Taylor Swift Fan Wears Cape Highlighting Her Billboard Hot 100 Record to Paris Eras Show
The pop star recently became the first artist to simultaneously occupy the top 14 spots on the chart.

Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour has officially resumed, meaning Swifties are back to getting creative with their concert gear. And one fan in particular really understood the assignment at the pop star’s first show back in Paris on Thursday night (May 9), sporting a homemade cape showing off her recent Billboard Hot 100 record.
As captured in pictures by passerby fans at La Defense in Paris, the unknown Swiftie’s cape is so long, it touches the ground. The accessory boasts a screenshot of the Hot 100 chart as it was the week of May 4, 2024, when Swift became the first artist in history to occupy the top 14 spots of the chart.

All 14 of those songs were from the singer’s latest album The Tortured Poets Department, which dropped April 19 and has spent two weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 so far. The LP’s lead single “Fortnight” featuring Post Malone began at the top of the Hot 100, followed by “Down Bad,” “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart,” “The Tortured Poets Department,” “So Long, London,” “My Boy Only Breaks His Favorite Toys,” “But Daddy I Love Him, “Florida!!!,” “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?,” “Guilty as Sin?,” “Fresh Out the Slammer,” “Loml,” “The Alchemy” and “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived.”
In achieving the milestone, Swift broke her own record set with 2022’s Midnights, which made her the first artist to ever occupy all of the top 10 simultaneously. (And yes, someone also wore a cape reflecting that accolade to an earlier Eras show.)
The Paris show follows a two-month pause Swift took from touring to promote and release Tortured Poets. After three more performances at La Defense, she’ll travel through Spain, Sweden, Portugal, the U.K. and more.
