Taylor Swift fans have expressed their fury after footage emerged of concertgoers throwing objects at the singer.
A bizarre trend has sprung up as of late of musicians having to endure having items thrown at them while performing live, with Harry Styles recently being whacked in the face while on stage.
Bebe Rexha suffered a painful-looking eye injury as she showed off her bruise and dressing on her face following an incident, while Ava Max was slapped by an individual during a show.
Adele even gave a warning during one of her performances in Las Vegas, stating: ‘I dare you, dare you to throw something at me. Stop throwing things at the artist!’
In a new video that was posted on TikTok, Taylor was walking throw a gangway after coming off the stage at a stop on her Eras tour flanked by security staff members as fans shouted to her from above.
A few were then shown in the clip throwing something at her, which was claimed to have been bracelets, as the 33-year-old cowered.
@Taylor Swift @Taylor Nation I was enchanted to (kind of) meet you🫶🫶🫶#kctstheerastour #taylorswift #swifttok #KCN2
The men working as security could be seen trying to either catch or bat away the objects as the fans above screamed in excitement at the sight of the singer.
The original poster of the video on TikTok wrote in a comment: ‘To clarify: I didn’t throw any bracelets at her. I know people are stitching this and saying their piece.’
The video has since been reshared on Twitter, where more Swifties have shared how angry they are by Taylor’s treatment amid the spate of recent throwing incidents.
‘STOP THROWING THINGS AT PERFORMERS. Are you out of your mind? What’s wrong with you?’ one person tweeted, while another wrote: ‘How many times do we need to have this conversation?’
‘Y’all are idiots…it’s not cute or cool,’ someone else said, as another added: ‘U could of been normal and shouted her name gesturing the bracelet but u wanna hit her? fans aren’t really fans these days [sic].’
One person pointed out that artists might end up being deterred from going on tour if they keep having to face fans throwing things at them.
Another stated: ‘Since that #BebeRexhar incident these concerts are never been the same. Throwing things at celebs has become a Nasty Trend. I mean What on earth is wrong with this morons😡😡
‘Why would you do that. Before attending to the concerts please go & double check your brains probably🤦♀️🤦♀️.’
