Swifties are in a frenzy following viral footage of Taylor Swift appearing to bɑttle a cold during her inaugural performance in Singapore. The global icon, aged 34, was captured coughing while delivering her Һit track “Delicate” at the National Stadium on Saturday night, sparking concerns among fans that this may prompt the cancellation of the remainder of her Eras world tour due to illness.

Expressing worry about Swift’s well-being, fans took to social media, with one stating, “She looks like she’s not feeling her best… girl needs some rest,” and another suggesting, “She should cancel the rest of the shows for health reasons.” The consensus among fans is that Swift deserves a break, with concerns about the tоll the tour is taking on her health.

Despite having three more shows scheduled in Singapore before heading to France for the continuation of her global tour, apprehensions persist within the Swiftie community. Meanwhile, Swift’s decision to perform solely in Singapore as part of her Southeast Asia tour has stirred discontent among fans in the region. Reports indicate that the country paid a substantial $4.3 million per show for Swift’s exclusive performance, leading to accusations of unfair competition and calls to boycott both Singapore and the artist.

The controversy surrounding Swift’s exclusive deal with Singapore has escalated tensions among neighboring countries, particularly with Thailand.

 Thailand’s Prime Minister, Srettha Thavisin, accused Singapore of cleverly securing exclusivity by paying Swift milliоns per concert, thereby restricting her performances in other Southeast Asian nations. The dispute has sparked debates over Singapore’s strategic move and has become a topic of discussion in the Southeast Asian diplomatic arena.

Despite the controversies, Swift’s shows in Singapore are expected to have a significant economic impact, with six sold-out nights at the 55,000-seat National Stadium this month.
