Taylor Swift seemingly fired back at Dave Grohl's insinuation that her Eras Tour concerts aren't fully live. During her third show at London's Wembley Stadium on June 23, Swift took a moment to emphasize the live aspect of her performances, praising her band and crew for their dedication and energy.

The subtle clap back came after Grohl, during the Foo Fighters' London concert the previous night, jokingly referred to their own tour as the "Errors Tour" due to their live performances' imperfections. He then added, "That's because we actually play live," seemingly taking a jab at Swift's elaborate stage production.

Swift, however, made it clear that her band and crew are very much live, highlighting their 3.5-hour performance at Wembley and encouraging the crowd to cheer for their hard work. This subtle response was met with enthusiastic applause from the audience.

The incident followed a previous moment during Swift's Friday concert where she paused the show to ensure the safety of a fan, further emphasizing her commitment to live interaction and the well-being of her audience.

Swift's Wembley Stadium concert also featured a surprise appearance by her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, who joined her onstage during the "Tortured Poets Department" segment, adding an unexpected twist to the night's performance.

With five more Eras Tour concerts scheduled for Wembley Stadium in August, fans eagerly anticipate more unforgettable moments and perhaps further subtle responses to Grohl's comments.
