When you’re on a record-breaking global tour, you have to keep performing, even if you feel under the weather. Taylor Swift showed her professionalism over the weekend in Edinburgh, managing a runny nose during her performance.
Despite the fact that summer is just around the corner, the cold air in the stadium didn’t help her situation. Some fans believe the chilly temperatures, which reached 46.4 degrees Fahrenheit, were to blame for her discomfort. While performing “Don’t Blame Me,” Swift was seen wiping her nose, even letting snot fall onto her skirt.
Though she soldiered on, some fans accused her of flicking mucus toward them, while others took to social media expressing disgust. “Taylor Swift blew her nose and snot on her skirt on stage,” one user commented.
Many others defended her, noting it was just human. “She likely didn’t have a tissue nearby. What was she supposed to do?”
Taylor’s tour will now move to Wembley, followed by Cardiff and Liverpool, before heading back to the U.S.
