<p>Fans of global pop superstar Taylor Swift indeed had the best days of their lives in the past months as they attended her massive The Eras Tour concert that already reached four continents.

Even though she was all by herself, she imparted not feeling alone during the concert as the illustrious singer-songwriter’s songs and the warm presence of the Swifties kept her company.</p><p>The <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/itsshowtime" target="_blank"><strong><em><u>It’s Showtime</u></em></strong></a> host wrote in an IG post, “It was a fun and unforgettable experience!!! I met new people with whom we shared the same fan girl stories!”</p><div> </div><div><strong>Criza Taa</strong></div><p>While we aren’t sure yet if she already has a lover, Criza apparently had a memorable “love month.” And one of the things that made her heart full was going to Japan not just to have a quick vacation, but to also attend the Tokyo stop of the “The Eras Tour.” In her recent vlog, she shared that it was the first-ever concert that she attended in her entire life.</p><p>The <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/zoomers-youtube-online-views-reaches-more-than-2m-21571" target="_blank"><strong><u>Zoomers</u></strong></a> star came with her bestie and fellow Swiftie, content creator Esnyr Ranollo, who shared on Instagram that they were sobbing, crying, and screaming their hearts out during the event that was “definitely one for the books”.</p><div> </div><div><strong>Ivana Alawi</strong></div><p>Far from the shabby, oversized tops that she wears in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/batangquiapo" target="_blank"><em><strong><u>FPJ’s Batang Quiapo</u></strong></em></a> as she plays the boyish Bubbles, Ivana was in her “soft girl era” as <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/articles-news/ivana-enjoys-singapore-trip-taylor-swift-concert-with-siblings-raffle-winner-21886" target="_blank"><strong><u>she donned a sexy floral mini dress when she attended Taylor’s concert in Singapore</u></strong></a> together with her siblings Hash and Mona and Hash’s girlfriend Alexis.</p><p>Aside from being able to fulfill their own dreams of watching Taylor perform live, Ivana also extended that rare opportunity to Hannah, the lucky fan who won the giveaway she launched last February. She granted her an all-expense paid trip to Singapore to attend one of the shows with them.</p><div> </div><div><strong>Janine Gutierrez</strong></div><p>It seems that one of Janine’s favorite hits of Taylor Swift is “Shake It Off” as she wore a preppy cheerleader costume similar to what the latter donned in the music video when she attended one of her Singapore shows. And the <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/dirtylinen" target="_blank"><em><strong><u>Dirty Linen</u></strong></em></a> actress wasn’t alone in this experience that she described as “once in a lifetime”, as she came with her siblings Diego, Max, and Jessica, and a couple of friends.</p><div> </div><div><strong>Jane de Leon</strong></div><p>The one-year wait to watch the “The Eras Tour,” as well as the challenges that she had to go through before getting on board, was definitely all worth it for Jane as she finally got to see Taylor in one of her Singapore shows early this March.</p><p>“I had the incredible opportunity to witness Taylor Swift’s electrifying live onstage performance. Taylor and her music were both enchanting. It was surreal. <em>Nakakaiyak</em> and overwhelming at the same time,” the <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/darna" target="_blank"><em><strong><u>Mars Ravelo’s Darna</u></strong></em></a> star wrote in one of her posts.</p><div> </div><div><strong>Michelle Vito</strong></div><p>Another Kapamilya actress to catch one of the Tokyo shows of Taylor last February was Michelle, who really looked gorgeous in the lavender ensemble that she was cladded in. Just like her fellow Swifties, she disclosed that her heart is also “so happy *crying*” to finally see her favorite popstar in the flesh.</p><p>And she wasn’t alone in this wonderful experience for she was accompanied by her ever-supportive boyfriend Enzo Pineda, who didn’t just match her purple concert suit, but also exert the effort to memorize the lyrics to the crowd-favorite “Cruel Summer” (the epic bridge to be exact!).</p><div> </div><div><strong>Jayda Avanzado</strong></div><p>She may have gone abroad a number of times already, but Jayda shared that the “The Eras Tour” was the first-ever concert that she watched in another country. And just like most of her fellow Swifties, she arrived at the Singapore National Stadium in an outfit inspired by one of Taylor’s looks. Making the once-in-a-lifetime experience extra fun for her was the company of her friends Mimiyuuuh and Elha Nympha.</p><p>“I loved walking in the stadium, surrounded by fellow swifties, and just getting to be a fan,” Jayda captioned one of her posts.</p><p>What about you, Kapamilya? Do you also fancy watching the “The Eras Tour” concert of Taylor Swift?</p>
