Taylor Swift’s fans left disgusted.

Even when you’re on a whirlwind global tour, the show must go on—even if you’re battling a cold.

This weekend, Taylor Swift’s dedication to her fans was on full display in Edinburgh, where the pop sensation continued performing despite some visible signs of a runny nose.

During her performance, some fans noticed Swift discreetly wiping her nose, possibly due to the cool 46.4°F temperature in the stadium.

In a viral clip, she was spotted wiping her nose and even brushing her hand across her skirt, sparking an array of reactions on social media.

Some admirers expressed empathy for her, while others shared critiques.

Many social media users weighed in, with one noting, “Someone, please get Taylor Swift some tissues! It’s wild how many times I’ve seen her wipe her nose.” Another fan defended her actions, “I’m not even a Swiftie, but I don’t get why people are mad at her for wiping her nose. What else was she supposed to do?” Others pointed out that, despite being unwell, she maintained her performance without missing a beat.

Swift’s UK leg kicked off with three sold-out shows in Edinburgh, marking her first Scottish appearance in years. S

he’ll then head to London for eight shows at Wembley Stadium, followed by dates in Cardiff and Liverpool. An estimated 720,000 fans are expected to attend the shows in London alone, and her presence in the UK is anticipated to contribute approximately £1 billion to the economy.

With ticket prices, travel, accommodations, and merchandise, each UK attendee is estimated to spend an average of £848 to see their idol perform.
