During her first concert in Rio de Janeiro, Taylor Swift took a momentary break to ensure her fans had access to water. In response to rising temperatures nearing 100 degrees and an issued excessive heat warning on Friday, Swift paused the “Evermore” set, addressing the need for water in a specific section of the crowd.

“Right here, maybe 30, 35, 40 feet back, there are people that need water,” she pointed out. “Whoever is in charge of giving them that, just make sure that happens. Can I get a signal that you know where they are?”

While the crowd chanted for water, Swift communicated with her team off-stage, asking if they could see the phones amid the fervor. The late spring weather in Rio, coupled with humidity, was expected to make it feel like 109 degrees on Saturday.
In the “Red” era, before the extended version of “All Too Well,” Swift seamlessly incorporated a gesture of goodwill into her performance. She grabbed a water bottle from one side of the diamond stage and tossed it to fans on the other side without missing a beat, singing lyrics like “And you held my lifeless frame.”
Before playing “Champagne Problems” at the ivy-covered piano bench, Swift expressed gratitude to Brazilians for projecting a “Junior Jewels”-inspired T-shirt onto the Christ the Redeemer statue. The shirt bore the message “Welcome to Brazil,” a result of a fan campaign that raised water and food donations for the community.
Addressing the crowd, Swift said, “You went so far above and beyond in welcoming us to Brazil. I feel completely unworthy of this honor, but it’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever done for me.”
The Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio sported the “Welcome to Brazil” shirt inspired by Swift’s “Junior Jewels” shirt. Swift, who kicked off the show by welcoming the sold-out crowd in Portuguese, will continue the Eras Tour with two more shows in Rio de Janeiro before heading to São Paulo, Brazil for the final stop of the 2023 tour leg next weekend.
