During Taylor Swift’s recent concert at Milan’s San Siro Stadium, an unexpected mishap both entertained and concerned her fans. While performing a surprise mash-up of “The Moment I Know” and “I Almost Do” as part of her popular Eras Tour, the singer accidentally swallowed a bug.
Swift later addressed her audience’s concerns, saying, “I knew it would happen because there are so many bugs here tonight. It’ll be fine, I just need to cough a little.” Interestingly, this wasn’t the first time Swift encountered such an incident. Earlier in the year, she swallowed insects during concerts in London and Chicago.
Despite this minor glitch, Swift dazzled the crowd with her outfits throughout the night. One of her standout looks paid homage to her Fearless era, featuring a striking ensemble with gold and black motifs. Later, she switched to a white gown for her performance with the Tortured Poets Department, emblazoned with the phrase, “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?”
The Milan show was part of the whirlwind European leg of the Eras Tour. At one point, the entire crowd chanted “Sei Bellissima,” meaning “You are very beautiful” in Italian, a moment that visibly moved Swift as she took in the crowd’s adoration.
The concert in Milan came after two successful Eras Tour shows held on July 9 and 10. Following her performance in Italy, Swift took to Instagram to share her experiences with her fans. She posted, “The Eras Tour has brought so many firsts with it… for example, I’d never been to Switzerland before. This place is stunningly beautiful and I loved playing for those 2 wonderful crowds in Zurich. Pretty wild to think we only have 7 cities left on the European leg of the tour. Up next is a city I’ve been looking forward to playing for so long: Milan.”
Before arriving in Milan, Swift captivated audiences with two nights of performances in Amsterdam, and now, after Milan, she eagerly anticipates the next stops on her European tour.
