Fury as Taylor Swift fans throw objects at her forcing star to cower at concert

Taylor Swift was seen cowering as she was forced to take cover when fans threw objects at her during her Eras Tour.

In a new video shared on TikTok, Taylor was seen coming off stage as she was surrounded by security guards. The crowd went wild as she walked past, with fans shouting to her from above.

Some fans were then spotted throwing objects at Taylor while her security team tried to bat them away. The 33-year-old was seen ducking out the way of the falling items.

In the comments section, the original poster explained: "To clarify: I didn’t throw any bracelets at her. I know people are stitching this and saying their piece."

Fans were left furious by the small minority of people being "disrespectful" to Taylor by throwing things at her.

"Nah they call themselves swifties while throwing things at her is extremely disrespectful," one furious fan wrote.

Another person wrote: "Have you not seen all the artists getting hurt by fans throwing things at them? I'm sure she's scared of this. Don't throw things at her!"

"Y'all. If she’s not looking, she ain’t gonna catch it. Stop freaking our girl out!" a third fan insisted. Someone else commented: "She could get hurt, don't do this guys."

Other fans suggested performers might be put off touring if similar incidents keep happening.

"Since that #BebeRexhar incident these concerts are never been the same. Throwing things at celebs has become a Nasty Trend. I mean What on earth is wrong with this morons," one fan said.

Taylor is yet to address the incident.

She is the latest musician to fall victim to this bizarre trend of having to dodge items thrown at them while performing live. Both Harry Styles and Bebe Rexha were recently whacked in the face while on stage.

After sharing pictures of her bruised eye on Instagram, Bebe Rexha went to drastic measures to make sure she wasn't hit again and was seen wearing protective glasses at one of her later shows.

Ava Max was also slapped by concert-goer during one of her concerts, while Drake was left shocked when a fan threw a phone at him during a show in Chicago. Adele has even issued a stark warning to fans to stop throwing things at performers.

One expert told The Mirror that "extreme fandom" is to blame for these physical attacks.

Senior therapist & relationship expert Sally Baker from Working On The Body said: "Fandom, extreme fandom is kind of fuelled by social media these days.

"There can be a growing expectation that there are no boundaries between fans, and the people that they adore [and] the people they go to concerts to watch, because they’re on social media all the time and it doesn’t feel like they’re separate people.

"And it makes some people feel entitled that they can do anything they want to these popstars, and even hurt them."
