During her second Eras Tour show in Milan, Taylor Swift experienced an unexpected yet humorous moment when her piano malfunctioned during the acoustic segment of the concert.
Swift, 34, known for her engaging and meticulous performances, handled the situation with her characteristic charm and humor, much to the delight of her fans.
A Night of Surprises and Mashups
The mishap occurred after Swift performed a guitar mashup of “Mr. Perfectly Fine” from Fearless (Taylor’s Version) and the title track from Red (Taylor’s Version).
As she transitioned to the piano to begin a mashup of “Getaway Car” from Reputation and “Out of the Woods” from 1989, the piano, painted with colorful flowers, started malfunctioning.
“We have finally broken this thing,” Swift joked to the crowd as she peered under the piano’s lid. A crew member quickly came to assist, attempting to fix the instrument.
In a moment captured by fans on TikTok and X (formerly Twitter), Swift humorously tried to close the lid herself, succeeding and announcing triumphantly, “Oh, I did it!
The Show Goes On
Despite the piano hiccup, Swift continued to deliver an electrifying performance. This concert marked her 113th on the ongoing Eras Tour.
