Taylor Swift handles wardrobe malfunction like a boss during the Stockholm Eras Tour show
Taylor Swift showcased her professionalism and poise as she faced a wardrobe malfunction at her third Eras Tour show in Stockholm, Sweden. The 34-year-old singer experienced an issue with her blue wrap dress mid-performance, prompting her to pause briefly.
In a fan-captured TikTok video, Swift can be seen struggling with the dress. Addressing the crowd, she said, "Talk amongst yourselves," before moving to her piano to fix the problem.

Swift eventually revealed a sparkly gold bra top underneath, part of her new 'The Tortured Poets Department' concert section, as a crew member assisted her. Some speculated that the issue involved Swift’s mic pack rather than the dress itself.
This isn’t the first time Swift has encountered wardrobe issues on stage. In November 2023, during a concert in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the heel of her silver Christian Louboutin boots broke. She promptly removed the broken heel and tossed it into the crowd, continuing to perform effortlessly on her toes.

Travis Kelce doesn't have any plans to propose to Taylor Swift
Despite their flourishing romance, there are no engagement plans in the immediate future for Travis Kelce and Taylor, sources tell Us Weekly.
An insider revealed, "Travis has no plans on proposing to Taylor anytime soon. It’s not even on his radar. Marriage is something he takes very seriously and not something he would ever just jump into without giving it some careful consideration."
Kelce, 34, "cares very deeply" about Swift, 34, but isn't yet ready for such a significant step. Despite the speculation stirred by their recent romantic getaway to Lake Como and the ever-growing fan chatter online, the couple is in no rush to get engaged.
The adorable pair made their relationship public in September 2023 and have shown strong support for each other.
In January, another tipster had emphasized that the couple's summer plans didn't include a possible engagement. They noted, "Things between them are going amazing, but they haven’t even been together for a year yet and still have so much to learn about each other."

Taylor Swift fans drive an upsurge in European air travel
United Airlines has reported a significant increase in demand for flights to European cities hosting Swift's Eras Tour concerts. Bookings to Lisbon, Portugal, where Swift is slated to perform on May 24 and May 25, have surged by 25% compared to last summer, with similar spikes seen in other cities on her tour itinerary.
Flights to Milan and Munich for Swift's upcoming shows in July have experienced the largest increase in demand, with up to 45% more passengers compared to last year. Delta Air Lines has also noted a rise in demand for flights to Swift's European tour destinations, as the airline prepares for its largest-ever international summer schedule.
The surge in air travel is attributed to Swift's massive fan base, known as "Swifties," who are traveling from the United States and other parts of the world to attend her concerts. This phenomenon, dubbed "Swiftonomics," highlights Swift's influence on the economies of the cities and countries she visits during her global tour.
According to a recent Barclays report, more than a million fans are expected to attend the pop star's shows in the UK, injecting a total of $953 million (£755 million) into the economy. The report emphasizes the strong connection between cultural icons like Swift and their devoted fan bases, leading to increased spending on travel, accommodation, and other expenses.
