Taylor Swift Meets Fan Backstage Who Fell Ill During Concert
Taylor Swift poses for a photo with a fan backstage at her Reputation Tour stop last week in Denver, Colo.
The 10-year-old fan named Alexis was enjoying the first song after Taylor took the stage when she suffered a seizure.
“Taylor‘s mom saw the paramedics carrying Alexis. She came running over, grabbed [Alexis' older sister] Kelsey asking what was going on, then came to me, told me who she was and I broke down crying on her boob of all places,” Alexis‘ mom Karen told Just Jared in a statement.
Taylor met Alexis backstage after the concert, gave her a hug, and gifted her a bunch of cool swag, including a Reputation Tour sweater that she rehearsed in and the blanket she kept in her dressing room.
“I’m thankful for Taylor‘s parents for being so concerned for her when they didn’t have to. I’m thankful for Taylor wanting to take the time to meet her and give her a hug,” Karen added.
