00:04 - Taylor Swift has been delivering moments after moments
00:07 during her heiress tour, and honestly,
00:09 I've lost count of how many have actually gone viral.
00:11 (upbeat music)
00:13 - Welcome to the heiress tour.
00:15 (crowd cheering)
00:16 - Seems like this tour has consumed most of 2023
00:19 and has become a hot topic with everybody,
00:22 specifically these incredible moments
00:23 that you will never forget.
00:25 ♪ We like that song ♪
00:26 ♪ This is my thing ♪
00:27 ♪ Oh, my thing ♪
00:29 - So let's dive right into it.
00:30 Literally, one moment that we'll never forget
00:33 is when Taylor first got into the stage
00:35 and it went absolutely viral.
00:37 The internet went nuts over the videos
00:39 of Taylor doing a seemingly magical stage dive
00:42 where she appears to jump head first into a pool
00:44 and swim down the stage.
00:46 (crowd cheering)
00:48 Yeah, she really knows how to put on a show
00:52 and get the people talking.
00:53 And speaking of that, another big moment
00:56 is when Taylor announced Speak Now,
00:57 Taylor's version in Nashville.
00:59 But man, this had Swifties everywhere celebrating,
01:02 myself included.
01:03 There had been so much speculation leading up to this moment
01:06 with fans picking apart every hidden message
01:08 that Taylor put in her show
01:10 for clues on when this big announcement would come
01:13 or if it would even come.
01:14 But thankfully, we got what we wanted.
01:16 - So if you would direct your attention
01:18 to the back big screen that we have.
01:21 (crowd cheering)
01:24 - While on tour, she also announced
01:26 that another Taylor's version was coming, 1989.
01:29 And she did it in the most Taylor Swift way
01:32 by wearing blue versions of each era's costume,
01:35 which was the color for 1989.
01:37 - We're gonna show you something again.
01:39 Excited to show you.
01:40 (crowd cheering)
01:44 - She finally revealed the new cover and release date
01:46 after singing the bonus track, New Romantics,
01:49 during the surprise song set.
01:51 But some of these moments we'll never forget
01:53 aren't as celebratory.
01:54 If you recall, Taylor Swift defended a fan
01:57 from a security guard in Philadelphia
01:58 while singing Bad Blood, which is shockingly fitting.
02:02 In the middle of her performance,
02:03 Taylor called out security saying, "She's fine,"
02:06 presumably referring to a fan in the crowd.
02:08 Taylor then shouted, "She wasn't doing anything,"
02:11 and repeatedly yelled, "Hey, stop."
02:13 - She wasn't doing anything.
02:14 ♪ Used to be bad love ♪
02:16 - Hey, take it to the top!
02:18 - It was equally as impressive as it was noble
02:20 because she did not miss a beat or a lyric.
02:23 And can you imagine Taylor Swift yelling at you?
02:25 Hey, at least it would make for a pretty cool story,
02:27 kind of like accidentally eating a bug.
02:30 Yep, that actually happened to T Swift.
02:32 Poor girl, I think I would cry and leave right then and there
02:35 but no, she is a seasoned pro.
02:36 During her stop in Chicago, Taylor briefly paused
02:39 for a coughing fit while performing
02:41 before admitting to the crowd
02:42 that she had actually swallowed a bug.
02:44 Of course, she made light of the moment,
02:46 joking that it was delicious,
02:47 and then she carried on with the song.
02:48 As they say, the show must go on.
02:50 - I'm happy to have them.
02:51 (crowd cheering)
02:54 Totally fine, it's just, it's just stupid.
02:57 - So it might not be a love story
02:58 between Taylor and her creepy critter,
03:00 but it certainly was for all of the adorable couples
03:03 who got engaged at the tour.
03:04 Of course, the proposal was set to love story
03:06 because, well, duh, the heiress tour
03:09 quickly became a hotspot for proposals,
03:11 kind of like the one in the "Love Story" music video.
03:13 Can you imagine being proposed to like this?
03:15 I know I would love it,
03:17 but public proposals aren't for everyone.
03:19 I'm curious to know your thoughts on this.
03:21 But regardless, couples have been getting engaged
03:23 left, right, and center during this tour,
03:25 and personally, I love to see it.
03:26 And clearly, Taylor loves the people who work for her.
03:29 Right after the US leg of her tour came to an end,
03:32 she reportedly gave some hefty bonuses
03:34 to those who worked on it.
03:35 I'm talking over $55 million in the hands of everyone,
03:39 from dancers to truck drivers and more.
03:41 That is incredible.
03:43 Because let's be real, Taylor Swift is absolutely raking
03:46 in the cash from the heiress tour,
03:47 not to mention all the wealth she accumulated
03:49 over all those years from her 10 studio albums
03:52 and various tours.
03:53 I just love that some extra money went to the people
03:55 who are also working extremely hard,
03:57 but honestly not getting the recognition that they deserve,
04:00 and probably not the paycheck that they deserve either.
04:02 It warms my heart.
04:03 So what are some moments from the heiress tour
04:05 that you'll personally never forget?
