After a difficult weekend for Taylor Swift, she’s back on stage — and sharing a touching moment with her adoring (and mourning) fans.
It was a rough few days for not only the 33-year-old, but her fan base in Rio de Janeiro, as well. Between scorching temperatures, a fan death, and the postponement of a show, the Brazil leg of her Eras Tour certainly didn’t go as planned. But on Sunday, the Blank Space singer tried to make the best of it.

In a fan clip circulating around TikTok, Taylor can be heard singing Bigger Than the Whole Sky, a notable song about grief. The lyrics go:
See (below), and it’s obviously very obvious to make a connection between the song itself and the awful and tragic Swiftie fan death that occurred in Brazil days ago:
As we reported over the weekend, 23-year-old Ana Clara Benevides Machado tragically spent some of her final moments at the Estadio Olímpico Nilton Santos stadium on Friday. Brazilian outlet Fohla de S Paulo noted that she went into cardiac arrest after passing out at the venue. Sadly, she passed away shortly after being rushed to a local hospital.
Taylor addressed the heartbreaking situation later that same night on her Instagram, writing in a Story post:
The next day, she announced that she would be postponing her Saturday show due to “extreme temperatures.”
After such a devastating turn of events, it was a really thoughtful touch to share a vulnerable moment like this with her fans — especially in honor of Ana. In the comments, fans wrote things like:
Our hearts continue to be with Ana’s family during this unimaginably difficult times.
