Taylor Swift was blown away during her Eras Tour as she was given an eight minute standing ovation by fans.

The 33-year-old pop star was filmed crying during her sold-out show at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, as her fans erupted into a lengthy applause. Taylor was initially left speechless by the crowd's reaction, before asking: "What did I do?"

In a video shared on Reddit, the singer was seen wearing a floor-length orange gown as she performed on stage. She held her hands to her head as she soaked in the applause, before saying: "Oh my God."

Taylor then blew kisses to the audience to show her appreciation for the standing ovation. At one point, she turned away to wipe tears from her eyes.

A third fan said: "As someone who was watching a livestream, it was an absolute blast and such a shock watching the applause go on and on. Obviously Taylor controls when she wants it to end, but it’s still fun seeing her appreciate the moment."

Taylor further delighted fans when she announced she will be re-recording her 1989 album. The record includes Taylor's famous hits such as Wildest Dreams and This Love, Shake it Off. She previously re-recorded her albums Red, Speak Now, and Fearless.

The Shake It Off hitmaker made the announcement during her final Los Angeles show. In a video shared on Twitter, she said: "There's something that I've been planning for a really, really, really, really, ridiculously, embarrassingly long time. And I think instead of just telling you about it, I think I'll just sort of show you."

The crowd went wild as screens around the stadium lit up with a sign for 1989 (Taylor's version). The album will be available on October 27.

Taylor also shared the exciting news on Twitter. She said: "Surprise!! 1989 (Taylor’s Version) is on its way to you! The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out October 27th.

"To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the 5 From The Vault tracks are so insane. I can’t believe they were ever left behind. But not for long!"
