    Coldplay 's Chris Martin brought a little bit of Taylor Swift to Vienna, Austria on Wednesday (August 21) after the "Karma" songstress had to cancel a three-date run of shows at the same arena earlier this month due to terror threats .

    Inspired by how Swifties came together after the plot was foiled , the "Sky Full of Stars" hitmaker decided to pay tribute to the artist in the city that unfortunately missed out on three legendary Eras Tour shows.

    "Taylor is in America but we are here, and we have to do the best we can do, so I don't want to let you think that we don't care about Swifties in our band. I need you to find next to you the biggest Swiftie you know and tell me who they are."

    The standout invited two "genuine" Swifties on stage, along with opener Maggie Rodgers , to "test them on their Taylor Swift knowledge," sending love to music lovers across the globe before serenading the crowd with Swift's "Love Story".

    Three suspects were arrested on Wednesday , August 7th, for planning an attack at an Eras Tour show in Vienna at the Ernst Happel Stadion. Swift commented on the cancellations in a recent Instagram post, citing the end of the European leg of the beloved tour and how grateful she is for authorities.

    "Having our Vienna shows cancelled was devastating. The reason for the cancellations filled me with a new sense of fear, and a tremendous amount of guilt because so many people had planned on coming to those shows. But I was also so grateful to the authorities because thanks to them, we were grieving concerts and not lives. I was heartened by the love and unity I saw in the fans who banded together. I decided that all of my energy had to go toward helping to protect the nearly half a million people I had coming to see the shows in London."
