Taylor Swift delivered a powerful performance in front of a packed audience at London’s Wembley Stadium, marking the second night of her highly anticipated Eras Tour. Amidst her performance, Swift didn’t hold back her thoughts, indirectly addressing Kim Kardashian and critics alike, to the roar of nearly 90,000 spectators.
Clad in a blue, flowing dress, guitar in hand, Swift was poised to debut a live rendition of a song for the “Tortured Poets,” sharing with the crowd, “It really makes me think about how every time somebody talks negatively, it only drives me to push harder and strengthens my resolve,” showing gratitude for the support she’s received.
Continuing her set, Swift performed “thanK you aIMee,” a track speculated to be a nod to her feud with Kim Kardashian, followed by a lively version of “Mean” from “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version).” She creatively altered the lyrics to include a shoutout to performing in Wembley, much to the delight of the stadium’s audience.
A highlight of the night was when Swift surprised fans by inviting Paramore’s Hayley Williams to join her on stage, a reunion since their last live performance together during the Speak Now World Tour. Williams, in a striking purple dress, and Swift shared a heartfelt duet of “Castles Crumbling” from “Speak Now (Taylor’s Version),” cementing their long-standing musical friendship with a warm embrace.
Swift’s London performances are slated to continue, with anticipation building for her next destination in Dublin, Ireland.
