Taylor Swift played her heart out at the very first concert of the Eros tour Friday night in Arizona, but admitted to some big emotions during the night.

The 33-year-old superstar oozed confidence as she sang and danced around the stage after some three years away from her last live show.

About an hour into her three hour performance, the 12-time Grammy winner spoke to the sold out audience at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona telling them ‘Is it just me or do we have a lot of things to catch up on? It’s been a really long time since I’ve been on tour.’

‘I can’t even go into how much I’ve missed you…because there’s no way to verbalize it,’ she explained from the stage in a video captured by one lucky attendee.

The hitmaker later went on to admit she was ‘really overwhelmed, and trying to keep it together all night.’

Confidence: Taylor Swift, 33, oozed confidence as she sang and danced around the stage after some three years away from her last live show, but the hitmaker admitted to some big emotions, telling her audience ‘really overwhelmed, and trying to keep it together all night’

Taylor kicked off the show wearing a a dazzling pink rhinestone leotard, standing tall in pair of silver sparkling boots, which she wore with fishnet stockings.

The chart topper belted out songs such as Miss Americana & The Heartbreak Prince, Cruel Summer and You Need to Calm Down from the Lover era.

The show ended up featuring a staggering 44 songs throughout the evening, including the extended 10-minute version of All Too Well, which was featured as a bonus track on the rerecorded version of her hit album Red.

In total, she performed for 3 hours and 15 minutes.

Although her new Midnights songs got, including Anti-Hero, Lavender Haze and Mastermind significant spots in the setlist, Taylor made sure to play some of her recent tunes from her surprise releases from the Folklore and Evermore eras.

One of her sets featured a see-through cabin that she sat upon while singing, which was reminiscent of a set design she previously employed.

Songs in that set included Betty, Invisible String, and other tunes from the Folklore album.

She also showed off some of her guitar-playing skills with an acoustic version of her song Mirrorball.

Megastar: Swift worked her costume with confidence as she blew fans away with her opening number

Fans of Taylor’s earlier country music got a special treat toward the end of her show when she performed an acoustic version of her first-ever single, Tim McGraw, which became a top 40 hit.

The massive launch comes after Ticketmaster’s catastrophic pre-sale debacle, which left pre-verified fans waiting in a virtual line for hours and others unable to purchase tickets at all.

The organization finally apologized to Swift and her fans, citing bot attacks and massive demand as the culprits.

The controversy triggered a lawsuit from fans and a furious response from Swift herself.

Fans who were successful in getting tickets also complained about the exorbitant prices, which were due to Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing scheme, which raises the prize significantly when demand is high.

Other major artists including Bruce Springsteen have also been lambasted for letting the ticket seller boost the price of their tickets, which priced out many working class fans.

Fortunately, Swift still had reason to celebrate last month after she made history at the Grammys yet again.

Swift won Best Music Video for her romantic drama, All Too Well: The Short Film making her the first person to win the category with a sole directing credit for their own music video.

‘I can’t put into words what this means to me. For The Recording Academy and my peers to acknowledge me as a director, and in doing so, acknowledge my work to try and reclaim my music… I’m blown away,’ Swift tweeted after the victory.

The Look What You Made Me Do singer also thanked ‘fans who willed this to happen.’

Taylor was scheduled to play in Glendale, at the stadium briefly renamed ‘Swift City’ in her honor again Saturday.

She is set to take the stage in Las Vegas the following weekend, before heading off to Arlington, Texas and Tampa Florida for a series of dates there.

It marked Swift’s 12th Grammy Award, after earning 46 nods through her career, which has spanned multiple genres and made her arguably the most famous pop star.

Over the past few years, Swift has begun to spend more time behind the camera as the sole director of her music videos The Man (2019), Cardigan (2020), Willow (2020), Anti-Hero (2022) and Bejeweled (2022).

In December, she announced her plans to direct her first feature for an original script that she wrote.

Her project will be produced by Searchlight Pictures, which is the studio behind a number of critically-acclaimed flicks, including Nomadland and The Shape of Water.
