Yup, she played “Paris” in Paris!
Taylor Swift kicked off the European leg of her Eras Tour on Thursday night, May 9, starting off in Paris for a four-night stand at París La Défense Arena. The singer treated fans to a 46-song setlist that included a few new surprises and some tracks off of her new album, The Tortured Poets Department. New costumes, mashups and choreography delighted the crowd, too.
