Taylor Swift became the latest star affected by concertgoers throwing things at performers on stage on Sunday when it happened during her “The Eras Tour” stop in Buenos Aires.
During the 33-year-old singer’s Argentina concert, Swift stopped her show to address fans after someone threw some kind of object on the stage while she was performing at the Mâs Monumental stadium, Business Insider reported.

“Just because communication means having gentle, healthy boundaries, it really freaks me out when stuff gets thrown on the stage,” Swift told the crowd.
“Because if it’s on the stage then a dancer can trip on it,” she added. “I love that you brought presents and that is so nice, but just, can you please not throw them on the stage? I love you so much.”
The “Shake It Off” hitmaker joins a growing list of entertainers who have made headlines after items were thrown onstage during performances.
Singer Bebe Rexha was struck in the face in June by a cell phone while performing in New York City. The 33-year-old posted two pictures on Instagram showing her injury. Her eye is purple and swollen in one photo, with a cut just underneath her brow line. In a more recent photo, she’s giving a thumbs up as her left eye is bruised dark purple with a bandage.
She captioned the post, “I’m good.”

Pink was recently performing at the British Summer Time Festival at Hyde Park in London when someone tossed a bag of alleged cremated remains on the stage in front of her.
The 43-year-old singer walked over to where the bag landed and held it up for a closer look, at which point she turned to address the fan who had thrown it: “Is this your mom?”
“I don’t know how I feel about this,” she added before continuing with the concert.
Harry Styles was hit with various objects several times during his “Love on Tour” performances. In November 2022, Styles was struck in the eye with Skittles candy and spent the rest of the show rinsing his eyes with water.
The candymaker later took out a full-page ad that said, “Protect the rainbow. Taste the rainbow. But please, don’t throw the rainbow.”
Adele and other performers have slammed the latest trend.
