An unbelievable photo from a Taylor Swift concert has caused outrage after a baby was spotted in an extremely dangerous scenario.

Taylor Swift has taken her wildly successful The Eras Tour to Europe and is currently performing in Paris.

The Shake It Off star’s performance appears to have been overshadowed after a tweet from one concertgoer showed an infant sleeping on a coat in what appears to be a mosh pit.

Page Six has shared a since-deleted tweet where X user @jacnights13 shared the photo saying: “Not to be one of those people but I would genuinely call security if I saw a baby in the pit because it is NOT safe there,” the user captioned the photo.

The X user later clarified the image was not there’s and they were only sharing.

The photo quickly went viral online with users weighing in on the unidentified parent’s decision highlighting the pit is not the place for an infant.

“You belong in a jail cell for bringing your baby on the floor of a Taylor Swift concert. the lack of common sense is astonishing to me,” one user said.

“Literally if there was an emergency and everyone had to rush to exit that baby would get stepped on or injured. It’s literally so upsetting to me I can’t even,” one person commented.

“As a mum of a baby that’s about this size, I couldn’t imagine being them into a concert at all. I understand sitters are hard to find, so if you really needed to bring them, you shouldn’t be in the pit. you should have a carrier for them, and the baby needs ear protection,” another person wrote.

The arena’s website shared guidance for Swift’s concerts in Paris, including bag regulations and prohibited items, but did not include specific instructions concerning children.

The publication has reached out to Swift representatives and the La Défense Arena but has not yet had a response.
