Taylor Swift’s surprise secret note to diehard Aussie fans: ‘Deceased’

The megastar enlisted the help of her dad to deliver the experience of a lifetime to two dedicated Swifties in Melbourne.

Two very lucky Swifties have had the “best night” of their “whole lives” after receiving an unexpected personal invitation to Taylor Swift’s VIP tent in Melbourne, along with a personal handwritten note.

Australian YouTubers Emily Hunt and Bonny Rebecca, who run the popular Swift-reviewing Chats and Reacts channel, got the surprise of a lifetime after attending the show on Saturday.

The pair was invited back to watch Swift’s sold-out third performance Down Under from the VIP tent, joining the megastar’s closest friends and family.

At one point, the Lover singer’s father, Scott Swift, even personally delivered each of the bloggers a handwritten letter from his daughter – one of which was posted on X (formerly Twitter).

The letter read: “Emily, hi! I’m so grateful to you and Bonny for how much you’ve cared about my music, and all the times you’ve referred to it as ‘iconic’ and ‘immaculate’.

“You’ve made me laugh and made me feel understood many times with your reviews. I love your wild joy and enthusiasm. That’s why I do this!

“Have a blast tonight. Sending my love. Taylor. xoxo”

The ultra-fans later shared images from their unforgettable night on social media.

After three sold-out shows to her biggest audience ever – about 96,000 each night – Swift now has a four-day break from touring before Eras moves to Sydney’s Accor Stadium on Friday for a four-show stint.

She’s still only around halfway through the 151-show Eras tour though, which is currently scheduled to finish on December 8 in Vancouver, Canada.

While opening the second night of her Aussie run of shows, the All Too Well singer admitted she was still “trying to wrap” her mind around the huge turnout.

“What a joy and what an honour to say this words to you tonight, Melbourne, welcome to the Eras Tour,” she gushed.

“I am standing here on the stage, trying to wrap my mind around the fact that there are 96,000 people that wanted to hang out with us on a Saturday night.”

Swift added: “I feel like a contest winner, like I won a contest to get to have this memory of looking at you an singing with you … I’m having a very strange experience in my head.

“I don’t know if you know how many 96,000 is – like, if we were to start counting, we’d never get there.

“I am so grateful to you for wanting to spend this time with us, and just the passion I’m feeling from you already, I promise you – we are going to give you absolutely everything we have tonight.”
