Taylor Swift kept her cool during a mechanical glitch Saturday night at her concert in Dublin.
The 30-year-old superstar, who told the sold out crowd at Aviva Stadium her Folklore album was inspired by the Emerald Isle, continued to wow the crowd as she kept her composure while dealing with an unforeseen incident on stage.
The hitmaker was singing The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived on top of a raised platform when something went wrong.
The lift wouldn’t lower, leaving the singer stuck.
The Grammy winner who was wearing a white dress with black script beneath a large white military style jacket, knelt down on the platform and one of her dancers, identified as Jan by a fan, quickly came and helped her down before quietly walking away.

A more serious incident took place during Friday night’s show.
The eagle-eyed singer noticed some fans struggling with what turned out to be dehydration near the front of the stage, and alerted security.
‘We need some help over there,’ she said while singing Lavender Haze.
‘I see that you’ve got it. Great. Everyone who works in this stadium is amazing,’ she stated, before finishing the number.
Swift performed The Albatross from her new The Tortured Poets Department album for the first time for the Dublin crowd.
It was part of the surprise song segment that fans look forward to, and she combined it Dancing With Our Hands Tied from the Reputation album.
‘I wait for (the acoustic set) all night because this is the part of the show that keeps me on my toes,’ she told the audience, before strumming the tune on her guitar.
As of Sunday, the new album has remained perched safely atop the the Billboard 200 chart for 10 weeks in a row.

Swift performed The Albatross from her new The Tortured Poets Department album for the first time for the Dublin crowd. The album has sat atop the Billboard 200 for 10 weeks in a row, and if it stays on top for another week, will equal the success of 1999 and Fearless
The accomplishment puts her among an elite group that includes the late Whitney Houston and Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Stevie Wonder, and Morgan Wallen.
She is the only artist with three albums to spend at least 10 weeks at number one albums this century, and is the first woman to achieve this feat since Adele’s 2012 release, 21.
If the success of TTPD continues, the hitmaker will match the achievements of albums 1999 and Fearless, which both spent 11 weeks at number one.
After Sunday’s show, Swift will rest for a few days before hitting the stage July 4 in Amsterdam where she will play three nights in a row.
