Blake Lively wants Eras Tour setlist to be longer

After a caller phoned and pitched that Taylor Swift’s song 'Love Story' shouldn’t be a part of the Eras Tour setlist, Lively bluntly responded, “Ooh that’s rough.”

She probed the person, “You just hate happiness, or joy, or just your ears? You don’t like your ears?” 

To which the caller answered, “I think it’s a really good song, but I just think another song from 'Fearless' should thrive in the spotlight.” 



 

“I think it’s on there because it’s so well-known but I think a less-known one should have its time.”

Lively then quipped, “Honestly I wish the tour, the concert, was just like 47 hours long so that all the songs could be played at all times. So my popular opinion is that all, like yes.” 

“The answer is which song, the answer is yes. What’s the setlist? Yes. My answer is yes,” she emphasized. 

“So all of the songs from beginning to end should be played?” Greg James, the host asked. “Yes,” replied the 'A Simple Favor’ star. 



 

How long is concert in Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour? 

Usually, Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour show goes about three and a half hours and has music from seven different albums, including 'Lover,' '1989,' and Swift’s latest 'The Tortured Poets Department.'

The pop icon plays around 44 songs in her show, per People.

In July, Swift shared that she is godmother to Lively and Reynolds's children Betty, 4, Inez, 7, and James, 9, and Olin, 1.

During her London visit, Lively also responded to the Vienna concert cancellation amid terror threat, "Oh my gosh. I mean, how terrifying,” she told Access Hollywood.

“But thank goodness that they are completely on top of that.” The actress' concern for her pop superstar friend Taylor Swift is palpable, reflecting their deep bond that began in 2015. The 'Gossip Girl' alum and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, are often seen enjoying time with Taylor, who has even included their children in her music.

Lively’s comments follow a recent surprise by Taylor Swift for her fans in Vienna, where she was forced to cancel three concerts.
