Taylor Swift's ongoing Eras Tour continues to thrill fans in concert and online with a slew of viral moments, including celebrity lookalike backup dancers and some very special guests. The singer's April 13 show in Tampa, Florida was no exception, and Swift's stellar handling of the on-stage mishap caught the attention of Swifties everywhere.
In a now-viral video, Swift is seen preparing for the fan-favorite stage diving portion of the concert, during which the hitmaker stands up from her piano and dives across the stage below, then seemingly swam beneath the catwalk back to her main stage for the final act of her 3-hour, 44-song performance. However, things didn't go as planned at Raymond James Stadium and the stage didn't open in time for her dive. Ever the professional, Swift laughed off the technical glitches and eventually jumped into the midnight portion of the concert when the stage finally opened.
As mentioned, fans were quick to praise the singer's handling of the brief mishap, with one Swift tweeting: "She handled it like a pro." Meanwhile, one Swift tweeted. , another fan described the Grammy winner as "so professional and so funny," adding, "I gotta love her."
"I love the little mistakes here and there, she seems to be having more fun," one user also commented. "The splashing sound she makes while standing there is giving me a signal," joked another.
Ahead of her performance in Florida, Swift was also praised for making a large donation to a local food bank in Tampa, with nonprofit organization Feeding Tampa Bay writing in an Instagram post: "Thank you Taylor for being a hero and supporting Feeding Tampa Bay mission to end hunger by 2025. Your generosity will put more than 125,000 meals on the table.”
