Taylor Sheesh – real name Mac – a renown Taylor Swift impersonator and drag queen – and Swifties Philippines took over the Ayala Malls Trinoma this past weekend (May 21) to put on the show, which saw Sheesh lip-sync to tracks that Swift performs for her ‘Eras’ concerts – complete with costume changes, confetti and more.

The show – the second they’ve put on following its first in Manila in late March – was organised in an effort to convince Taylor Swift to bring her acclaimed ‘Eras’ tour to the Philippines. So far, Swift has only announced shows in the United States.

YES. I DID THE ERAS TOUR. I PERFORMED FOR ALMOST 1 HOUR AND 24 MINS. YEP, I’M THAT SWIFTIE. https://t.co/rUALN2kY5P

Following the show, Sheesh took to Instagram to share clips and images of the performance, thanking Filipino Swifties in the process and hinting at more mall shows: “Thank you so much for your energy last night. See you all [at] the next mall tour.”

Sheesh, Swifties Philippines and those in attendance also employed the #WeWantErasTourPhilippines hashtag across all social media platforms including TikTok, which has over 19.7million views attached to the hashtag.

Taylor Swift last performed in the Philippines in 2014 as part of her ‘Red’ tour.

Swift kicked off her ongoing ‘Eras’ tour in March with a mammoth 44-song setlist and specific stages to honour each of her 10 albums. Check out NME‘s breakdown of Taylor Swift’s ‘Eras’ tour kick-off here.
