Critics and Fans alike Question Taylor Swift’s Dance Moves as She Grooves in Fringed Dress in Edinburgh

Even some of Taylor Swift’s biggest fans have poked fun at her dancing skills recently. A video posted by @harryalex98 went viral showing the Pennsylvania native awkwardly shaking her hips while performing at the Scottish Gas Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh last week. Dressed in a fringed gold mini dress and white boots, Swift grooved to the song Fearless with a Las Vegas showgirl vibe, although her moves appeared stiff and uncoordinated. Despite the criticism, Swift seemed unfazed and simply seemed to be having fun on stage. Some critics went as far as comparing her to a ‘grandma’ and suggested she should consider taking dancing lessons. Swift’s upcoming last Eras Tour show is scheduled for December 8 in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

Taylor Swift 's dancing skills have been mocked by even some of her most enthusiastic fans. A clip from @harryalex98 has gone viral of the singer shaking her hips in an unflattering way when on stage in Edinburgh last week; seen in the same gold dress on June 2 in Lyon

Fans of Taylor Swift have poked fun at her dancing abilities, with one particular video by @harryalex98 gaining popularity online. The clip shows the singer awkwardly moving her hips on stage in Edinburgh, wearing the same gold dress she wore in Lyon on June 2.

The 34-year-old Pennsylvania native had on a fringed gold mini dress with white boots as she moved to the song Fearless. Though Swift tried her best to seem like a Las Vegas showgirl, her moves were wooden and awkward at best, though she didn't seem to care as she was just playing around

The 34-year-old woman from Pennsylvania was dressed in a fringed gold mini dress paired with white boots as she danced to the tune of Fearless. Despite her attempt to channel a Las Vegas showgirl, her movements appeared stiff and clumsy, but she didn’t seem to mind as she was just having fun. She recently expressed her gratitude to fans for attending her shows in Liverpool, where she performed her 100th show on the Eras Tour. Swift claimed to have broken the stadium’s attendance record, which previously stood at 61,905 fans dating back to 1952. According to reports, there were at least 62,000 fans present during the first performance. Reflecting on the experience on Instagram, she shared, “So many incredible memories from Liverpool! Playing our 100th show on The Eras Tour feels surreal because this performance feels fresh every time we do it. A big thank you to our Eras Tour team, fellow performers, and band who have dedicated countless hours to putting on this show and giving their all on and off stage.”

Taylor has never pushed herself as a top dancer; rather she is more adept at her songwriting and singing skills

Taylor has never positioned herself as a standout dancer; instead, she excels in her abilities as a songwriter and singer.

I am constantly amazed by the incredible work ethic, creativity, and dedication that surrounds me every single day.

The crowds at all three Liverpool shows were absolutely amazing, full of energy, generosity, and endless fun.

A huge thank you to everyone who attended this weekend and helped us break the all-time stadium attendance record! And a heartfelt thanks to all those who have come out to any of the shows on The Eras Tour. Your support has truly made this experience a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Next up, Swift will be performing at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on Tuesday, followed by Wembley Stadium in London from Friday to Sunday. The tour will return to London in August to conclude the UK and European leg, with estimates suggesting it could bring up to £1 billion to the UK economy.

Last year, the tour made history by becoming the first to surpass the billion-dollar mark, according to Pollstar’s 2023 year-end charts. It’s been an incredible journey, and I am grateful for every moment spent on stage during the Eras Tour, with memories made at iconic venues like Murrayfield Stadium in Edinburgh.
