Taylor Swift halts second Anfield show after crowd's reaction

Taylor Swift was so taken aback with the crowds at Anfield on Friday she halted her performance on the second night of her Eras Tour in the city.

The global pop sensation graced the stage at the Reds' home ground on Friday for the second of three performances. And while Taylor, 34, is one of the most successful musicians of our time, she has been surprisingly humble.

She told the Liverpool crowds they had made a "stunning impression" on her, and at one point even halted the entire show.

After a brilliant rendition of Champagne Problems, Taylor was so moved she took her earpieces out and stopped performing as she took in how loud the crowd were cheering her. After a couple of minutes, she said: "Wow. This is one of the most expressive, genuine, generous crowds I've ever been in front of.

"I've made so many best friends out here tonight. I am so lucky to get to play a show for people like you and to get to meet you.

"Thank you so, so much for that. I love you."
