Taylor Swift fans claim woman who booked 191 hotel rooms before concert defrauded them [Video]

NEW ORLEANS (WVUE/Gray News) – Some Taylor Swift fans now have “bad blood” with a Louisiana woman who booked 191 rooms at the Holiday Inn Downtown in New Orleans for the pop star’s concert series last weekend.

When Swift announced her New Orleans tour stop, Metairie’s Rebecca Fox jumped to block hotel rooms.

Fox says she charged a deposit of $25 per person on top of the nearly $500 per room.

Last week, Fox said the hotel agreed to her event, which she promoted on social media.

“They were extremely apprehensive, but I think once their marketing and sales person said, ‘I don’t think you all understand what Taylor can do and will bring to our property,’ they changed their minds,” Fox said.

Fox said she did not upcharge for the rooms, nor profit off the bookings. She said the $25 per person she charged went to fund her planned “Eras Convention.”
