A third fan wrote: "Looks like she’s only got 2 shows then the whole of April off so hoping she can rest," while someone else added: "Oh no..finally i was wondering how she can do all these eras tour without getting sick coz damn queen was performing with all that rain n heat."
Taylor's latest performance comes after she faced a wave of criticism for reportedly being paid $3million (£2.3million) per show in Singapore to stop her from performing anywhere else in the region. Politicians in the Philippines and Thailand were left furious after Singapore struck a deal to limit the singer's Eras Tour performances in Southeast Asia.
The singer had six sold-out tours in Singapore (2024 Ashok Kumar/TAS24)A deal was made by Singaporean authorities which has prevented Taylor from performing in other territories in Southeast Asia, according to reports. Officials hope this will force fans to flock to the wealthy city-state.
Srettha Thavisin, the Prime Minister of Thailand, told the iBusiness Forum 2024 that Taylor was offered $3million (£2.3million) per show by the Singaporean government in exchange for Eras Tour exclusivity. With Taylor performing six shows there, that works out at $18million (£13.8million).
Srettha said he had spoken to the organiser of Taylor's concert who informed him of the deal with the Singaporean government. He told the Thai Enquirer that it would actually be cheaper for Taylor to perform in Thailand.
He added: "I believe she would be able to attract more sponsors and tourists to Thailand." Srettha said if he had known about the deal with Singapore, he would have tried to bring the shows to Thailand instead as concerts "can generate added value for the economy".
