'This is so so cool': Swifties hail Sao Paulo Eras Tour crowd for creating light display that left Taylor Swift amazed

The colorful light display idea originated on X, sparking creativity among Taylor Swift's fans

SAO PAULO, BRAZIL: On the second night of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour in Sao Paulo, a multitude of her fans expressed their Brazilian spirit in a unique and creative manner.

Using their cellphone flashlights and colored cellophane, the audience illuminated the venue with the vibrant colors of blue, yellow, and green, capturing the attention of the pop star. Swift acknowledged this during her monologue before performing 'Champagne Problems'.

An X (formerly Twitter) account named 'The Eras Tour' wrote, "That’s innovative. That’s sophisticated. That’s creative."

Perfect synchronization of colors and lights 

Leonardo Ulths De Carvalho, an attendee of the Allianz Parque stadium show, shared the origin of the colorful display, revealing that it originated on X.

"It started on Twitter," said Leonardo Ulths De Carvalho.

He continued, "The color is made with cellophane paper, a very thin colored plastic. It's folded and then placed in the cell phone case over the flashlight."

The vibrant presentation was orchestrated through the X account @ErasLightsBr

To ensure that everyone could participate in the colorful display, the organizers took to X and shared the designated colors for fans who didn't have cellophane. The tweet, in Portuguese, translated to: "Didn't receive paper? Put this image on your phone when you see all the colorful flashes lit up! Note: Upper level: GREEN. Lower level: YELLOW. Floor: BLUE."

In contrast to the coordinated cellophane display, concertgoers were equipped with wrist lights provided by the organizers. These wrist lights were synchronized to produce various images and colors corresponding to different songs.

For instance, during 'You Need to Calm Down' song, the entire crowd's wrists illuminated in a spectacular rainbow, while during 'Look What You Made Me Do', a snake visually slithered through the stadium, adding an extra layer of dynamic visuals to the live experience.

'Today is even more beautiful'

Several people have taken to X to commend the memorable and visually stunning performances, marked by creative fan engagements and vibrant displays. 

While user wrote, "Brazil has really gone above and beyond during the Eras Tour."

Another quipped, "Look how creative Brazil has been with their flag projects."

Another commented, posting a beautiful picture, "Today is even more beautiful."

A fan commented, "Is this planned by the venue itself or did the people plan this together? This is so so cool."

Wrapping up the 2023 leg of the Eras Tour, Taylor Swift is set to perform one final night in Sao Paulo on November 26.
