The lanyard that Wu Zhihong handed Yan Shuqing to help him illegally enter the Taylor Swift concert venue on Mar 7, 2024, and a file photo of the State Courts of Singapore SINGAPORE: A man who helped another man illegally enter Taylor Swift's concert in Singapore was jailed for two weeks on Monday .
American pop star Taylor Swift performed six concerts at the National Stadium within the Singapore Sports Hub as part of The Eras Tour in early March. The court heard that Yan searched for re-sold Singapore Eras Tour tickets and came across an offer to purchase a ticket for 3,000 yuan . Yan was told to arrive at the National Stadium before that start of the concert on Mar 7, 2024 and that someone would help him through the gates.
"The lanyard was genuine official event merchandise which was given out to VIP Singapore Eras Tour ticket-holders. The accused had obtained the lanyard before meeting with Yan, despite not being the holder of a VIP Singapore Eras Tour ticket," said the prosecution. Wu also handed Yan a wristband. As the concertgoer in front of him was entering the turnstile, Wu pushed Yan forward. At the same time, Wu showed the security officer at the turnstile gate his phone and spoke to him in an attempt to distract him from Yan’s antics.
Mr Ang said that the gate was crowded then, with many people waiting to enter through the turnstiles.Wu is not the only man to have been charged with helping others illegally enter the concert venue. Two others, Yang Chenguang and Li Xiao Wei, were the first to be charged with abetting concertgoers in cheating the event organiser.He sought two to four weeks' jail for Wu.
