When it was announced that Taylor Swift would be performing in Brazil, people couldn’t hide their excitement, but a horrible tragedy happened that no one could have imagined.
Brazil is currently going through an impressive heat wave, which claimed the life of a 23 year old woman, causing her to go into cardiac arrest and die while waiting to see her favorite artist live.
Family members of the Taylor Swift fan who died in Brazil attended the Eras Tour as guests.
According to the Brazilian daily Folha de S. Paulo, Swift had a meeting with the family before to the performance in Brazil. They claimed to have taken a picture of Machado’s family with Swift on Instagram and that they witnessed the performance from one of the floor-level VIP tents. Every member of Benevides’ family is donning a shirt with her face.
Recall that when the disaster happened and the fire department confirmed the misfortune, the singer posted on her social networks:
“I can’t believe I’m writing these words but it is with a shattered heart that I say we lost a fan earlier tonight before my show,” Swift said in an Instagram story message several hours after the show. “I can’t even tell you how devastated I am by this.”
The accident will hopefully not go unpunished and the production company will comply with what is asked of them with the intention of justice. Undoubtedly what happened was a disgrace and it is hoped that it will never happen again.
Undoubtedly what happened on the first night of Taylor Swift’s concert in Brazil is something that no one will forget, not even Taylor herself, and what happened was a disgrace that should never happen.
What do you think about it? Do you think Taylor Swift should get more involved in the terrible event that happened at the concert?
