Now, the band have axed their shows in Massachussetts, Pennsylvania, and two shows in South Carolina. No explanation was given for the cancellation.

Taylor Swift’s lawyers have called Maren Wade’s trademark infringement lawsuit against the singer’s ‘The Life Of A Showgirl’ album “nonsensical”. The popstar was sued last March by Wade, a former Las Vegas showgirl, for allegedly disregarding Wade’s claim to a similar name.

The original suit accused Swift of using her album title on merchandise and consumer goods, “all directed at the same audience Plaintiff had spent years cultivating”.…
