Taylor Swift performs intimate Paris concert to celebrate new album

Pop singer Taylor Swift delighted fans with an intimate concert in Paris on Monday. The concert was Swift’s only performance worldwide to promote her new album, "Lover", which was released two weeks ago. Swift performed three songs from the new album for the first time on the acoustic guitar and piano. In between performances of high-powered pop hits like "Shake It Off" and "I Knew You Were Trouble", Swift said that she wanted the concert to be an intimate "release party" for the new album.

Fans came from as far away as Japan and Mexico to see Swift perform at the French capital's Olympia Music Hall. Tickets were distributed worldwide through competitions online, though radio stations and music companies. "Lover" has already broken records in China, with over one million total streams, downloads and sales within a week of its release.
