Taylor Swift<\/a> is drawing <\/span>Barbie <\/em><\/a>comparisons after her heel broke during her\u00a0<\/span>Eras Tour<\/a> concert on Monday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

During her concert in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, the “Maroon” singer, 33, had to pause and remove the heel of her shoe after it broke in the middle of her <\/span>Lover <\/span><\/em>setlist. Despite only having one heel to stand on, photos and videos captured Swift on stage with a perfectly arched foot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In <\/span>one clip<\/a>, the <\/span>BBMA winner<\/a> even walks around the stage while greeting the crowd and welcoming them to the Eras Tour in Portuguese.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“She stands on tiptoe, with a broken heel, like a real-life Barbie <\/span> <\/span>#RioTSTheErasTour<\/a>,” X account @TSTheErasTour posted alongside a video of Swift.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Taylor Swift (Barbie’s version),” one fan wrote while resharing the video.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another fan account simply took a screenshot of Swift on stage with her broken heel and placed it next to a still from the 2023 movie for comparison.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“<\/span>\"\ud83d\udc60\"Taylor Swift IS the real life barbie,” the account wrote in their post.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In <\/span>Barbie<\/span><\/em>, <\/span>Margot Robbie<\/a>‘s “stereotypical Barbie” has perfectly arched feet like the Mattel doll until her heels fall which sends her on a journey of self-discovery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to fan accounts on X, Swift was forced to go on for the remaining half of her songs during the <\/span>Lover <\/span><\/em>era and even broke off the heel herself and tossed it into the crowd.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Videos online show the interaction and Swift’s decision to move forward with the event sans one heel.\u00a0<\/span>\"\ud83c\udde7\ud83c\uddf7\"<\/p>\n

“You’re making me feel amazing right now,” she told the screaming crowd of 60,000.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One fan who was purportedly at the concert Monday posted a photo to his X account saying he had caught the heel and sharing a picture of the bejeweled part of Swift’s shoe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Monday night’s performance was a rescheduled event after Swift canceled Saturday’s show due to extreme temperatures in Rio De Janeiro.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On Friday, the heat index — which accounts for both heat and humidity — read at a shocking 140 degrees Fahrenheit, according to\u00a0<\/span>FOX Weather<\/a><\/em>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The heat was so extreme that concertgoers were passing out and one young woman,\u00a0Ana Clara Benevides Machado, 23, died before the show began on Nov. 17.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Ana’s cause of death has yet to be confirmed but the office of Rio\u2019s public prosecutor opened a criminal investigation and said her body was being examined,\u00a0<\/span>The Associated Press<\/em><\/a>\u00a0reported.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a\u00a0<\/span>statement on Saturday morning<\/a>, the “Lover” singer said she was “devastated” by Benevides’ death.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“I can\u2019t believe I\u2019m writing these words but it is with a shattered heart that I say we lost a fan earlier tonight before my show,\u201d Swift wrote in an Instagram story. “I can\u2019t even tell you how devastated I am by this. There\u2019s very little information I have other than the fact that she was so incredibly beautiful and far too young.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I\u2019m not going to be able to speak about this from stage because I feel overwhelmed by grief when I even try to talk about it. I want to say now I feel this loss deeply and my broken heart goes out to her family and friends. This is the last thing I ever thought would happen when\u00a0we decided to bring this tour\u00a0to Brazil,” she continued.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Sunday,<\/span> Swift\u00a0appeared to honor Benevides <\/a>during her Eras Tour performance, singing an emotionally charged song about loss.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The 33-year-old singer performed “Bigger Than the Whole Sky” as one of her surprise songs as she played a rain-soaked set at Est\u00e1dio Ol\u00edmpico Nilton Santos in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.<\/span><\/p>\n

The song, which is featured as a bonus track on her\u00a0<\/span>Midnights — 3am Edition<\/span><\/em>, includes the lyrics: “Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye \/ You were bigger than the whole sky \/ You were more than just a short time.” Swift appeared to become emotional as she sang, but did not offer any commentary about the choice of song.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
