The global megastar, 34, began the European leg of her £1.4billion tour last month as she returned with a new edited set list and costumes to go with her newly released album The Tortured Poets Department.

With an array of glamorous outfits, dynamic staging and incredible back up dancers, Taylor treats fans to a three hour set list as she takes them through each of her albums. 

On Friday night the singer will play the first of three nights at Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh before heading to Liverpool, Cardiff and London for dates throughout June. 

However her performances haven’t come without their mishaps, as we take a look at the unplanned errors in the eras concert and Taylor proves the show must go on. 

Missing THAT stage dive
As well as her impressive 45 song-long set, the star has also brought the theatrics to the show.

At one point during the performance, she takes a pool-like dive head-first off of the stage, exiting through a gap in the floor.

Disappearing in the most extravagant way, Taylor left fans in the audience in awe after she first debuted the stunt.

However, things didn’t quite go to plan during her show in Tampa Florida as she missed her cue for the iconic dive after the trap door failed to open.

Realising her escape route hadn’t opened up, Taylor was seen exclaiming: ‘What the f**k’ as she laughed with the audience, before adding ‘one more time’ and successfully diving off stage.

Choking on a fly

Taylor was caught off guard during her performance in Chicago after she went from introducing a new member of her band to unexpectedly choking on a bug. 

Introducing her new member, Taylor gushed: ‘We are so lucky to have them…’ before she was interrupted by a pesky fly.  

As the singer began to cough and she told fans through her splutters: ‘Just swallowed a bug I am so sorry.
