Taylor Swift Screaming Mid-Song in New Eras Video Settles Fan Debate
As Taylor Swift continues to perform her Eras Tour concerts in sold-out stadiums, a new video from one of her recent shows settled a fan debate.
Previously, a clip of the pop superstar screaming mid-song while singing her Tortured Poets Department track “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” circulated on social media.
Many Swifties were concerned, thinking Swift nearly fell or was hurt somehow by her earpiece. Others wondered if the singer was experimenting with the performance by adding a dramatic screech.

However, a new video shared via TikTok of Swift screaming again during one of her Warsaw, Poland, shows ended the speculation.
“HELP THE WAY TAYLOR SCREAMED AGAIN DURING WAOLOM THIS CANT BE FROM HER EARPIECE,” the TikTok user wrote.
In the comments, Swifties agreed the “scream” was an intentional part of the performance. One wrote, “I think she was going for her cute squeak, but it didn’t come out like that😅.”

Another agreed, commenting, “I kept saying that. It was just the squeak she does but it came out wrong. She wasn’t afraid. She didn’t almost fall.”
“I think she’s just being sassy, I love it🥰😍,” someone else shared.
One fan joked, “Who’s Afraid Of Little Old Me? (Featuring Bird From Is It Over Now?),” while another quipped, “Its giving 1989 seagull😍💪💪.”
Someone else quoted the song’s lyrics, writing, “LIKE A RECORD SCRATCH AS I SCREAM.”
Another agreed, pointing out, “I think it’s supposed to be like a record scratch.”
After finishing up three back-to-back shows in Warsaw, Poland, Swift will take her Eras Tour to Vienna, Austria, on Aug. 8, 9 and 10. The wildly popular tour ends in Vancouver in December.
