Thankfully the situation was not as serious as it appeared. After swallowing the bug, Swift quipped, “Oh, delicious!” causing her supporters to burst out laughing.

After that minor glitch during the performance, the rest of the night went smoothly as she wrapped up epic 3-day back-to-back concert performances in the Windy City.

On Friday, on the same stage,  Swift expressed her support for the LGBTQ community, emphasizing the importance of creating safe and celebratory spaces for individuals to live authentically.

“I’m looking out tonight and I’m seeing so many incredible individuals who are living authentically and beautifully, and this is safe space for you. This is a celebratory space for you,” she said. “So being with you during Pride month, getting to sing the word you need to calm down, where there are lyrics like ‘can you just not step on his gown,’ or ‘shade never made anybody less gay,’ and you guys are screaming those lyrics. The most beautiful experience for me is to look out. I wish that every place was so safe and beautiful for people in the LGBTQ community. We can’t talk about Pride without talking about pain. There have been so many harmful pieces of legislation that have put people in the LGBTQ community at risk. It’s painful for everyone, every ally, every loved one, every person in these communities and that’s why I’m always posting, ‘This is when the midterms are. This is when these important key primaries are.’”

“Because we can support as much as we want during Pride month, but if we’re not doing our research on these elected officials — are they advocates, are they allies, are they protectors of equality, ‘do I want to vote for them?’ I love you guys so much and happy Pride month,” she added.
