Taylor Swift's fans have her back — and it seems she has theirs.

During her two-night Eras tour stint in Philadelphia, fan footage appeared to show the "Midnights" singer shouting at security to defend a concert-goer midway through a performance.

Several clips of Swift shouting into the crowd while she sings "Bad Blood" at Lincoln Financial Field stadium began circulating on Twitter and TikTok Saturday. Twitter user Nicolle Bradford shared a 25-second clip of the interaction, and it has already had more than 1.6 million views Sunday.

In the video, Swift, dressed in a sparkly two-piece ensemble, nears the chorus of "Bad Blood" when she appears to pick out something happening in the crowd.

Swift appears to gesture multiple times in an attempt to diffuse the situation below her, and she breaks away from the lyrics to shout: "She's fine. She wasn't doing anything!"

It's not clear from the clip exactly what was happening, but several social-media accounts have speculated that it was an interaction between a fan and a security guard gone wrong.

The fan account @theerastour on Twitter reshared Bradford's video. In the caption, it said that the clip showed Swift "trying to stop a situation from further arising between security and some fans at tonight's show."

Some fans on Twitter said the interaction was proof that Swift looks out for her fans. One wrote: "The way she looks out for us," adding a sad face.

Others pointed out that it's rare to see Swift let anything interrupt her performances. "I've literally never seen Taylor interfere with security/fans like this before. It must have been really serious," one user wrote.

"Taylor is never the type to let things interrupt her performance so i know SOMETHING was going down," another user commented.
