In the middle of hit song, “i wanna be your girlfriend”, she took a powerful step by asking the crowd to put their phones away and simply be present in the moment, with only their hands raised to support her as she crowd surfed through the audience. It was a special and intimate gesture, creating a sense of unity between her and the crowd.

Her stage energy was nothing short of exhilarating. She interacted with fans at every turn, saying things like “I wanna be your girlfriend” to those wearing ties, and shouting “I love you” back to fans who declared their love for her. She ran and jumped across the stage with uncontainable energy, making every moment feel alive and personal. It was clear that this wasn’t just a concert or fans attending a concert, it was a family. By the end of the night, I found myself becoming a new fan, swept up in the magic of her performance and am looking forward to seeing her tour again!
