Taylor Swift knew there was “trouble when she walked in,” but little did she know that a former Irish boy band member would suggest that trouble might extend beyond just relationships and point fingers at some unholy activities, accusing her of performing Satanic rituals during her performances.
Former Boyzone star Shane Lynch alleged that Taylor Swift engages in demonic rites during her performances, reviving the Satanic panic all over again.
The 47-year-old Irish singer claimed that the Shake It Off hitmaker had demonstrated some wicked behavior in a secretive manner in front of millions of fans in a new damning interview published by the Irish tabloid newspaper Sunday World on Sunday (February 25).
A committed Christian, Shane went as far as to say that some music may currently be a danger to society because artists are channeling the Devil in plain sight.
“I think when you’re looking at a lot of the artists out there, a lot of their stage shows are Satanic rituals live in front of 20,000 people without them realizing and recognizing,” Shane told Sunday World.

The Donaghmede native continued: “You’ll see a lot of hoods up, and masks on, and fire ceremonies.
“Even down to Taylor Swift — one of the biggest artists in the world — you watch one of her shows, and 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.
“But to a lot of people, it’s just art, and that’s how people are seeing it, unfortunately.”
Self-professed witch Marsha Smith Shaw explained in an article for The Los Angeles Times that the pentagram had often been inaccurately characterized as a five-pointed star associated with satanic rituals when, in reality, the symbol has been revered for many ages and in many cultures as a symbol of the unity of all things and the essence of the life force.

Nevertheless, Taylor’s hand signals have sparked many Satanic conspiracies, with claims that she has been forming her hands into diabolical horns during shows, but it has been alternatively said that the Grammy-award-winning singer is using a sign-language gesture for “I love you.”
Shane, who started performing with Boyzone when he was 17, said even the beats of music can have an impact on people.
The father-of-two explained he had stopped listening to hip-hop and grime, firmly believing some types of music are damaging to society, especially to children.
He told Sunday World: “When it comes to a lot of the music that’s out there at the moment — more of the hip-hop side of things — there is a lot of hidden Satanic and a lot of evil within them, including down to the beats. It’s very real.
“Music attaches to your emotions. It has a connection to your spirit and how you feel.
“That’s why I’ve stopped listening to those types of music myself because it doesn’t suit my spirit.
“It 100 percent has an effect on society. I think our society has never been worse in many areas, and it starts from our children.

“It’s coming in right at our children from the very beginning to get them to sway away from anything Godly, anything controlled or disciplined.
“It’s getting wilder and wilder out there for a reason.”
Shane, who was described as a “hands-on dad,” admitted he didn’t police what his daughters Billie, 15, and Marley, 11, listen to.
The music star explained: “They love music, and I don’t try and stop them. They have to learn for themselves.
“I will encourage and explain to them. Music is dangerous.”
According to the University of Sydney, there is virtually no evidence to support the claim that music causes crime, and research has instead shown that policing music and musicians often criminalizes or marginalizes young people, particularly young people of color.

Shane, who is also an entrepreneur, aired his controversial views as he and his wife, Sheena, the Real Housewives of Cheshire star, launched their latest business venture under their Amen label.
The former boyband member initially shared his views on Satanism in the music industry last year on a Premier Christian Radio podcast, where he claimed Sam Smith and Beyoncé were “so demonic it’s unbelievable.”
The media personality reportedly added that during his time in the industry, he’d witnessed Satanic rituals where albums were prayed over to ensure success. There is no evidence for these claims.
A Reddit thread has recently brought people to argue whether Taylor’s music was “demonic” or not.
A Redditor recalled their own experience with the superstar’s music: “I had a conservative Christian friend text me recently requesting I untag her in an Eras Tour ticket giveaway.
“When I asked why, she said, “I don’t support what she’s about.’”

“When I pressed for more details, she cited the Willow performance during Eras as ‘demonic.’”
“Apparently, a Tiktok was circulating where a fan screamed, ‘Yes queen, summon the demons,’ and Taylor commented on it. They view it as ‘witchcraft.’
“So anyways, they’re burning all the witches even if you aren’t one.”
A person subsequently commented: “Wow that’s some old-school satanic panic.”
The Satanic panic was a moral panic consisting of thousands of unsubstantiated cases of Satanic ritual abuse, often involving child abuse, alleged in the United States in the 1980s, spreading throughout many parts of the world by the late 1990s.
The movement regularly blamed heavy metal music as a recruitment tool to lure in teenagers and morally corrupt them.
Decades later, the devilish panic has seemingly made a comeback, with popular culture and social media ferrying ideas about satanism and widespread child abuse, from the fringe to the mainstream, NBC News reported in 2022.
“Sometimes, a show is just a show,” a reader commented
