Taylor Swift fans have hilariously reacted to a mysterious shadowy figure spotted watching her Madrid concert from a secluded spot high above the crowd.
During the 34-year-old pop sensation’s performance at Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, an eerie dark silhouette was seen alone near the top of the stadium. This section of the vast venue was supposedly off-limits to the general public, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the scene.
Swifties flocked to social media, sharing their tongue-in-cheek theories about the secret identity of the enigmatic concertgoer.
Some joked that it was none other than Kanye West, continuing his decade-long explosive feud with Taylor.
“That was Billie Eilish who couldn’t afford the ticket,” joked one user on X, formerly Twitter, while another quipped that it was Taylor’s ex Joe Alwyn.
“IM SCARED WTF DELETE,” exclaimed one Swiftie, while another argued, “Knowing Taylor Swift, she’s probably behind this and she’s teasing something.”
“Aliens watching,” said one observer. Another wrote, “It’s Peter Pan or Peter Parker, not sure,” while a third darkly suggested, “Slenderman.”
One fan sneered that music mogul Scooter Braun, who has been embroiled in a years-long legal battle with Taylor over ownership of her masters, is “still harassing her I see.”
Quoting a line from Taylor’s new song “loml” — an abbreviation for “love of my life” — from her latest album *The Tortured Poets Department*, one Swiftie wrote: “Dancing phantoms on the terrace.”
Taylor is currently hurtling around the world on her Eras Tour, an economic juggernaut that has propelled her into billionaire status.
The Madrid shows took place last Wednesday and Thursday at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu, best known as Real Madrid’s home stadium.
From there, she brought her show to France, performing at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais in Décines-Charpieu on the outskirts of Lyon.
Her next stop is the Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh, the largest stadium in Scotland, where she will perform this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
At several recent shows, Taylor has been supported by her dashing NFL boyfriend, Travis Kelce, whom she has also watched at several of his games.
Between stops on the European leg of her tour, Taylor and Travis enjoyed a luxurious five-day getaway to Lake Como. They were spotted cruising on the water and dining at their €20,000-a-night villa at the five-star Grand Hotel Tremezzo.
Travis recently shared how he stays levelheaded while navigating their whirlwind romance under the glare of worldwide scrutiny.
“When you have good family and friends around you, it makes that aspect of life that much easier,” said Travis, whose brother Jason Kelce is also an NFL star.
“I’ve always been a very grounded guy, you know,” he maintained on Good Morning America. “It might not come off like that when I’m playing football. But off the field, I just wanna be a genuine person. I try not to get too far down the road, because you just never know what opportunities are gonna present themselves.”
