Taylor Swift Has To Ditch Rain-Damaged Piano During Concert After It Starts Playing On Its Own

Taylor Swift was visibly startled on stage during her 'Eras Tour' show as her keyboard started playing notes on its own after it was damaged during a very wet show in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Taylor Swift powered through an entire concert during a downpour at her Foxborough, Massachusetts show over the weekend and showed up to do it again the very next night.

And while TSwift walked away from the previous night's dramatic rainfall unscathed and unbothered, her piano was singing a different tune... and on its very own, at that.


Swift even thanked her fans via Instagram for literally braving the storm, calling them an "iconic crowd."

And while less than ideal weather certainly wasn't on the set list, what happened the following night was something even TSwift couldn't shake off.

During Sunday night's show, as Swift sat down to play her upright floral-embellished piano, it began to play notes all by itself.

Clearly startled, she asked the crowd:

“Do you hear that!? Is that happening for you, too!?”

She then went on to explain that the previous night's rain likely damaged the keyboard as it was "literally under water," as she described.

Swift continued:

“I didn’t know how any of the instruments were working last night."

Ever-so-flawlessly, though, the "Red" singer switched over to her guitar to perform the number.

You can watch the moment below.

People on social media chimed in.

Some think maybe something else was going on...



And everyone applauded her for trekking on despite the hiccup.



A few also wondered if perhaps Swift was caught using a little musical assistance.





Whatever the cause may have been - we're going with the rain, - Swift pulled it off like a champ. Her piano, however, may have seen its last stage.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
