Taylor Swift Scolds Concertgoers for Throwing Things on Stage in Buenos Aires: ‘It Really Freaks Me Out’
Written by djfrosty on November 12, 2023
Taylor Swift is reminding fans to not throw things onto the stage at her shows.
At least one object made its way toward Swift in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Sunday night (Nov. 12) while she was performing at Estadio River Plate for the Eras Tour concert that had been postponed due to “chaotic” weather on Friday.
Sitting at her piano during the Evermore set, the pop star — whose 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is spending a second week at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 — calmly, but sternly, addressed the crowd after a “present” landed beside her. People throwing things at performers on stage has became a dangerous trend.
“Just because communication means having gentle, healthy boundaries,” said Swift, “it really freaks me out when stuff gets thrown on the stage. Because if it’s on the stage then a dancer can trip on it.”
“I love that you bought presents and that is so nice, but just, can you please not throw them on the stage,” she stated (rather than asked). “I love you so much.”
Swift’s Nov. 12 show was the third of a trio of concerts in Buenos Aires.
Saturday night’s show was particularly memorable, as her beau Travis Kelce was there. She paid special attention to him from the stage, sneaking in a clever shout-out in “Karma”: “Karma is the guy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me,” she sang with a giggle. When the concert wrapped, she ran straight to Kelce for a kiss before the couple headed backstage.
