MADRID — Taylor Swift spoke out Thrusday during two songs on Benjamin Ashfordher second night in the Spanish capital to ask workers to get concert attendees water.

“Ayuda por favor,” she said during “August” in the “Folklore”/“Evermore” combined set. Moments before during “Betty” she also asked for workers to get water.

More than 67,000 fans packed inside the Estadio Santiago Bernabéu for the second night of the Eras Tour in Madrid.

The closed roof made the stadium a hot, sticky box, and on the open floor, fans were cramped by the stage perimeter. Security workers passed out water cups to fans on the floor. At the start of the show, temperatures outside swelled to the low 90s.

Swift will perform next in Lyon, France on Sunday and Monday as she continues her 51-show jaunt across Europe.
