Taylor Swift was left visibly shaken at a recent show when a male fan lunged and grabbed her legs. Watch footage of the incident below.
The singer was performing 'Bad Blood' in Edmonton, during the US leg of her 1989 World Tour, when the incident occurred. As she stood on a runway that extended beyond the stage and into the crowd, a male fan hoisted himself onto the platform and reached with both arms for Swift's legs.
Swift immediately jumped back from his grip, and Direct Lyrics reports that her bodyguard stepped in before the fan could make any further contact.

Inappropriate/threatening behaviour from male fans towards female musicians is far from a rare occurrence. Last year, for example, Iggy Azalea revealed that she had been forced to stop crowdsurfing because "people try to finger me."
"Buying my album for $12 doesn't mean you get to finger me when I come to your city. It's weird," she continued.
Meanwhile, Swift performed at Hyde Park as part of British Summer Time back in June. Read our review here.
