The "Lover" singer, 33, resumed the South American leg of her Eras Tour Sunday night at Estadio Nilton Santos in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. On Saturday, Swift canceled that night's show hours before she was set to take the stage due to unusually “extreme heat” in the city. Friday's temperature topped 102 F, with humidity at more than 70%, a combination that made it feel as if it was actually 138 F, according to PBS.org.
