00:00 Taylor Swift has postponed her concert in Rio de Janeiro after a fan died at her Eras

00:05 tour

00:06 These are some of Taylor Swift's saddest moments of her life.

00:10 There was a fan that passed away at her Eras tour.

00:15 Taylor Swift is mourning the loss of a fan who died before her show in Rio de Janeiro,

00:20 Brazil.

00:21 During Taylor Swift's Eras tour show in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in November 2023, a fan

00:27 video surfaced online revealing Taylor Swift appearing to struggle for breath after performing

00:32 "Bejeweled".

00:39 Following this, Taylor Swift announced the next day that she would be postponing her

00:43 concert and this was to prioritize the safety of her fans as well as her fellow performers

00:49 and the crew.

00:51 This decision was influenced by the unfortunate incident involving Ana Clara Benavidez.

00:59 She was a woman who attended Taylor Swift's concert and later experienced cardiac arrest

01:05 due to extreme temperatures leading to her passing.

01:15 Ana had documented her excitement for the Eras tour on social media, showcasing the

01:21 hours that she spent waiting in line for a good spot in the stadium.

01:29 There was also the incident involving Kanye West back in 2009.

01:34 While Taylor Swift bore no wrongdoing, this moment triggered a chain of unfortunate events

01:40 for her.

01:41 What marked the beginning of a major feud between Taylor and Kanye and other celebrities

01:46 saw it as an opportunity to engage in some drama with Taylor Swift as well.

01:52 During the VMA Awards back in 2009, Kanye West stormed the stage while Taylor Swift

01:58 was delivering her acceptance speech for Best Female Video.

02:02 And he grabbed the microphone from her and pretty much said that Beyonce deserved to

02:06 win the award instead of her.

02:09 Ouch.

02:10 Taylor was understandably left speechless and

02:20 shocked as Kanye West interrupted her glory moment, robbing her of the joy of winning

02:26 the award.

02:27 While Kanye West did later admit in an interview that his actions were wrong, the damage was

02:32 already done.

02:33 Taylor Swift had a documentary also and it was called Miss Americana.

02:38 In it, Taylor Swift opens up about her struggles with body image.

02:42 She candidly expresses her seeing pictures of herself daily actually affects her negatively.

02:49 Taylor in her own words admits, and I quote, "It's not good for me to see pictures

02:53 of myself every day."

02:55 And this revealed that she often gets triggered by comments or images where she feels criticized

03:00 for her appearance, leading her to adopt unhealthy habits like restricting her food intake.

03:08 She reflects on the pressures of achieving the ideal body of a woman and calling it effing

03:14 impossible.

03:16 Over time, Taylor Swift has gained a healthier perspective on things and is now content with

03:21 being a size 6 instead of aiming to be a size 0.

03:24 Something else that Taylor Swift experienced was her mother's cancer diagnosis.

03:28 And she actually sang about it through her song Soon You'll Get Better on her album

03:33 Lover.

03:39 And in the track, she shares that her mother's illness served as a big wake up call and it

03:45 shifted her perspective away from trivial concerns that she had.

03:49 Taylor Swift reflects on the profound impact of her mom undergoing chemotherapy and she

03:56 started to question the significance of online opinions that people had of her and maybe

04:01 online opinions that she had of some people.

04:06 When you compare it to a loved one's health crisis, it's nothing in comparison to that.

04:11 The lyrics convey the deep emotional journey spawned by the challenges of dealing with

04:16 her mom's sickness.

04:17 So yeah, major turning point for Taylor Swift.

04:20 Also in another sad moment during a rainy concert in Tampa, Taylor Swift performed the

04:25 song Clean from her 1989 album.

04:28 And this performance marked the one year anniversary of her SA court case.

04:34 Taylor Swift reflected on the huge impact of the trial where she accused DJ David Mueller

04:40 of touching her in a very dehumanizing way during a meet and greet.

04:46 Despite facing a lawsuit from DJ David Mueller, well Taylor Swift, she countersued for $1.

04:54 This was just a symbolic action though.

04:56 And she actually won.

04:58 She wasn't trying to get money, she was just trying to make a point here to say that this

05:01 was not okay.

05:02 Because this experience left a lasting imprint on Taylor Swift, leading her to acknowledge

05:07 that certain things become unchangeably different after going through something like this.

05:15 This was a brief look at some of the saddest moments of Taylor Swift's life.
