Taylor Swift gave free tickets to a fan who was “harassed” by security guards during her Eras Tour concert in Philadelphia.
Speaking to the Daily Mail on Sunday, the fan — who has been identified as Kelly Inglis Kelly — revealed that the “Anti-Hero” singer gave her the opportunity to see the show on Sunday for free.
She described it as the best way to spend Mother’s Day.
On Saturday, Swift interrupted her concert while she was singing “Bad Blood” to diffuse a situation on the floor.
After noticing that the security guard was yelling at Kelly, the singer called him out personally and screamed at him to “stop.”
“She’s fine! She wasn’t doing anything!” she yelled as the song played on.
Kelly went into further detail about what had happened to cause Swift’s reaction.
“I was just dancing, and this security guard was just crazy, yelling at us,” she explained to the outlet. “He didn’t want us to take photos in front of the stage. He was being very strict.”
She claimed that “every time he passed us we had to stand back because we were worried he would kick us out.”
“He had been like that all night, he was really annoyed,” the teacher added. “I know Taylor Swift — she wants people to come to her shows and have fun. I wasn’t doing anything outrageous, I wasn’t trying to get to the other side of the barrier.”
It wasn’t until Swift got involved that the security guard let up. But it was too late as he was then escorted out of the premises.
Swift is now two months into her nearly five-month-long Eras tour, which has had a few bumps along the way.
As Pvnew previously reported, the Grammy-winning artist’s May 7 show in Nashville proved to be chaotic after concertgoers were forced to shelter in place for hours due to heavy rains.
One attendee told Pvnew that they were so closely packed together that some fans experienced panic attacks, while others threw up and even passed out.
Swift has also incurred some injuries along the way. During her April 23 show in Houston, fans noticed Swift had a nasty gash on her left hand.
She later addressed the concerns of Swifties via Twitter, telling everyone that she is “totally fine” and that it was her “fault completely.”
She explained, “tripped on my dress hem and fell in the dark backstage while running to a quick change – braced my fall with my palm. It was all very Mercury in retrograde coded. Don’t worry about me I’m gooooood
