tickets and falling asleep kills me!’ wrote one person on Facebook. 

‘The hardest concert in the world to get tickets too and soooo many fans missing out for kids to sleep through it, bet if this was an over 12 event then many more fans would be there’.

‘I agree with you, there were people with tired kids giving their tickets to the last half of the concert when we sat outside to listen. Lovely and kind people, they embody being a Swiftie’ said another. 

‘We had four next to us fast asleep for half the show in Melbourne. Take them home and put them in bed if they are not up to it’ they added. 

‘Literally why kids under 10 should not be taken to concerts. I really think there should be an age limit on shows when they are that sold out’ said another. 

‘So many people would have paid double to go or would have liked to have attended but so many families leave half way through with tired and emotional children’ one more agreed. 

Others disagreed, with one person saying, ‘If the parent pays, the kids deserve to be there. Most fall asleep at the end and have enjoyed every bit prior. Don’t like it? Try harder to get tix next time’. 

‘The amount of people who think children in attendance falling asleep is a waste of a ticket is beyond me. It’s still an experience of a lifetime for them’ one more said. 

‘They’ll remember going to this concert with their mom/dad/friends forever… just because they’re little and fall asleep doesn’t mean it’s wasteful’.
