Taylor Swift stopped, smiled, turned around in every direction she could on stage, and admired the 65,000 fans screaming and cheering for her in the sold-out Caesars Superdome.
In a pink bedazzled bodysuit, the 34-year-old global pop superstar opened Night 2 of The Eras Tour in New Orleans with songs from “Lover,” and asked fans to belt the “Cruel Summer” bridge.
“New Orleans, we have arrived,” she said as she strutted across the stage stage.
She then kneeled and spun around, pointing her finger at everyone in the audience.
“Well hello, New Orleans,” she continued. “I’m not going to lie you guys … you just made me feel really, really powerful.”
Before her team helped her slip on a hot pink blazer to perform “The Man,” Swift told her adoring fans there’s nowhere else she’d rather be this Saturday night.
“I get to perform a sold-out show for 65,000 people in New Orleans,” she said.
Swift still has many Eras left Saturday night, and will likely play until about 11 p.m. Stay tuned for surprise songs and more.
