We got another missive from a fan, Scott!

“I’m at MCG,” he writes. “Apparently boyfriends of Swifties attending the concert are required to wear Kansas Chief shirts. I assume there is a need to assert their cis-ness. I on the other hand feel the need to assert my sissy-ness.”

We love you Scott!

This feels like a good time to call out my colleague Claire Keenan , who rocked up to her shift like this:

Sabrina Carpenter finishes her set. Next stop: Taylor Swift

One person in the Guardian group chat has assessed it as “fine”; another says the Olivia Newton-John cover was the highlight, but mainly because “I don’t know a single song of hers”.

In more exciting news, someone has already uploaded the outro to Nonsense (the part she changes for every performance/city).

Has Taylormania surpassed Beatlemania?

John emailed the Guardian just now with this beautiful note:

I am in my 70s. Two years ago I had scarcely heard of Taylor Swift. Now here I am following your blog of her Melbourne concert. It is very moving. I hope all these wonderful young people have a magnificent time. I haven’t had this much fun since the Beatles in the 60s. It was easier to get tickets then.

Cute video from the fans

Dressing for a Taylor Swift concert is no easy feat. The concert is a journey through all Swift’s musical eras, broken up among her 10-album discography, and as we explained earlier, each “era” demands a very specific dress code. Tisha Aisyah Afliansh says as a recently engaged Taylor Swift fan she had no choice by to encompass the Lover era. “I just found this [dress] in H&M, but this has Lovers colours. And also matching rings and necklace; love, love.” Sarah Allsopp recreated the You Need to Calm Down music video, with fake butterfly tattoos on her back. After a quick YouTube search and little dance, I can confirm Swift sports the same back tattoo in the film clip. Guardian fact-checking at it’s finest right there.

Bree Leitch went one step further and got a snake tattoo on her arm “for the concert”. And yes, it’s real.

We’re getting some good Twitter/X footage, which bodes well for reception!

Here is Sabrina Carpenter performing Vicious.

Crowds are filling the stadium now while Sabrina performs. She’s doing a cover of Hopelessly Devoted to You, in honour of Olivia Newton-John .

Here’s one of Sabrina’s hit songs, Nonsense.

Apparently Sabrina just said “Australians are so hot”, which, true.

In other news, our Guardian group chat is popping off!

Sian said earlier:

The vibes are very calm! It’s like the opposite of a sport game. Even the cops have bracelets on.

I expect this has changed now that the concert has started.

Matilda shared a pic of the free light-up bracelets she’s secured:

What to expect from Sabrina Carpenter’s set?

We are told there was “just an announcement and some cheers” from within the stadium, indicating Sabrina Carpenter is on stage.

Carpenter’s hit songs are Feather and Nonsense, so they will definitely get a run – but Nonsense has its own moment to watch out for: each time she plays it live she adds a few city-specific (and usually sexually explicit) lines to the outro.

For example:

“I just wanna ride him like a rodeo / But first he gotta grow it like Pinocchio / Sorry I’m so vulgar, San Antonio.”

In fact, they got so raunchy that her performance on BBC’s Live Lounge was taken off YouTube shortly after being uploaded, and was promptly replaced with a version cutting abruptly before the outro.

Luckily we have no such qualms – she sang:

“I’m American I am not British / So BBC it stands for something different / This live lounge is just so lit because I’m in it.”

It’s a savvy trick that means each time she plays you can be sure hundreds of videos will be uploaded by fans. Now a viral sensation, she was quickly snapped up by Swift to open for her during the international leg of her tour – and since her first Eras slot, she’s established another TikTok-able moment: a small dance section of the song Feather.

bendito seja o dia que a Sabrina Carpenter acordou e pensou "e se eu der um chute quando eu cantar I slam the door em feather" ela não sabia que estaria mudando vidas com isso pic.twitter.com/v1uN2URyLK — bel (@chmpgrl) November 25, 2023

Who is Sabrina Carpenter?

We’re ten minutes from the scheduled start time for Sabrina Carpenter ’s opening set. We all know Swift’s 2016 villain arc (the Kanye West video) and redemption story (arguably the Lover era), but did you know that Carpenter has been through this public-opinion hero’s journey too?

The US pop star started off on the Disney Channel, playing Maya Hart on Girl Meets World. She put out a few songs during her stint on the show, and was liked well enough, but it was a different Disney star that threw Carpenter into the public eye: Olivia Rodrigo, whose hit debut album Sour was almost definitely about her breakup from Joshua Bassett, who, according to the album at least, began dating another girl VERY shortly after their split.

The hints in the lyrics of Rodrigo’s songs hint at who that girl could have been: Sabrina Carpenter, seen hanging out with Bassett in the months after the breakup – and who suffered the wrath of the internet as a result.

Luckily, she’s very funny – and as the initial wave of hate died down, she started winning people over on social media with posts like this.

Here's Taylor Swift's Complete Setlist for the Opening Night of Her Eras Tour

At her first performance of the tour in glendale, arizona, swift performed 44 songs, spanning all 10 of her studio albums., by becca wood | today • published march 19, 2023.

The opening night of Taylor Swift's "Eras Tour" helped answer the question on every Swiftie's mind: What is she going to play at her concerts?

Swift kicked off her long-awaited tour Friday, March 17 in Glendale, Arizona, which Mayor Jerry Weiers  temporarily renamed Swift City  by official proclamation to welcome the singer.

The "Eras Tour" is her first concert series since 2018's Reputation Stadium Tour. In the meantime, Swift has released three new studio albums, “Folklore,” “Evermore” and “Midnights,” and she's rerecorded several of her former tracks.

The singer also never toured her seventh studio album, "Lover," as the Lover Fest concert series, scheduled for the summer of 2020, was  canceled due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

With so much ground to cover, fans speculated how she could fit  all 10 eras  of her discography into one concert. The result? A three-hour long spectacle featuring more than 40 songs, according to  Variety , who also shared  footage from opening night on TikTok .

Here's the full setlist from opening night, according to  Variety .

• “Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince”
• “Cruel Summer”
• “You Need to Calm Down”
• “The Archer”
• “You Belong With Me”
• “Love Story”
• “Tis the Damn Season”
• “Champagne Problems”
• “Tolerate It”
• “…Ready for It?”
• “Don’t Blame Me”
• “Look What You Made Me Do”
• “Enchanted”
• “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”
• “I Knew You Were Trouble”
• “All Too Well (10 Minute Version)”
• “Invisible String”
• “The Last Great American Dynasty”
• “Illicit Affairs”
• “My Tears Ricochet”
• “Blank Space”
• “Shake It Off”
• “Wildest Dreams”
• “Bad Blood”
• “Mirrorball” (acoustic)
• “Tim McGraw” (acoustic)
• “Lavender Haze”
• “Anti-Hero”
• “Midnight Rain”
• “Vigilante S---”
• “Bejeweled”

Across social media, fans were sharing their favorite songs, moments and outfit changes from the show.

How a post falsely claiming migrants are registering to vote spread to millions in four weeks

Scammers bilked older Americans out of $3.4 billion last year, often using cryptocurrency

One user  tweeted  six of her looks from Friday night, writing, "now THAT is how you put on a show, taylor swift you are insane."

Another  wrote , "forever grateful to live in the same lifetime as taylor swift," sharing a photo of her singing in a dark, shimmery dress.

Though Swift will be playing to stadiums and arenas, many fans were left disappointed when they couldn't purchase tickets from Ticketmaster back in November after the general sale was canceled.

The ticketing company previously  said in a statement  that over 3.5 million fans registered for the Verified Fan program at the time — the largest number in the company's history. Ticketmaster also noted that they experienced a “staggering number of bot attacks,” contributing to 3.5 billion total system requests, four times its previous peak.

At the level of demand Ticketmaster saw in the fall, the company said that Swift would need to perform over 900 stadium shows, or do a performance every night for the next two and a half years. Ticketmaster was questioned by the  Senate Judiciary Committee  after the fiasco.

Swift took to  social media  on the day the public sale was set to take place, writing in an Instagram story that she's "extremely protective of my fans."

“It’s really difficult for me to trust an outside entity with these relationships and loyalties, and excruciating for me to just watch mistakes happen with no recourse,” she wrote.

In December, however, some fans got  another chance at tickets  after Ticketmaster worked with "Taylor's team" to provide additional opportunities.

Taylor Swift announces The Eras Tour concert film with trailer

By Katie Louise Smith

Will Taylor Swift change the Eras Tour setlist? Here's the full official Eras Tour setlist and all the changes she's made so far.

Listen to this article

It's safe to say that Taylor Swift 's Eras Tour has well and truly surpassed every single expectation we had. The Eras Tour officially opened its doors in Glendale, Arizona on March 17th where Taylor performed songs from all 10 of her albums.

Taylor has over 200 songs to choose from for The Eras Tour setlist – but what songs made the cut? And what songs got cut?

Here's all the songs in Taylor's Eras Tour setlist, including every song featured in the show, how many songs she plays, every surprise song and whether or not she will change the setlist to include The Tortured Poets Department .

Plus, all the updates to the setlist and what to expect for the international Eras Tour dates.

What songs are on Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour setlist?

How many songs does Taylor Swift play on the Eras Tour setlist?

The average Taylor Swift concert is around 2 hours long but The Eras Tour is a whole different beast... The concert is a whopping 3 hours and 15 minutes long, and Taylor performs a huge 45 tracks within that timeframe.

Not all the tracks are performed in full, though – some are shortened versions. There's also a couple of additional little interludes that pop up throughout the show.

For context, on the Rep tour, Taylor performed 19 tracks in total, including several mashups that featured some of her older songs. For The 1989 World Tour, she performed 18 songs, while 17 songs were performed on The Red Tour and the Speak Now World Tour.

Taylor Swift Eras Tour setlist: What songs does Taylor Swift perform on the Eras Tour?

Taylor now only has two more legs of the Eras Tour to complete: Europe and the second U.S. and Canada leg. International fans heading to the shows in 2024 now have a pretty solid idea of what to expect when she performs later down the line. But big changes could come thanks to ' The Tortured Poets Department '.

The Eras Tour set list features a mix of her highest charting songs, lead singles, fan favourites, outright bangers and tracks that stand out as milestones in her incredible career so far.

On March 31st, during her first show in Arlington, TX, Taylor confirmed that the setlist will have some changes as the tour goes on. Two permanent changes have happened so far, with songs being replaced and added:

• 'invisible string' was cut and replaced with 'the 1' on March 31st.
• 'Long Live' was added on July 7th.

**On July 7th and 8th, Taylor performed 'Long Live' after 'Enchanted'. The song has now officially been added to the full setlist.

***On July 22nd, Taylor replaced 'tis the damn season' so she could perform 'No Body, No Crime' with HAIM. 'Tis the damn season' returned to the main setlist on August 24th in Mexico City.

For all the shows where Phoebe Bridgers appeared as a support act, Taylor performed 'Nothing New' with her during the Red (TV) section.

Ice Spice joined Taylor on stage to perform 'Karma' on May 26th and May 27th in East Rutherford, NJ, in honour of the release of their new version of the song.

As of March 9th 2024, there is still no section on the tour dedicated to her debut album, Taylor Swift .

Taylor has 'reset' the surprise song list, which means anyone attending a show in 2024 can anticipate hearing a song she's already performed. She previously stated that she will only play each surprise song once during the tour, unless she messes one up.

There's also no rules for Taylor repeating songs from Midnights as surprise songs, which means fans may get to hear the likes of 'You're On Your Own Kid' and 'Snow on the Beach' again at some point in the future.

We'll update this article with every Surprise Acoustic Song – and every surprise song that she will play again – after every show.

Will Taylor Swift change the Eras Tour setlist for the international shows?

As of March 9th 2024, the Eras Tour setlist has remained the same as the U.S. leg. However, with the release of The Tortured Poets Department in April, things could change. More on that further down the page.

Fans attending the European shows might end up hearing Taylor perform ' Castles Crumbling ' with Hayley Williams as an additional song during the Speak Now section, as Paramore will be supporting her throughout those tour dates. (Both Phoebe Bridgers and HAIM joined Taylor on stage to perform 'Nothing New' and 'No Body, No Crime' respectively on the nights they were support acts.)

After completing her shows in South America, Australia, Japan and Singapore, Taylor is now set to pick the tour back up in Europe in May 2024 and run through to mid-August, before returning to North America in November 2024.

Will Taylor Swift change the Eras Tour setlist to include The Tortured Poets Department ?

Taylor's brand new album was released on April 19th, just before she embarks on the European leg of the Eras Tour. The full anthology version of the album includes a whopping 31 new songs.

We won't know for sure whether or not the official setlist will change to accommodate those songs until she kicks off the Eras Tour in Paris on May 9th.

It's unclear if she will add a new TTPD section to the tour, but it's looking very likely that Taylor will perform some of those new songs as surprise songs. We'll update this article as soon as we know more!

What are Taylor's most performed songs on tour?

Before she embarked on The Eras Tour, Taylor’s top 3 most performed songs are ‘Love Story’ (491 times), ‘Our Song’ (404 times) and ‘You Belong With Me’ (381 times).

Of course, almost all of Taylor’s most performed songs are from her first two albums. As the list goes on, the Speak Now bops, Red bangers and 1989 hits start to weave their way in.

If you’re wondering what Taylor’s most played songs from her first five albums are, here’s a break down:

• Taylor Swift : ‘Our Song’, ‘Tim McGraw’ and ‘Picture To Burn’
• Fearless: ‘Love Story’, ‘You Belong With Me’ and ‘Fifteen’
• Speak Now : ‘Sparks Fly’, ‘Mean’ and ‘Mine’
• Red : ‘We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together’, ‘I Knew You Were Trouble’ and ‘Red’
• 1989 : ‘Shake It Off’, ‘Blank Space’ and ‘Out of the Woods’

Taylor has only had the chance to perform songs from Reputation on the Reputation Stadium Tour so far, but ‘Ready For It?’, ‘Delicate’ and ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ take the top spots when it comes to live performances of the Rep tracks.

Due to the cancellation of Lover Fest, Taylor hasn’t been able to perform Lover on a tour setting. Folklore, Evermore and Midnights will also be making their tour debut on the Eras Tour.

All the biggest moments from Taylor Swift's Eras Tour shows in Sydney as they happened

By Chantelle Bozicevic, April Glover, Bronte Gossling, Kahla Preston and Karishma Sarkari | 2 months ago

After seven shows, playing to more than 624,500 screaming fans inside the stadiums (and thousands more waiting desperately outside them) and breaking three tour records, it's all over.

The tour we have been talking about for eight months has played its last show Down Under.

Taylor Swift is set to depart Australia for the next leg of the Eras Tour in Singapore, leaving her new favourite haunt, Sydney Zoo , and all of her devastated Aussie fans behind.

On Monday, Swift played to a record Sydney audience of 84,500, gave out her final 22 hat and surprised the audience one last time with a couple of song mashups – featuring some of the most beloved tracks in her back catalogue, making Australia enemy number one in the global Swift fandom in the process – in her acoustic set.

Here, for the last time, are the most memorable moments from Taylor Swifts Eras Tour in Sydney.

The final surprise songs

It's official: the game of trying to predict surprise songs for each Aussie show is done and dusted.

Swift's first surprise song of the night, performed on guitar, was a mashup of Would've, Could've, Should've and ivy.

As these are two fan-favourite tracks, the reaction from Swifties missing out on the show has been... intense.

The second mashup, performed on piano, was Forever and Always with Maroon .

To put it mildly...

'Rack off, mate'

If there are three words we never thought we'd hear during a Taylor Swift concert, it would be these.

Swift and her dancer Kam have executed another tone-perfect lyric tweak during We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together , continuing the tradition of changing "like, ever" to a local saying or reference for each touring destination.

Tonight, Kam declared, "Rack off, mate" in a near-perfect Aussie twang.

Take a bow: we appreciate the commitment to the bit.

Another youngster's dreams come true

For the fourth night in a row, Swift has put a huge smile on a young fan's face by presenting them with her hat during the performance of 22.

This, right here, is pure joy.

Yet another record smashed

Just in case Taylor Swift needed yet another feather to stick in her cap, she's just made history for Accor Stadium.

According to the venue's Twitter account, the American pop icon is the first artist to perform there four nights in a row.

It almost didn't happen; cast your mind back to mid-2023 when the Eras Tour Australian tickets went on sale, there were only three dates locked in for Sydney.

However, after immense demand, Swift delighted fans by adding a fourth show, a win-win situation as it turns out!

Six words screamed from Aussie stadium for the last time

With the last Eras Tour concert comes the last time we'll hear the fan chants associated with the show on Aussie soil... at least until Swift returns for her next tour.

Accor Stadium has just heard its last "1, 2, 3, let's go bitch!", the chant shouted in the opening section of Swift's song Delicate:

Sydney ticketholders have also had the unique privilege of being able to embrace the iconic "Sydney!" chant during Blank Space .

The chant originates from the concert film for Swift's 1989 World Tour, which was filmed in Sydney. During the track, Swift conducted an 'experiment', looping her voice shouting "Sydney!" along with the metallic thump of a cane hitting her microphone stand as she sang the bridge.

She actually did this with the name of every city she visited during the 1989 tour, but because the Sydney show was committed to film, it's the version of the chant that's become world-famous.

While Swift hasn't repeated that little sonic experiment during the Eras Tour, Sydney fans knew exactly what to do when she reached the Blank Space bridge.

It's a rain show, folks

Swift is no stranger to playing in the elements, so a spot of rain will hardly dampen her spirit.

"You guys ready to dance with me in the rain?" she asked.

One fan has captured her joyous reaction to a sprinkle from the skies at Accor Stadium:

Another record smashed

After she played to a record 96,000 people in Melbourne's MCG, Swift declared her Night Four concert in Sydney her biggest in the Harbour City.

"Looking at this crowd, the biggest crowd we've had at our four shows here!" she told the crowd of 84,500.

'Never beating the favourite child accusations'

Swifties around the world are convinced Australia is the singer's "favourite child", all thanks to the way she's shaken up her surprise song tradition while in the country.

Swift not only voided her original declaration that no surprise song would be repeated during the tour, but she also began performing mashups of multiple songs.

It hasn't gone down well outside of Australia, and the two mashups performed on Sunday night have only cemented the "evidence" that we're her favourites.

Swift merged Is it Over Now with I Wish You Would , before performing a melange of Haunted and exile .

"Sydney n3 getting the best surprise songs so far," one tweeted with a gif of a crying woman.

"Haunted x Exile? Are you for real Taylor? Australia is truly the favourite child," another wrote.

Lily's special moment

A school speech about her admiration for Taylor Swift paid off in the most spectacular way for five-year-old Aussie fan, Lily.

In 2023, the youngster won hearts all over the internet when a video of her delivering the speech was shared online.

"People ask me all the time what I want to be when I grow up - a doctor? A teacher? But no, I want to be a singer like Taylor Swift," she began.

Lily shared some fun facts about Swift, including her age, number of cats and most recent albums, before diving into the important stuff.

On Sunday night, Lily was the lucky recipient of her idol's 22 hat, enjoying a special encounter at the end of the stage.

The schoolgirl presented Swift with a friendship bracelet before the pair hugged.

 'Tell him he's dreamin''

Taylor Swift is officially one step closer to receiving an honourary Australian citizenship*, thanks to her latest shoutout to our culture. (*According to us, at least.)

During Saturday night's performance of We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together , the singer updated one lyric with a nod to a defining title in the Aussie movie canon: The Castle .

In the song's bridge, Swift replaced the spoken lyric "like, ever" – spoken by her dancer, Kam – with "tell him he's dreamin'", the line made famous by Michael Caton's character in the 1997 movie, Darryl Kerrigan.

Clearly, Swift does her homework. 

This lyric change occurs in every show, with the singer tweaking it to reflect the country she's performing in at the time, using a local catchphrase or pop culture reference. In her first Aussie show, she went with another classic: "Yeah, nah."

A keyboard malfunction

Swift continued her very new tradition of performing mashups of multiple songs during her 'surprise song' segment – something she began during her Melbourne shows.

However, she faced a little hurdle on Saturday as she sat at the piano for her second mashup of the night. Touching her fingers to the keys, a synthesiser sound rang out.

"What? You hear that?" she asked, audibly baffled as she continued to hit the key.

"My damn keyboard is playing a synth sound. I wonder if it'll work though, I don't think it will…"

Fortunately, a stagehand was able to quickly switch the keyboard back into piano mode, and Swift proceeded with her performance of New Year's Day and peace .

Scarlett's wish come true 

There has been a really sweet interaction between Swift and nine-year-old fan Scarlett, who has been diagnosed with a rare brain tumour and given only months to live.

Scarlett's parents started a social media campaign to get their daughter the 22 hat and after fans shared and re-posted their pleas, it seems like Swift and her team heard the call.

The Perth girl was taken to the stage, where the singer hugged her and kissed her hand after a short chat.

Watch the video above.

While it wasn't the record crowds that the MCG had, there's one thing Sydney had that Melbourne didn't - her boyfriend, NFL star Travis Kelce.

The Kansas City Chiefs player, who touched down in Australia on Thursday, was proudly watching Swift perform from the VIP section while wearing a whole host of friendship bracelets on his wrists.

Here's how the night unfolded and all the big moments from Swift's first Sydney show:

Swift's special surprise for fans who missed out

While more than 80,000 fans were successful in securing tickets for Friday's show, thousands more missed out – but Swift certainly didn't forget about them.

During the concert, at around 10.40pm AEDT, she went live on Instagram so supporters at home could watch as she revealed an alternate cover for her upcoming album The Tortured Poets Department before inviting Sabrina Carpenter to the stage.

One 9honey team member was among those watching along at home, describing the moment Swift's Instagram Live appeared in her feed as "so exciting".

Reliving the highlights

New pics from tonight's show at Sydney's Accor Stadium have dropped, which means a chance to relive parts of the night - specifically, the Folklore, Speak Now and Reputation Eras.

That's a wrap

Swift ended the show in her Midnights Era, which is her latest album.

The singer started off in a purple sparkly number with a fluffy coat as she sang Lavender Haze.

The minidress very soon made way for a blue beaded bodysuit as the pop star performed songs Anti-Hero , Midnight Rain , Vigilante Shit , Bejeweled and Mastermind.

The confetti went off on the final track Karma around 11.15pm - after the singer had been performing for three and a half hours.

The last song also featured a subtle little tribute to beau Kelce, with Swift singing: "Karma is the guy on the Chiefs."

The switched up lyric, which is not a first, is a nod to the NFL Super Bowl-winning team the Kansas City Chiefs.

Another alternate album cover revealed

Taylor used the acoustic portion of the evening to announce another (third!) album cover for the upcoming The Tortured Poets Department.

This edition of the vinyl features a new bonus track called The Albatross and fans are already looking into the possible meaning of the track name, noting the meaning of albatross goes beyond birds.

Alternate meanings fans found include: "something that causes persistent concern or anxiety" and "something that greatly hinders accomplishment".

Swift brings Sabrina Carpenter on stage

After Sabrina Carpenter gave up her warm-up act due to the weather delays, Swift brought her out on stage during the acoustic set.

Swift labelled it "a crime" that the crowd had missed out on Carpenter's set, delighting fans with a performance together instead.

"My incredibly talented, wonderful, gorgeous, hilarious, genius opening act Sabrina Carpenter," Swift said, welcoming the singer on stage.

"She heroically sacrificed her show which I think is a crime against Sydney and I think it needs to be fixed!"

Swift explained the song White Horse, from the album Fearless , is one that was important to Carpenter as a kid, so that's why they chose it to sing tonight.

Sitting at the piano together, eager fans noticed the performance was actually a medley with Coney Island . 

Fans are already flooding social media with a clip of Sabrina as a kid covering the track, reminding people to dream big.

The duo appear close with the singers spotted out to dinner together in Paddington earlier in the week .

'This is my favourite part of the night'

Taylor Swift wore her pink dress as she played her guitar for the "acoustic set", as she calls it.

"This is my favourite part of the night, the acoustic set," Swift said.

Fans have labelled this portion of the evening the "surprise song" section because the singer performs two tracks that are not on the usual set list and fans have turned it into a guessing game online ahead of each show.

Tonight's two song set kicked off with How You Get The Girl from the album 1989.

"Do you know how loud you're singing? It's so loud," Swift told the crowd during her first song.

Swift also took a moment to acknowledge the fans getting behind the chant during Blank Space on such an epic level moments earlier, during the 1989 Era.

"I was hoping you would and you did. That was so cool!"

So cool in fact, Swift sang a line from the song again for the crowd to chant one more time.

Why everyone's suddenly looking at Katy Perry

Swift has kicked off her 1989 Era in a beaded pink two-piece ensemble.

This set features sooo many hits from the album, originally released in 2014 - when the song Bad Blood was reportedly written about a feud with singer Katy Perry.

Flash forward 10 years and the duo have patched up their friendship, with Perry in the crowd tonight.

So everyone's looking to the audience for the I Kissed A Girl singer's reaction (after everyone dances to Shake It Off and Wildest Dreams first).

New pics in

New pics have dropped from earlier in the show - featuring Tay Tay in her Lover Era at the start of the show and then during her Evermore Era.

The Folklore cabin

Swift came out on stage for her Folklore Era in a white flowing dress.

She started the seven-song set by explaining to the crowd the origin of the Folklore cabin, which came about when she started writing the album two days into the pandemic (you know that 2020 thing!?!) because she wanted to create imaginary worlds.

The singer started with The 1 before performing crowd pleasers, such as the single Cardigan as well as Betty , Last Great American Dynasty and August.

Sick fan gets moment with star

Swift is in her Red Era on stage, which means a hat giveaway to one lucky fan, who this show was nine-year-old Scarlett from Perth who has been diagnosed with cancer.

It seems the singer and her team paid attention to Scarlett's stepmum's plea on social media, with the youngster selected from among the 81,000 fans to get the special souvenir - and people on social media were thrilled.

The singer, wearing the "a lot going on a the moment" T-shirt again, kicked off the set with 22 before handing over the part of her costume.

Then she launched into hit after hit, including We Are Never Getting Back Together (another big singalong moment), followed by I Knew You Were Trouble and All Too Well (10 Minute Version) .

Switching things up

After wearing her purple enchanted dress for the Speak Now Era for her Melbourne shows, Swift has opted to switch things up, wearing a blue ballgown for Sydney instead.

Both are couture dresses made by Nicole + Felicia, who produced three in total for the singer.

This blue gown was debuted at Swift's Los Angeles concert in August.

The singer performed the songs Enchanted and Long Live.

All eyes on Travis

Plenty of fans have been paying as much attention to Travis Kelce as they have been to Taylor Swift, with clips of the proud boyfriend popping up across social media.

The NFL star was dressed in blue shorts and and T-shirt, with his wrists full of friendship bracelets.

He arrived at the stadium with the singer's dad, Scott Swift (wearing black), and his friend Ross (in yellow).

A fan of the Aussie accent

Swift has revealed she's a fan of the Aussie accent, telling the crowd: "You pronounce my name cuter than anyone else in the world!"

The singer's now moved into her Reputation Era, starting with Ready For It? , then Delicate, Don't Blame Me , Look What You Made Me Do. 

'I wanted us to not lose touch'

Sitting behind her moss-covered piano during the set for her Evermore Era, Swift acknowledges it's been a while since she last played for a Sydney audience.

"Sydney is such a special place in my heart, so many special memories here," Swift started.

Explaining that "things got in the way" not long after her 2018 Reputation Tour (ahem, pandemic), the singer explained she tried to keep her fans entertained in other ways.

"I wanted us to not lose touch, so I put out as many albums as humanly possible," Swift said before listing off the albums that came after, including Lover , Folklore , Evermore and Midnights .

She used the opportunity to plug her upcoming album The Tortured Poets Department before launching into the song Champagne Problems .

Accor Stadium lights up

Doesn't it look pretty!?

Celebrity audience members

It's not just Travis Kelce that fans have spotted in the VIP section at Accor Stadium.

Rita Ora and Taika Waititi have been seen watching the show and also Katy Perry - who was captured on camera swapping friendship bracelets with a random member of the audience.

Perry is in Sydney to play a private gig on Saturday night.

Singalongs in full swing

Swift briefly addressed the weather delays, telling the audience: "We had a little bit of a weather situation, a little bit of rain, but I have never known an Aussie crowd that let anything get in the way!" 

The 34-year-old then moved into her Fearless Ear, which includes some of Swift's biggest hits, such as You Belong With Me and Love Story - and the Sydney crowd is going off by singing along very loudly.

Not quite the record-breaking crowds

After playing the biggest concert of her career last Friday night at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, with 96,000 people in the audience, the first Sydney show at Accor Stadium has 15,000 fewer people.

But Swift it still loving the crowd energy, telling them: "You're really making me feel like tonight I get to play a sold-out show for 81,000 people in Sydney!"

Taylor is on stage

Swift has made her way out on stage - again popping up 10 minutes ahead of the 8pm start time.

She's hit the stage again in her Lover Era, starting with Miss Americana & the Heartbreak Prince, which moves into Cruel Summer . 

Travis spotted in the crowd

Travis Kelce has been spotted in the crowd wearing blue, watching his girlfriend alongside his mate Ross, who is dressed in yellow.

Sabrina skipped

The weather delays meant organisers have decided to skip Sabrina Carpenter's support act with keen fans noticing her band and equipment weren't out on stage when they finally were able to get inside the stadium.

Instead, to keep things tracking on-time, the line up has jumped straight to headliner, Swift, so that she doesn't have to cut any of her set list (which, let's face it, is the real reason everyone's there).

Weather delay

All day, ticketholders have waited anxiously to see if warnings of serious storms would come to fruition.

It appears the concerns have been founded, with the show's start time delayed due to weather.

A sign on display at Accor Stadium instructed attendees to "stay undercover until further notice".

However, there's a promising sign, with a rainbow above the stadium!

Sydney trains getting into the Swiftie spirit

Not even Sydney's public transport network can resist the lure of Swiftmania.

Fans are getting a kick out of boarding the "Tay Tay Express" as they make their way to Accor Stadium for the show.

Trains are playing Swift songs, and displaying some of her hit titles in place of usual Sydney train station names. 

Sydney's Central Station has also been decked out in celebration, with balloon arches and poster walls for fans to pose with.

Divide among Swifties after ticketing chaos

A plethora of fans have been bonding outside Accor Stadium as they line up for merchandise, but at 4.30pm, only some of them will be able to go through the gates.

For those forced to remain outside the stadium while they can hear all the excitement within, it's a bitter reminder of the ticketing chaos that's been intermittent since June.

Although there was a shortfall of millions when it came to ticketing supply, some lucky Swifties got tickets for multiple shows – which for others leaves a bitter taste in their mouths.

"I mean, each to their own, but there's so many people that wanted to come and couldn't," Jessie and Nick, who are going to the show tonight, told 9honey Celebrity's reporter on the ground Chantelle Bozicevic.

"I definitely think it's unfair. Like, there's people that have gone to every Melbourne and every Sydney show and there's so many people that missed out completely. It's a bit greedy. But, like, good for them."

Nick called those with multiple tickets "the bad guys of The Eras Tour".

But Central Coast mother and daughter Sally and Charlotte, who failed to get any tickets, disagree with Jessie and Nick – they're just happy for anyone who gets to go.

'Hidden' merchandise tent with no lines revealed

Lines for the chance to buy Swift's merchandise from the three tents at the front of Accor Stadium have been absolutely packed, with some fans claiming it took them four hours to get to the front.

Swift fan Holly from Sydney told 9honey Celebrity's reporter on the ground, Chantelle Bozicevic, that she had been waiting since 7am, and finally made her purchase at 12.30pm.

According to Bozicevic, however, there's a fourth merchandise tent "hidden around the back" of the stadium with "barely any line".

That tent opens at 3pm, Bozicevic says security told her. But as of 2.30pm, the front three tents' lines had quietened right down.

Red Frogs have been handing out sunscreen and water to those waiting in line in the heat.

SES urges concertgoers to make safe and sensible decisions in severe weather

NSW State Emergency Service (SES) has urged those going to Sydney Olympic Park tonight to make safe and sensible decisions in the forecasted severe weather.

"We may see some very poor weather this afternoon and evening across parts of Sydney, Blue Mountains, Central Coast, Illawarra, parts of the South Coast and eastern parts of the Southern Tablelands," Chief Superintendent Burnes said.

"The weather expected may make things like travelling hazardous, with high end heavy rain and flash flooding a possibility.

"We are working very closely with the Bureau of Meteorology to monitor the situation and will provide further warnings and updates to the community as required."

NSW SES has increased its rostered staff, incident management personnel and volunteers ahead of Swift and Blink-182's concerts tonight.

"The NSW SES is well prepared to provide assistance and respond to any damage these storms cause. We're preparing for an increase in incidents due to the expected heavy rainfall," he said.

He recommended installing the Hazards Near Me app, visit bom.gov.au or ses.nsw.gov.au for the latest weather advice, call NSW SES on 13 25 00 for emergency help in floods and storms, and in life threatening situations, call 000 immediately.

2GB prize phone line melts down during giveaway

Radio host Ben Fordham put out the call to listeners to give the prize line a ring this morning for a chance to win tickets, but the sheer volume of callers caused a meltdown for their phone line .

"The prize line has died, the prize line is no longer working," the Fordham said.

Ben Fordham Live! Content Director Luke Davis said the sheer volume of calls was "absolutely extraordinary".

"We've never seen anything like it," Davis told Fordham.

More tickets will be available throughout the day, fans just need to tune in 2GB radio and call in when they are prompted.

What time does Taylor Swift's Sydney concert start?

Before she stepped onto the MCG's stage last Friday, it was widely believed that Taylor Swift would start her set at 8pm.

She actually started her show at 7.30pm, which caught a slew of fans unaware while they were lining up for the bathroom, forcing them to rush through the stadium in a panic to get to their seats in time.

Accor Stadium's gates open at 4.30pm – there have actually been fans lining up outside the stadium to buy merch since this morning – and Sabrina Carpenter, Swift's opening act, is expected to start her portion of the show at 6.20pm.

COMPETITION: Win a $15,000 cruise holiday to see the Northern Lights

Set times are, however, subject to change without notice, so it's advised by Frontier Touring to get to the stadium early.

With a severe weather warning having been issued as well, this could see Swift's start time delayed or changed for safety issues – the stage, like it was for 10 minutes before her first Nashville show, might need to be squeegeed, after all.

Keep an eye on Frontier Touring and Accor Stadium's websites and social media pages for updates, though we'd like to emphasise once again that they have said set times could change without notice.

As it stands, Accor Stadium's website currently reads: "The show will play rain or shine. The only exception would be severe weather which could impact the safety of artists and patrons."

A taste of what to expect tonight

One TikTok user shared footage from a sound check conducted at Accor Stadium on Thursday night, and it's safe to say that the concert tonight will be loud.

Here's what you need to know about preventing hearing damage at the concert .

Swifties, prepare for Uber chaos

Rideshare app Uber has issued a warning for Swifties wanting to order an Uber to Accor Stadium before and after Taylor's Sydney shows.

Almost 15,000 Uber trips were facilitated to and from the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) over the weekend, and the company expects Sydney to be even bigger.

Dom Taylor, Uber spokesperson, said in a statement: "With almost 5000 rides per show in Melbourne, Uber driver-partners have helped hundreds of thousands of fans 'Get Ready For It' and experience the Taylor Swift phenomenon.

"We're expecting that number to double as Taylor takes the stage in Sydney later this week."

Around 300,000 Swifties are expected to descend upon Accor Stadium for the four nights between February 23 to 26.

Last-minute ticket grab for desperate Sydney fans

A little over 24 hours before Taylor Swift takes the stage in Sydney, Frontier Touring announced it was selling last-minute tickets to all four of her remaining shows Down Under.

Fans were quick to flood the comment section with messages about quick-fire sale, with some urging Sydney Swifties to try their luck.

"Good luck Sydney peeps. 16:00 this day a week ago I got 2x tickets for one of the #MelbourneTSTheErasTour Total cost was $140 and our kids got lifelong memories. Got to be in it to win it! Go for it!," one wrote.

"You better let me in today!!!" another joked.

Frontier has also confirmed physical tickets were available for this drop. An hour later, though, the ticket sale was exhausted.

However, Frontier gave us all another small ray of hope by revealing extra ticket drops may occur throughout the rest of the shows for Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

"Please note, as mentioned in the post, late production releases may occur across show days. The best place to check this is the Ticketek website," Frontier said in a statement on X.

Remember the stadium rules

About 400,000 people are expected to flock to Sydney Olympic Park from Friday until Monday, with Blink 182 also performing. And there are some important rules we need to follow.

Bags need to be the size of an A4 sheet of paper, you can't bring in video cameras or equipment and phone chargers can't be bigger than the phone itself.

No outside food or beverages will be allowed inside the venue. However you will be permitted to bring an empty, soft plastic water bottle no bigger than 600ml.

You can find a full list of all the rules here.

Weather warning for Friday's show

Swift fans heading to Accor Stadium for the first Sydney Eras Tour concert have been issued a weather warning.

Severe thunderstorms and rain are set to hit during Swift's three-hour show. "Severe thunderstorms are likely across eastern #NSW on Friday with damaging winds, large hail and heavy rainfall," BoM said on X (formerly Twitter).

Although a rainy performance might not be ideal, Swift has previously revealed she enjoys a rain-soaked show and rarely ever cancels, especially over a bit of wet weather .

Plus, it gives you a great excuse to whip out your bedazzled poncho for the evening.

Here's how to bejewel your poncho.

Taylor and Travis' romantic zoo date

Taylor Swift is such a fan of Aussie animals that she made a surprise visit to Sydney zoo in the city's west – not once, but twice.

The Lavender Haze singer was photographed enjoying the zoo and cuddling up to a koala on Wednesday, and she returned to Sydney Zoo on Thursday with her NFL star beau Travis Kelce in tow.

The couple walked hand-in-hand around the site during a private after-hours tour, where they met the koalas and fed kangaroos.

Taylor Swift gives massive Eras Tour setlist hint as she releases new Youtube teaser

Taylor Swift is preparing for the next leg of the Eras Tour, and it includes a few new songs.

The pop icon released her 11th studio album, The Tortured Poets Department , last week, and fans have had mixed reactions .

While fans are making their way through the 17-song album (along with its 15 additional tracks), Taylor is rehearsing for the European stops on her tour.

The 34-year-old posted a montage on Youtube Shorts of her rehearsing for her show in Paris, which starts on May 9. In the caption, she said: "A fortnight til Paris/ Brought to you by Youtube Shorts #ForAFortnightChallenge."

She's seen in the clips singing and dancing around a makeshift stage. During one section, she's leaning against a sign that has the initials TTPD.

Fans have turned to X to speculate which songs will be added to the show. One user thinks they've cracked the code, as Apple Music has added certain songs to the Taylor Swift Essentials playlist.

The songs that have been added are: My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys, Down Bad, I Can Do It With A Broken Heart, But Daddy I Love Him and Fortnight.

While they are eager to learn if they're correct, some are curious about where in the show the new album will be played.

The Eras Tour is already about three hours and 15 minutes.

Fans assume one era will need to be cut to make way for the new one.

"Could remove some songs on Folklore and/or Midnights being the longest sets on the Tour," one person said.

Another said: "What if she gets rid of the surprise songs and does TTPF instead that makes more sense to me then just adding a whole new era and taking away others songs from the other Eras."

Taylor Swift Profile

Taylor Swift is one of the biggest pop superstars in the world. She is known for her albums Red, 1989, and Reputation, each spawning multiple hits and selling millions of copies.

Reputation is one of her most popular albums of all time, released on November 10, 2017, and it sold over 1 million copies in the first week despite not being available on any online streaming services. It contained the singles “Look What You Made Me Do”, “..Ready For It”, “Endgame”, “New Year’s Day” and “Delicate”.

Taylor Swift has always been able to capture headlines with her catchy pop music, mostly centered around her relationships and breakups with many high profile celebrities over the years.

Taylor Swift’s latest 7th album was titled “Lover” and it contained the singles “Me!”, “You Need to Calm Down”, and “Lover”. It has a more upbeat and positive vibe compared to Swift’s last album, which many have attributed to her relationship with Joe Alwyn.

Taylor had huge plans to tour for the Lover album in 2020 before the pandemic broke out. That caused her to cancel her plans and instead release two studio albums: Folklore and Evermore. In addition, she started re-releasing music from her catalogue which she did not own the right to anymore.

Taylor Swift’s 10th album is called Midnights.

Will Taylor Swift’s ‘Eras Tour’ Setlist Change After ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ Release?

Taylor Swift ’s The Tortured Poets Department has already captivated the world , leaving her fans to wonder whether any of the new songs will pop up on her Eras Tour setlist.

Swift, 34, kicked off her three-hour concert series in March 2023 in Arizona, soon traversing the United States, Central and South America, Asia and Australia. The shows highlight most of her past albums: Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, Reputation, Folklore, Evermore and Midnights . There also is a section dedicated to “surprise songs,” where Swift adds two new acoustic renditions (most recently, mash-ups) to the show.

Swift has been on hiatus since early March, weeks before The Tortured Poets Department dropped on Friday, April 19. The record, her 11th studio album, features 31 songs including “Fortnight,” “So Long, London,” “Fresh Out the Slammer,” “So High School” and “thanK you aIMee.”

Swift’s fans planning to see Eras later this year — the tour leg kicks off in Paris on Thursday, May 9 — have since taken to social media, curious if they will be able to hear any TTPD live.

“OK listen I NEED Taylor to add ‘I Can Do It With a Broken Heart’ to the Eras Tour setlist. … Just that ONE. … PLEASE. … It was MADE for the Eras Tour !!!!!!!!!!” a social media user wrote via X.

Another added, “I am so obsessed with Taylor’s new album idk how to survive the Eras Tour (if I actually go twice I might just drop dead afterwards).”

Since Eras has sections dedicated to Swift’s previous albums , it is possible that TTPD could get its own mini-set in the lineup. Not all of her preexisting cohorts feature the same amount of songs, so Swift could cut some songs in order to add a time for Tortured Poets additions .

Spotify added further fuel to the fire on Friday as Swifties noticed the streaming platform’s official video for “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” a TTPD track, features footage solely from the Eras Tour.

Swift’s musical director David Cook , who has also been featured on several of her past LPs, also hinted that TTPD songs could make an appearance on the tour lineup.

“Not sure how much I can add to the discourse other than this album is really REALLY good. You FEEL it,” Cook wrote via Instagram on Friday, quoting “Loml” with a mind-blown emoji.

According to eagle-eyed Swifties that captured screenshots, Cook also wrote, “Wait until you hear the live versions.” The addition, however, has since been deleted.

Of course, it is also possible that Swift will drop a TTPD single in her surprise song section.

“How will The Tortured Poets Department affect the Eras Tour ? Hopefully only on surprise songs (in a good way),” an X user theorized.

While Swift has yet to address if TTPD will affect her Eras Tour setlist, she’s given fans insight into how she picks song s for the acoustic section.

“This has become my favorite part of the show because it’s become very chaotic and it’s become a challenge for me to think of new things to do for every single city,” Swift told the crowd in Singapore in March. “And hope that I’m doing something that you guys might like. It’s been a blast!”

Per the Grammy winner, she “invented [her] crazy acoustic section,” to be able to play “as many songs” as she could way over the 44 staples at each show. Adding TTPD tracks there seems like an easy way to do just that, if you ask Us.

The Tortured Poets Department is out now and Swift’s Eras Tour resumes on Thursday, May 9.

The Eras Tour countdown is on. Fans are eagerly anticipating  Taylor Swift 's return to the stage next month when she brings her epic three-hour-plus live show to Paris, France, performing live for the first time since dropping The Tortured Poets Department  last week.

On Thursday, Swift released a collection of new behind-the-scenes videos from what appears to be recent tour rehearsals. The black-and-white clips are set to her current single, " Fortnight " featuring  Post Malone , as part of her ongoing #ForAFortnightChallenge on YouTube Shorts. 

"A fortnight 'til Paris," she captioned the post. The term "Fortnight" refers to a period of two weeks, and her first of four Eras shows at Paris La Défense Arena is set to begin on Thursday, May 9. 

Swifties wasted no time dissecting the images, taking note of what appears to be new props that could indicate the addition of TTPD songs to her already extensive setlist. 

In one shot, Swift appears to stand before a sign that looks quite similar to her TTPD logo. In another, her background dancers all wear top hats that have not been included in previous performances. 

It's not clear whether Swift would simply add new material to her existing setlist, or cut some of her older songs. It's worth noting that when she released her concert film,  Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour , in October, she nixed multiple songs from the theatrical version, including "The Archer," "Long Live," "Cardigan" and "Wildest Dreams." 

Swift's upcoming Eras Tour international dates will bring her across Europe and the U.K. before she returns home to North America in the fall. For her summer dates overseas, she'll be joined by longtime friend Hayley Williams ' band Paramore . The musicians recently collaborated on Swift's "From the Vault" track, "Castles Crumbling," on  Speak Now (Taylor's Version) .

Swift's 11th studio album was released on Friday, April 19, to much fanfare. 

In terms of traditional album sales,  Billboard  reports that Swift's  TTPD  sold 1.4 million copies --  including CD, vinyl, cassette and digital download versions -- in its first day alone. This surpasses her own biggest sales week, when  1989 (Taylor's Version)  sold 1.359 million copies. All signs indicate that  TTPD  will be making a massive, record-shattering debut  when tracking for its first week is reported.

The 31-track collection --  which turned out to be a surprise double album  -- features a hefty helping of  heartbreak songs  following her splits from  Joe Alwyn  and  Matty Healy , as well as a few  sweet love songs  amid her current relationship with  Travis Kelce . 

"She has put her heart and soul into the music, just like with everything she does," a source told ET about the album, "and can't wait for her fans to listen to it and to share it with them."

As far as Kelce is concerned, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end  recently confirmed to ET he'll be there with bells on  for Swift's upcoming performances. 

"There won't be a bad show, I promise you that," he said. "You know I gotta go support." 

Kelce is also set to host his second annual  Kelce Jam  on May 18 in Kansas City.

Will Taylor Swift Add ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ To The Eras Tour? Here’s What We Know.

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

Fans think Taylor Swift is dropping hints that she might be expanding her already 10-album-spanning “Eras Tour” setlist to include her latest release, “The Tortured Poets Department,” ahead of the tour’s upcoming European leg in May.

Swift teased fans in a YouTube Short video Thursday night that it’s only a “fortnight until Paris”—a nod to both her return to the Eras Tour in Paris on May 9, and “Fortnight,” the lead single from “The Tortured Poets Department” featuring Post Malone.

In typical Swiftie fashion , fans quickly began decoding the video for possible clues about Swift’s upcoming shows, and some have pointed to what looks like a “TTPD” logo attached to a railing Swift leans on while singing, taking this as a hint that her new album could have its own “era” on tour.

Other Swifties noted the billionaire pop star can be seen wearing shoes strikingly similar to those she wears in the “Fortnight” music video, while some pointed out the hats and canes her backup dancers are using have not yet been seen at Eras Tour shows, a possible hint at new songs and choreography.

Swift fan accounts shared screenshots of an Instagram post from musical director David Cook who appeared to tease live performances of “The Tortured Poets Department” songs, though it has since been removed from his caption .

Swift’s collaborator on new song “Florida!!!,” Florence Welch, hinted at possibly joining Swift for an Eras Tour performance to British Vogue , stating: “If I was gonna do it, it would be a surprise.”

What We Don’t Know

What alterations Swift might make to the Eras Tour setlist to fit in “The Tortured Poets Department.” The tour has been noted for its length: Swift performs 45 songs over the course of more than three hours, leading fans to speculate whether she may need to make cuts to fit in her latest release. The Eras Tour has been billed as a celebration of Swift’s entire musical catalogue and each album, or “era,” has its own dedicated part of the setlist, with each ranging from one to seven songs. “Midnights,” her latest album release prior to “The Tortured Poets Department,” has closed out the setlist since the start of the tour and has had the longest setlist of any era.

Surprising Fact

The Eras Tour is already the highest-grossing tour of all time, but it’s only a little more than halfway over. Swift has performed 83 shows to date, but she still has 69 left, most of which are in Europe. She’ll be joined by Paramore as her European leg opening act, while Gracie Abrams will join her for her final North American leg . Swift will return to the United States, but only for three cities: She’ll perform in Miami for three shows in October, followed by an additional three shows each in New Orleans and Indianapolis. She will wrap up the North American leg, and the tour as a whole, with six shows in Toronto in November and three shows in Vancouver in December.

$1.04 billion. That’s how much the Eras Tour grossed across 60 shows between March 17 and Nov. 11, 2023, according to Pollstar estimates , making it the highest-grossing tour of all time.

“The Tortured Poets Department” dropped April 19 to record-shattering sales and streaming numbers. The 16-track album, and its 15-track counterpart subtitled “The Anthology” surprise-released last Friday, has already been streamed more than 1 billion times on Spotify as of Wednesday. That makes it the most-streamed album in one week in the streaming platform’s history. It previously earned the biggest single-day Spotify streams for an album with more than 300 million streams, shattering her own record with “ Midnights ” by more than 100 million. The album has sold more than 700,000 vinyl copies as of Tuesday, shattering her own record for the biggest vinyl sales week. Swift is on track to nab her biggest debut for an album on the Billboard charts yet: Billboard reported the album earned a massive 2.5 million album equivalent units in its first six days, consisting of 1.85 million in sales and the rest via streaming.

Will Taylor Swift add 'Tortured Poets' to international Eras Tour? Our picks.

A double album. Thirty one songs. Two hours and two minutes. In the spaces between the international, record- breaking Eras Tour, Taylor Swift released her 11th era: "The Tortured Poets Department." But will the behemoth tour make room for the newest addition to Swift's vast catalog and how?

"The Tortured Poets Department" showcases the singer's mastery to connect words like puzzle pieces seamlessly depicting the human experience and complex themes of false wedding promises, relationship imprisonment, break-ups and drug escapism, religion versus rebellion, childhood retrospection and the duality of internally suffering while externally performing. It would be a surprise for her not to push this body of art into the spotlight.

But how it fits into the 44-song three hour and 15-minute Eras tour is anyone's guess. And we won't find out until she resumes the tour on May 9 in Paris. I'll be there.

Read Melissa Ruggieri's review Taylor Swift's 'Tortured Poets' is hauntingly brilliant, even the 15 surprise songs

Whether or not she's incorporating the era has already been decided. Swift is 13 steps ahead . She plans her moves years in advance. There is a two-month break from the tour and she has been spending time in Los Angeles. Her team of dancers have not been as active on social media possibly because they're rehearsing a new set. Or maybe it's a coincidence?

The simplest path would be to absorb some of the the 31 songs into the acoustic set that comes after "Bad Blood" during the "1989" era. Swift has used the 2024 surprise songs to play mash-ups on the guitar and the piano. It's when she makes announcements and it's a custom gift to concertgoers and fans watch in envy on livestreams from around the world.

'Tortured Poets' release live updates What to know as Taylor Swift's new album debuts

More likely, she will add a "Tortured Poets" set. The show is segmented, allowing a new era to squeeze in. She could open the show with the new era, although "Miss Americana and the Heartbreak Prince's" opening line is a perfect opening for an artist who has released seven albums and hasn't seen fans: "It's been a long time coming." She could end the show with the set, but "Karma" is a good show closer.

Cue the confetti. If she ends the tour with "Tortured Poets," I'm guessing "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart" is the closer.

The writing shines bright like Swift's glittering sequin stars which is reminiscent of and relative to "Folklore" and "Evermore." For the flow of the concert, it makes more sense to not place "Tortured Poets" next to these albums. The show flows with a narrative that spans almost two decades with highs and lows of energy. Two areas that could be good: after "Reputation" and before "Speak Now" or after the secret songs and before "Midnights." Maybe she dives into the stage to swim to the an asylum of typewriters and tormented thoughts.

The four eras with the most amount of songs are the latest records she owned that aren't re-records: "Lover" (six songs), "Folklore" (seven songs), "Evermore" (five songs) and "Midnights" (seven songs). Will she follow that flow? Will she cut songs from these eras?

I could see her performing the lead single "Fortnight," title track "The Tortured Poets Department," Eras Tour song "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart," "Down Bad," "Who's Afraid of Little Old Me," "thanK you aIMee" and "So High School."

Swift holds the answer key. Sixty-nine shows are left on the recording shattering magnum opus for 2024.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce will reportedly join Patrick and Brittany Mahomes at F1 Miami Grand Prix this weekend

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are reportedly headed to “Florida!!!”

The couple plans to join BFFs Patrick and Brittany Mahomes at the 2024 Miami Grand Prix this weekend, according to the US Sun.

Kelce and Patrick are investors in the Alpine F1 team and have reportedly been looking forward to the star-studded event “for a while.”

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is reportedly excited to share his love of Formula 1 with the “Cruel Summer” singer, who has loved learning more about sports amid their romance.

“Travis sees that Taylor is falling in love with sports, and he is excited to take her there, as she also wants to know more and more about his passions,” the source told the outlet.

It’s just an added benefit that Swift also gets to “spend time with Brittany and Patrick” before embarking on the European leg of her international Eras Tour less than a week later.

“Before going to Europe, they see this as the last opportunity before the Eras Euro part madness starts, and they are looking forward to seeing the race, and see how the backstage, the paddock, and the whole F1 experience is,” added the insider.

This weekend is a big deal for Kelce as he will likely miss most of the remaining F1 season between joining Swift on tour and the NFL pre-season starting soon.

“Travis can’t attend that many Grand Prix so he is very excited about it, and he wants to make the most of it, and spend time with his best friend Patrick and Taylor.”

It’s unclear if the group is only going to the actual race or if they’ll attend some of the glitzy parties. Other celebrities confirmed to attend include 50 Cent, A$AP Rocky, DJ Khaled, Camila Cabello, Marc Anthony, Ed Sheeran and more.

After their weekend in Magic City, Swift is expected to fly back to New York to attend the Met Gala on Monday.

An insider told Page Six earlier this week that the “Anti-Hero” singer would be walking the red carpet on fashion’s biggest night. However, there is no word yet on whether Kelce will accompany her.

It’s also unknown if the Mahomes will be attending the swanky event after making their debut last year.

Although this might be the last time the couples get together for a while, they saw each other as recently as last weekend.

Swift and Kelce, both 34, joined the Mahomes, both 28, in Las Vegas on Friday night ahead of the quarterback’s weekend-long charity event.

The foursome reportedly hit up Easy’s Cocktail Lounge   inside the Aria Resort & Casino for a night of drinking and fun ahead of the big auction.

The following night, Kelce and Swift turned heads when they arrived at the 15 and Mahomies Foundation gala hand-in-hand.

The lovebirds couldn’t keep their hands off each other during the auction, with Kelce constantly kissing Swift and even grabbing her backside at one point.

While it’s unclear if the couple bid on anything, Swift decided at the last minute to auction off four tickets to any of her remaining U.S. Eras Tour stops — which sold for a whopping $80,000.

Taylor Swift : The Eras Tour AMC Entertainment

After Covid shut down AMC and the rest of the globe’s multiplexes and the actors strike ratcheted down the box office, you could say that the No. 1 exhibitor was taking its fate into its own hands with Taylor Swift: The Era’s Tour . However, it has Scott Swift, Taylor Swift’s father, to thank. He reportedly made the call to AMC CEO Adam Aron to sidestep studios and gain more cash in taking his daughter’s movie from her $1 billion-plus-selling, sold-out concert tour directly to AMC. Why have a studio walk away with a ton of cash and spend tens of millions in marketing when Swift with a then-near-400 million social media followers is the best form of advertisement? She tweeted a few times to promote the movie, and showed up at her boyfriend Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs games to drum up her $15M Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour concert film as a must-see. The movie also received a SAG-AFTRA waiver, which allowed the pop star to show up at her own Los Angeles world premiere and do publicity. The result: $100M in global advance ticket sales. AMC, to avoid antitrust issues, hired Gotham-based distributor Variance Films to book cinemas across the nation, and Trafalgar to handle the overseas release. Much to the chagrin of the studios, who had their thing to say about Aron’s entry into the distribution business, they all started moving their movies away (i.e., Universal’s The Exorcist reboot, Lionsgate’s Ordinary Angels ) from Eras Tour and its arrival on the calendar October 13. Swift cleverly tailored her marketing to fans, releasing the movie on a date that reps her lucky number, with tickets priced at $13.13 for children and seniors. Initially she wasn’t going to preview the movie, looking to open hard on 10/13. At the last minute, during the week of release, Swift changed her mind and opted for last-minute Thursday previews (they only yielded $2.8M).
