Fan throws things at Taylor Swift during her Buenos Aires concert, singer says 'freaks me out'
Story highlights
Taylor Swift is currently touring South America as part of her Eras Tour.
Taylor Swift is the latest to fall victim to the act of fans throwing objects at artists on stage. Several others before her have bore witness to crazy things being tossed on the stage mid-performance. It happened with Taylor while she was performing as part of her Eras Tour at a Buenos Aires concert in Argentina.
Taylor Swift told her fans, “It really freaks me out” as a fan threw a present on the stage. She paused her performance at the concert and addressed the crowd. She was at the piano when the object landed next to her. “Just because communication means having gentle, healthy boundaries, it really freaks me out when stuff gets thrown on the stage, because if it’s on the stage then a dancer can trip on it.”

This is not a one-off case for an artist getting things thrown at them. In June, Bebe Rexha was hit in the face by a concertgoer’s phone, which led to a man being arrested and charged with assault. Then, pop singer Ava Max was slapped by an audience member.
Taylor Swift kicked off the South American leg of her record-breaking Eras Tour in Argentina this week.
