Written by Published

Taylor Swift delighted fans in Sydney, Australia, during her Friday night show by unveiling a new version of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department. Sitting at the piano, she introduced an alternate cover called "The Albatross," featuring an exclusive bonus song of the same name on the vinyl edition. The announcement thrilled the audience, setting the stage for a memorable evening.

Swift had more surprises in store, acknowledging her opening act, Sabrina Carpenter, who had to sacrifice her show due to the weather. In a gesture of appreciation, Swift invited Carpenter back on stage for a duet of "White Horse" and "Coney Island," much to the crowd's delight.

Among the 81,000 attendees at the Sydney stadium were Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and fellow singers Katy Perry and Rita Ora. Kelce, 34, was spotted cheering her on from a VIP tent, showcasing their support for one another's careers.

Prior to her Australian tour, Swift had attended the Super Bowl in Las Vegas to support Kelce before jetting off to Melbourne for sold-out shows. In Melbourne, she expressed gratitude to her fans, calling them the love of her life, and surprised the audience with a new version of her album during her acoustic set.

Between her Melbourne and Sydney shows, Swift enjoyed the sights of Australia, including a visit to the Sydney Zoo with her backup dancers. Reports also mentioned a day date with Kelce, including a private zoo tour, highlighting their quality time together amidst her busy schedule.
