Taylor Swift has postponed a concert in Rio de Janeiro due to “extreme temperatures”.<\/p>\n

The heat index, which combines temperature and humidity, reached 59.7 degrees Celsius in the Brazilian city on Saturday.<\/p>\n

In addition, a fan died before Swift’s show on Friday, leaving her “devastated”<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Ana Clara Benevides, 23, became unwell and later died in hospital. Her cause of death has not been announced but Brazilian daily newspaper Fohla de S Paulo reported she had collapsed at the show and had a cardiac arrest.<\/p>\n

Several fans fell ill on Friday, prompting Swift to interrupt her performance and ask the production team to give them water, videos showed.<\/p>\n

The concerts are being held at Nilton Santos stadium, far from Rio’s breezy beaches in a hotter northern neighbourhood.<\/p>\n

Swift posted the decision to postpone Saturday’s show on Instagram about two hours before it was due to start.<\/p>\n

“The safety and well-being of my fans, fellow performers, and crew has to, and always will, come first,” she said.<\/p>\n

As news of the postponement spread, many young girls outside the stadium burst into tears.<\/p>\n

Swift is also due to perform in Rio on Sunday, ahead of three shows in Sao Paulo next weekend.<\/p>\n

Heat exhaustion, which can include dizziness, headaches, shaking and thirst, is not usually serious, provided the person cools down within 30 minutes.<\/p>\n

However heat stroke – when the body’s core temperature goes above 40.6 degrees Celsius – is a medical emergency.<\/p>\n

Following Ms Benevides’ death, justice minister Flavio Dino said the Brazilian government would issue a directive allowing water bottles to be brought into concerts.<\/p>\n

“Companies producing shows with high heat exposure must provide free drinking water in easily accessible ‘hydration islands’,” he said on X, formerly known as Twitter.<\/p>\n

“The measure is effective immediately.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
