Taylor Swift's Wardrobe Malfunction in Brazil Is No Feat for 'Errors' Tour Expert
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift meant it when she said, "I never skip a beat, I'm lightning on my feet," and she proved it once again at the latest iteration of the so-called "Errors" tour.
While performing on the final night of the Eras Tour in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on the evening of Monday, Nov. 20, not long into the Lover set—which is the first era of the night—Swift realized something didn't feel quite right, only to discover that the heel of one of her glittering Louboutin boots had snapped.
Video of the moment captures the "Midnight Rain" songstress smiling gratefully as the crowd screams her name between songs, but her expression quickly morphs into concern as she leans over to the side. She tries to lift her foot toward her but ultimately takes it to the floor, ripping the heel off and tossing it into the crowd before transitioning seamlessly to perform "The Man" for the screaming crowd, strutting down the runway flawlessly despite having to maintain her balance like a Barbie.

In another video taken before the first costume change, Swift stands before the microphone with her acoustic guitar strapped across her shoulder, welcoming the crowd in Portuguese before spinning to see the whole stadium, all while continuing to support herself with just one heel.

It's unclear where the videos originated as they've been reposted by a number of other TikTokers and Twitter users, including several update accounts dedicated to the singer and her record-breaking tour.
An unidentified fan is also said to have caught the broken heel, making off with what may be the most unique souvenir of the entire tour.
Pop culture TikToker Jessica Golich shared a photo reportedly posted by the fan, which shows a red-bottom, crystal-embedded heel tucked carefully into a checkered bag.
Talk about a keepsake!
