Taylor Swift's South American Leg of her record-breaking Eras tour has been hit with a tragedy. During her latest gig in Brazil, her 23-year-old fan died after fainting due to the scorching heat in the Stadium.
Taylor expressed heartbreak over the incident as she stated, "I can't even tell you how devastated I am after this," adding that she feels the loss of her fan deeply and stands with the family of the concertgoer, who died.
