TAYLOR Swift’s fans were left bewildered by a strange shadowy figure dancing in the rafters at her Madrid concert.
A dark silhouette was spotted near the top of the stadium at the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu in the Spanish capital.

Fans had plenty of theories about who the figure could be and shared their speculation on X, formerly Twitter.
One joked that someone who “didn’t want to pay for a ticket” had “snuck into the stadium.”
Others wondered if it was Taylor‘s boyfriend, Travis Kelce, or her rivals Kanye West and Nicki Minaj.
“Knowing Taylor Swift, she’s probably behind this and she’s teasing something,” another claimed.
“This is so creepy,” someone else wrote.
“Dancing phantoms on the terrace,” one user claimed, quoting a line from her song loml from her new album, The Tortured Poets Department.
One concertgoer appeared to clear up the rumors, insisting the figure was part of the crew.
“It was literally a security man, I was near to that section and he was standing there and checking on us all the time,” they posted.
Taylor played in Madrid last Wednesday and Thursday as part of her worldwide Eras tour.
From there, she jetted to France and her next stop is Edinburgh in Scotland.
The 161-show tour began in March 2023, in the US and will end on December 8, 2024, in Canada.
Taylor has pulled out all the stops for her sell-out shows.
The singer has spent $300,000 on “five-star” catering, the U.S. Sun exclusively revealed last week.
The Grammy winner dished out $20,000 on paella, $2,500 on cheese, and thousands more on wine for her team of 300 people.
Get your tickets to see Taylor Swift
If you haven’t yet got your tickets to see Taylor Swift on her worldwide Eras tour, there’s still time:
Before purchasing tickets on resale websites check pricing as they are third-party sellers and, importantly, the cost can vary depending on demand. You may pay more than an official ticket, though you can also get good last-minute deals too.
The U.S. Sun also revealed she spent $4.3 million on hair, makeup, costumes, and wages for her backup dancers.
“We are like an army. But everyone involved loves this kind of challenge,” a consultant said about coordinating makeup and hair stylists for the European leg of the tour.
“With such long shows and changes in temperature and humidity, we are always having to adapt.”
10 makeup artists are working on the European stretch, earning around $65,000 each for three months of work, the source claimed.
The U.S. Sun previously revealed the cost of security for Taylor and her entourage is $30 million.
Insiders are claiming it’s the “largest and most expensive tour” of all time.
