During Taylor Swift’s recent concert in Madrid, attendees caught sight of an eerie figure moving alone in the stadium’s upper echelons, prompting a wave of theories among fans.
The enigmatic entity was noted for its silhouette-like appearance, situated near the summit of Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, where the event took place in Spain’s capital city.
Social media platform X was abuzz as Swift’s supporters speculated over the identity of the unknown individual, with one humorously suggesting it could be a ticket-evading intruder.
Conjectures varied from it being Taylor’s beau Travis Kelce, to other music industry titans such as Kanye West or Nicki Minaj making a clandestine appearance.
“This is classic Taylor Swift, pulling the strings on some elaborate ruse,” a fan posited, while another labeled the occurrence as downright “bone-chilling.”
“Are we witnessing a ‘dancing phantom on the terrace’?” one commenter offered, referencing a line from Swift’s song “loml” off her album ‘The Tortured Poets Department.’
Thankfully, a concert attendee later clarified, explaining that the figure was simply a member of the security staff paying mind to the audience.
“It was literally a security man, I was nearby and saw him keeping a vigil over our area the whole time,” they explained.
Swift’s performance in Madrid was a two-night engagement last Wednesday and Thursday, part of her global ‘Eras’ concert series.
Departing Spain, the star continued her tour in France ahead of her scheduled visit to Edinburgh, Scotland.
The impressive 161-date ‘Eras’ tour kicked off in March 2023 in the US and is slated to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Canada.
Swift has invested significantly in her performance extravaganzas, with The U.S. Sun unveiling last week that the star spent over $300,000 on gourmet catering for her crew of 300, including $20,000 on paella, $2,500 on cheese, and a tidy sum on choice wines.
According to an earlier report from The U.S. Sun, Swift also utilized $4.3 million for hair, makeup, costumes, and backup dancer compensation.
“Our team is akin to an army. Even so, everyone relishes these demanding projects,” a consultant divulged, discussing the coordination required for the tour’s European leg, especially given the various stage conditions.
Apparently, ten makeup artists have been engaged for the European shows, each raking in approximately $65,000 for three months of service, as per the same source.
Security details for Swift and her entourage have been estimated to cost $30 million, leading industry insiders to hail this tour as potentially the grandest and costliest in history.
