Taylor Swift introduced a new version of The Tortured Poets Department at her Friday night gig in Sydney, Australia, and welcomed a surprise visitor on stage!

Speaking to fans as she sat at the piano during the event, the celebrity began by saying, according to a video published on X (previously known as Twitter), “It’s good to have options. Everyone likes options, you know.” I wanted to show you something if you could turn your attention to the big screen.”

“This is an alternate cover for The Tortured Poet’s Department,” she explained, as the audience roared when they saw the revised edition of the upcoming album on the huge screen behind her.

“And so this edition is called “The Albatross” because there is an exclusive bonus song on this vinyl called “The Albatross,” and I can’t wait for you to hear it.”

In addition to the big announcement, Swift had another surprise in store for her Sydney audience.

“I also have another fun thing if you want another fun thing,” Swift added. “Would you like another fun thing?”

Swift then stated that earlier in the evening she had been trying to “figure out this whole weather situation” — her show had been postponed due to rain and a nearby lightning strike — and that they only had “this window where the weather is going to be not crazy and dangerous.”

“My immensely talented, beautiful, attractive, hilarious, smart opening act, Sabrina Carpenter, bravely sacrificed her show, which I believe is a crime against Sydney. And I think it needs to be fixed, so I’m going to bring her out now; is that okay, Sydney?”

Swift was joined on stage by Carpenter, 24, who wore a silver little dress and white platform boots, as the audience yelled their delight, before the two duetted on a mix of “White Horse” and “Coney Island.”

Swift’s beau, Travis Kelce, was photographed cheering her on from a VIP tent and wearing a variety of friendship bracelets. Kelce, 34, was not the only celebrity in attendance at Friday night’s event; other singers Katy Perry and Rita Ora were also sighted. 

Swift, 34, flew to Australia days after supporting boyfriend Travis Kelce at the Super Bowl in Las Vegas to play a series of sold-out gigs in Melbourne.

 Taylor Swift thanked 288,000 fans who attended her latest Eras Tour shows, saying, “Melbourne, you are the love of my life.” “Make them feel welcome like that,” Swift added.

During her acoustic set during her debut Melbourne show, the singer stunned the crowd by revealing a fresh version of her upcoming album, The Tortured Poets Department.

“I believe I needed to make this record more than any other. It was really a lifeline for me. “Just the things I was going through and writing about,” she remarked on stage. “It kind of reminded me of why songwriting was something that actually gets me through my life.”

Swift has had a few days off between her Melbourne and Sydney performances, enjoying the sights Down Under.

Earlier this week, she went out to dinner with friend Sabrina Carpenter, who is opening for Swift on her most recent tour.

Swift and her backup dancers spent Wednesday at the Sydney Zoo, where they cuddled with koalas, wombats, and other animals. According to local media, after Kelce was spotted returning from the United States, the pair went on a day trip that included a private zoo tour.
