Taylor Swift’s concerts in Sydney were a spectacular extravaganza.
The likes of Rita Ora, Katy Perry, Rebel Wilson and Toni Collette were spotted among the crowds at the Accor Stadium this weekend.
But the presence of famous faces and their children has upset some Taylor Swift fans.
Radio host Michael ‘Wippa’ Wipfli, radio star Fifi Box and former The Project star Carrie Bickmore all shared footage of their young children falling asleep in their arms during the monster three-hour concerts, much to the fury of Swifties.
Many were upset that the tickets went to the little children of A-listers who didn’t get to enjoy the full show while fans missed it.

“Cute, but all those little kids with cards and falling asleep is killing me!” someone wrote on Facebook.
‘The hardest concert in the world to get tickets and so many fans are missing kids to sleep through it. I bet if this was an event of more than 12 people there would be a lot more fans in attendance.”
“I agree, there were people with tired children who gave their tickets for the last half of the concert as we sat outside listening. Sweet and friendly people, they epitomize a Swiftie,” said another.
“We had four next to us who were fast asleep for half the show in Melbourne. Take them home and put them to bed if they are not ready,” they added.

‘Literally why children under the age of ten are not allowed to go to concerts. I really think there should be an age limit for shows if they sell out like this,” said another.
“So many people would have paid double to go or would have loved to be there, but so many families leave halfway through with tired and emotional children,” someone else agreed.
Others disagreed. One person said: ‘If the parent pays, the kids deserve to be there. Most fall asleep at the end and have enjoyed it before. Do not you like it? Try harder next time to get tix’.
‘The number of people who think that children who fall asleep throw away a card is beyond me. It is still the experience of a lifetime for them,” said another.
“They will forever remember going to this concert with their mom/dad/friends…just because they are little and fall asleep doesn’t mean it’s a waste.”
