Taylor Swift Accidentally Swallows a Bug During Eras Tour in Chicago

Taylor Swift accidentally swallowed a bug during her Eras Tour show in Chicago, Illinois, on Sunday June 4.

The ‘bad bug’ flew into the pop star’s mouth while she was talking to the crowd in-between songs during her Evermore album set.

Video taken by Christina shows Swift in shock, coughing and joking with the crowd.

“Oh delicious, oh god, is there any chance that none of you saw that?” Swift says.

“It’s fine, it’s all, it’s… I’ve swallowed it. Ok so, I’m just going to try not to do as many of those… This is going to happen again tonight, there’s so many bugs, there’s thousands of them,” she laughs.

Christina told Storyful she was “straight up cackling” at the moment.

“Like “welcome to the Midwest, girlie!!!” she said. Credit: @thefunofyou13 via Storyful
