Taylor Swift says her Paris show is ‘female rage, the musical’ as she adds songs like I Can Do It With A Broken Heart to her latest Eras Tour stop

Taylor Swift has returned to the road to continue her The Eras tour and she’s shaken up the setlist.

The 34-year-old pop star took a break from the tour this year releasing her 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department during her two months off.

And she has now added a new segment of the show dedicated to the record which she debuted at her comeback gig at La Défense Arena in Paris, France on Thursday night.

During the show, Taylor jokingly referred to the new segment as ‘Female rage, the musical’ – seemingly referring to the lyrics which rake over her past relationships.

The new section includes songs from the album which were performed live for the first time in Paris.

Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour trailer teases arrival on Disney+

The Eras tour kicked off in March, 2023 in Glendale, Arizona and Taylor will perform 152 stadium dates across the globe before wrapping the shows in Vancouver, Canada in December.

Ticket sale revenues are projected to hit around $1.4 billion.

That would make The Eras the most profitable tour ever ahead of Sir Elton John’s lengthy farewell tour which spanned several years and brought in around $939 million.

This comes after Caleb Followill praised Swift for inspiring a new generation of musicians.

The Kings of Leon frontman has Dixie, 11, and Winston, five, with wife Lily Aldridge and though his children have always been aware of his own group’s work, it is the ‘Karma’ hitmaker that has made his daughter ‘see music differently’.

He told The Sun newspaper: ‘Dixie started wearing Kings Of Leon shirts around the house, but Taylor has made her see music differently.

‘She’s impressed how she can walk in with a guitar and write a song. A new generation are discovering what it’s like to organically make music because of Taylor Swift.’

Caleb’s children inspired the group’s latest single ‘Mustang’.

Taylor Swift meets one lucky fan at each Eras Tour concert

He explained: ‘My son was wearing a shirt that said Mustang, while my daughter was watching YouTube videos of cats — that’s where the line ‘Are you a Mustang or a kitty’ comes from.

‘My son hadn’t really reacted to our music before, so I put Mustang in the song to make him flip his s***. Now friends’ kids always say, ‘Play the Mustang song’, so if nothing else, kids love it.’

The band – comprising Caleb, his brothers Nathan, and Jared Followill and their cousin Matthew Followill – will tour the UK in June and are excited to get their families together.

Jared, whose wife Martha gave birth to their second daughter Charlotte just a few days ago, said: ‘I’m bringing my family over. We are all renting houses.

‘I’m excited that the kids are all meeting up and the cousins can all go to the pub and get drunk for the first time as they don’t check IDs in the UK.’

The ‘Sex on Fire’ hitmakers admitted their tours these days are much calmer than in their early days, where their drunken fights were notorious.

Caleb said: ‘We try to avoid being on the road for three months at a time.

‘When we were starting, we were like zombies and living on buses and in each other’s hair.’

Jared added: ‘It was crazy. How did we survive that?

‘But we’re healthy adults and in a good place. It’s boring, and people want us to still be fighting and drunk.’
