Taylor Swift sent her fans into a frenzy when she posed alongside Beyoncé at the world premiere of her new concert movie, The Eras Tour.

The Cruel Summer singer, 33, was joined on the red carpet by the Single Ladies hitmaker, 42, who was clad in a sculpted metal bodice and blacked-out shades for the occasion.

Swift looked ethereal in a blue Oscar de la Renta gown at the cinematic event at The Grove shopping mall in Los Angeles.

Beyoncé’s show of support comes after she announced that she too is dropping her own concert movie following the success of her jaw-dropping Reniassance World Tour.

Other stars that showed up to support Swift on Wednesday night included Julia Garner, Adam Sandler, Maren Morris and Hayley Kiyoko also in attendance.

The Style singer has broken cinema records with advance ticket sales for the film, which was recorded during the US leg of her Eras Tour and features songs spanning her entire career.

It will be released in the UK on Friday, but has already broken the record for the most tickets sold during the pre-sale opening week for a music event, according to Vue International.

The title was previously held by BTS’s Permission To Dance film, which was released last year.

Sharing a photo from the night on Instagram, Swift wrote: “PREMIERE DAY.

“Andddd I can’t really wrap my head around this but…. Look what you genuinely made me do: Due to unprecedented demand we’re opening up early access showings of The Eras Tour Concert Film on THURSDAY in America and Canada!! As in… TOMORROW.

“We’re also adding additional showtimes Friday and throughout the weekend. All tickets will be available by 10am tomorrow morning.

“And it’ll be showing starting Friday in 90 countries all over the world.

“I can’t thank you enough for wanting to see this film that so vividly captures my favourite adventure I’ve ever been a part of: The Eras Tour.

“And the best part is, it’s an adventure we’re still on together. Getting in the car now…”

US cinema chain AMC Theatres Distribution previously said the Swift film had beaten its record for the highest ticket-sales revenue during a single day in its 103-year history.

Swift will bring the live Eras Tour show to the UK next year, including shows in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff and London.

The UK and Ireland leg of the tour will start in Edinburgh with three shows at Murrayfield Stadium on June 7, 8 and 9 2024 before she heads to Liverpool’s Anfield stadium for June 13, 14 and 15.

Cardiff’s Principality Stadium follows on June 18 before three dates in London’s Wembley Stadium on June 21, 22 and 23.

She will then play dates in Dublin, Amsterdam, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Poland and Austria before returning to Wembley in August.
