Taylor Swift is back at it! The 34-year-old pop star returned to her global Eras Tour on Thursday (May 9) following a two-month break, kicking off the trek’s European leg at La Defense Arena in Paris for the first of four planned shows at the venue — complete with several new costumes, dance numbers, visuals, special effects and, best of all, songs.
During the break, Swift released her new album The Tortured Poets Department, which immediately debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and broke several records along the way. But with a new LP in the books, fans couldn’t help but wonder how the singer would shake up her tried-and-true setlist to make room for the new material.
And make room, she did. Swift ended up cutting several numbers from her past eras and restructuring the show to carve out space for a total of seven tracks from Tortured Poets — or, “As I like to call it, ‘Female Rage: The Musical,’” the 14-time Grammy winner joked right after the TTPD section concluded, transitioning into the nightly surprise-song section. The new segment of the Eras show also featured the superstar levitating over the stage, getting abducted by a UFO and a ragtime jazz interlude.
“This has been an unforgettable night in Paris!” Swift gushed to the crowd before closing out as usual with “Karma.” “Thank you so much!”
