Taylor Swift fans shared their horror after spotting a baby on the floor of her latest Paris concert.
The Blank Space singer, 34, is currently embarking on her mammoth Eras world tour, which comes to the UK this summer.
Fans fought hard to get their hands on coveted tickets to the show, with die-hard Swifties going to all lengths to make sure they could attend – including bringing their babies along.
Swift brought her show to Paris’ La Defense arena last night, with fans taking to social media to rave about her performance, as well as air their shock and horror over spotting a very small attendee in the crowd.
In a picture posted to X, a baby was spotted placed on the ground of the venue surrounded by a blanket and Swift merch.
The tot can be seen wearing ear defenders in the sold-out crowd, but many fans aired their concern that they were lying down and could go unnoticed among the 45,000 screaming fans at the show.

Many shared their ‘disgust’ over the actions and hoped the child left the show unscathed.
‘Get ur baby off the floor and GO HOME,’ whatamind13 posted alongside the pictures of the youngster, which has received hundreds of replies.
Posting a picture of the heaving crowd, she continued: ‘Just to paint the full picture this is general admission at the Paris show tonight… and that baby is somewhere in the floor AT THIS SHOW! Like WTF they have lost their minds! terrible parenting.’
Super_Gibby added: ‘This is so irresponsible and dangerous that I don’t even find it in me to make a joke about this I hope this baby was not harmed during the show and that someone reported the parent(s).’
ReadyForBritt pointed out: ‘All it takes is one misstep….. this angers me, idk why a parent would think this is ok!’
Many parents shared they ‘wouldn’t dream’ of taking their own baby to a concert of this size, while others wondered why the child wasn’t in a carrier of some form to keep them off the ground.
‘This is such bad parenting actually the floor for one is very dangerous and overwhelming plus gross and who knows what’s on the floor and being spread around from people,’ Folklorewoods13 wrote.
Stateofarabelle raged: ‘I hope someone reported it to security, not even grown adults are meant to sit/lie on the ground.’
MaddieThei went one further, posting: ‘This is absolutely insane and the parent(s) should be charged with something bc that cannot be legal.’
Others, however, were less condemning of the baby’s parents and thought attending the show would be a fun experience for the family.
KarenBa75442885 wrote: ‘I have no commitment about the baby, but As someone who has experienced a concert outside of Paris at Pink Floyd with 70,000 people in a cornfield. It was a new experience. No fights, nothing violent, no shooting of guns. It was calm, people were friendly and even during the Wave!! Gently… wave…the people were in harmony.

‘The vibe was perfect and amazing. No shoving to get on the metro, no pushing, no screaming or threats. Maybe, we should take note. A concert is about being with people of all walks of life, sharing some wonderful times and enjoying the music. After, everything we have go through in 4 years, can we all please work together and enjoy a special occasion.’
Big_veee added: ‘This baby is on a lavender haze cloud with ear muffs on passed the f**k out. It’s a Taylor Swift concert not a Slipknot concert. I would want to take a picture with the baby honestly. That cloud looks so comfy. Now I want a lavender haze cloud to sleep with.’
It’s not the first time a Swiftie has caused outrage for attending the Eras Tour after one fan missed their own aunt’s funeral to see The Tortured Poets Department star in Melbourne.
What’s more, she decided to inform her mother of the news during a horrifying live radio exchange.
The Eras tour comes to the UK on June 7 with shows in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff, London, and Dublin.
The mammoth show sees Swift take a trip through every ‘era’ of her career thus far, with fans recently sent into meltdown after setlist changes in Paris saw her combine Folklore and Evermore were combined into one era, known as the sisters’ era, while some fan favourite tracks didn’t make the cut.
