\n\tTaylor Swift<\/a> didn\u2019t let an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction throw her off during a third sold-out show at Est\u00e1dio Nilton Santos in Rio de Janiero on Monday night (Nov. 20). According to videos posted by fans, Swift soldiered on after the heel broke off of one of her glittery Christian Louboutin boots. Welcoming the fans to the international Eras Tour date \u2014 in Portuguese no less \u2014 Swift pulled a real-life Barbie<\/em> act by holding the back of her right foot up as if her feet were in permanent high-heel position before diving into \u201cLover.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAccording to EW<\/a><\/em>, it was not clear how or when the heel broke, but it seemed to be missing during her run through \u201cThe Man\u201d in an earlier portion of the Lover<\/em> set. In another video, Swift appears to pull the busted heel off and toss it to the side<\/a> before getting back to business. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe Monday night gig was a make-up for Saturday\u2019s show at the same venue, which was postponed due to a brutal heatwave hanging over the nation. The rescheduled gig meant that Swift could not be on hand to watch beau Travis Kelce\u2019s Kansas City Chiefs face off against the tight end\u2019s brother, Jason Kelce and his Philadelphia Eagles in their eagerly anticipated Monday Night Football<\/em> showdown.<\/p>\n

\n\tSaturday night\u2019s show was postponed due to safety concerns over \u201cextreme temperatures\u201d in Rio that topped 100 degrees Fahrenheit. \u201cI\u2019m writing this from my dressing room in the stadium,\u201d Swift shared in a handwritten note on her\u00a0Instagram Story<\/a>\u00a0Saturday. \u201cThe decision has been made to postpone tonight\u2019s show due to the extreme temperatures in Rio. The safety and well-being of my fans, fellow performers, and crew has to and always will come first.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tThe night before, Swift expressed her sorrow<\/a>\u00a0in a post over the loss of 23-year-old fan Ana Clara Benevides Machado, who died after attending the opening night of the singer\u2019s Eras Tour in Rio. The woman was treated by paramedics after she reported not feeling well and was later taken to a hospital, where she died, according to an\u00a0Instagram<\/a>\u00a0post by T4T; Machado\u2019s cause of death has not yet been revealed.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI can\u2019t believe I\u2019m writing these words but it is with a shattered heart that I say we lost a fan earlier tonight before my show,\u201d Swift wrote on Instagram. \u201cI can\u2019t even tell you how devastated I am by this. There\u2019s very little information I have other than the fact that she was so incredibly beautiful and far too young.\u201d<\/p>\n
