Meanwhile Taylor recently gave her London fans a thrill of a lifetime as she recently brought her The Eras World Tour to Wembley Stadium over multiple nights.
The songstress has just completed her first round of Eras Tour shows in the capital, selling out the UK’s largest venue and playing to 89,000 people for three nights in a row on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
From some of the biggest names in Britain attending, to guest duets with Hayley Williams and Gracie Abrams, to Taylor’s NFL beau Travis Kelce even making a surprise appearance onstage, the three-night musical marathon was nothing short of show-stopping.
