Taylor Swift has thanked her 'The Eras' tour crew who "worked tirelessly" during their time off to help her introduce a new segment to the show.
The 34-year-old pop star took a break from the tour this year releasing her 11th studio album 'The Tortured Poets Department’ during the gap - and she has now added a new segment of the show dedicated to the record which she debuted at her comeback gig at La Défense Arena in Paris, France on Thursday night (09.05.24) - and she has now written a thank you note expressing her gratitude to everyone who helped make the changes possible.
In a post on Instagram, she penned: "This post is dedicated to the new 'Tortured Poets' section of the 'Eras Tour' (aka Female Rage The Musical!) and everyone who made these memories so magical.
"To my crew, fellow performers, and band who worked tirelessly in their break to concoct this surprise for you - but mostly for the fans in Paris.
"I’m so thankful that it was you we got to show this to for the first time because you gave us so much excitement, passion, and love. I’m SO fired up to play this for every crowd on the tour. See you very soon, Stockholm!"
After wrapping her four shows in Paris, Taylor will return to the stage at the Friends Arena in Stockholm on May 17.
The new section of the show includes songs from the new album which were performed live for the first time in Paris.
Taylor sang 'But Daddy I Love Him' and 'So High School' together along with 'Who’s Afraid Of Little Old Me?', Down Bad', 'Fortnight', 'The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived' and 'I Can Do It With A Broken Heart'.
The tour features songs from all of Taylor's album "eras" and is now up to date with the inclusion of 'The Tortured Poets Department’.
To make way for the new segment, the singer had to restructure the show and cut songs from other areas.
Tracks which have been chopped include 'The Archer', 'Long Live' and 'The 1 ' as well as 'Tis The Damn Season', 'Tolerate It' and 'The Last Great American Dynasty'.
'The Eras' tour kicked off in March 2023 in Glendale, Arizona and Taylor will perform 152 stadium dates across the globe before wrapping the shows in Vancouver, Canada in December.
