Taylor Swift has pretty much perfected the art of touring, in fact, the only on-stage flaw the pop country songstress may have is getting a little too into the performance.
At a recent stadium show at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh, Swift admitted to chipping her tooth when she accidentally hit herself in the face with her own microphone.
“Tonight I was particularly hung up on not chipping another tooth like last show in Pittsburgh, definitely,” the 23-year-old said during a Rolling Stone interview backstage at a New Jersey tour stop. “It had a tip on [the tooth] and it doesn't anymore. I try to be really quick with the microphone, so I'm not standing there just waiting to sing with my mic right next to my face, so I really quickly pulled my mic up to sing and basically uppercut punched myself in the tooth.
“And then part of it fell onto the stage and I was like, ‘Oh, I wonder how bad that was. I wonder which tooth that is and I wonder how bad that is,’” she continued, adding that’s she’s not actually that worried about her dental dilemma. “I'm not doing anything about it. It's just gonna be a little bit jagged, I guess.
Swift, who has already done 45 shows as part of her “Red” tour, also admitted that she has to be careful about getting distracted mid-performance.
“Sometimes I get really caught up in reading the signs, and if I get too caught up I will start to read the signs when I'm singing, so I have to make sure I'm only reading signs in musical breaks,” the songstress shared of the fan-made creations. “[The signs] are all pretty out there most of the time, which I like. There will be people who just make a giant, huge picture of my cat's face, so big that it's all I can see, and that usually gets my attention. My cat out there, giant photocopy of her, eight foot by eight foot.”
