OMG! Taylor Swift’s Heartwarming Gift: ’22’ hat from ‘Eras Tour’ in Paris goes home with San Diego Swiftie! ERAS Tour Surprise

A trip to Paris can be the experience of a lifetime: Seeing the Eiffel Tower for the first time or Notre Dame or a cruise on the Seine only scratch the surface of the beauty of the City of Lights.

Last week, thousands of people went to the City of Lights for another reason: To see Taylor Swift kick off the European leg of the “Eras Tour” at París La Défense Arena

Those in attendance included 9-year-old Julissa Vargas and her mom, Telemundo 20 executive producer Kathia Lopez-Santos. The trip of Julissa’s dreams turned into one she’ll never forget.

Vargas received the surprise of her life when she attended Night 1 of the “Eras Tour” in Paris.

NBC 7’s Brooke Martell, a Swiftie herself, asked Vargas what it was like being hugged by Taylor Swift. Because, yes, that happened.

“I don’t know. It was awesome,” The 9-year-old said. “It was, I don’t know, it was one of the best moments of my life. And she gave me a high-five with her two hands.”

But a hug from the world-famous pop icon was not on the original itinerary. The original plan: a trip to Paris with her parents and a chance to see the singer. It’s already something so many people, let alone a 9-year-old girl, could never imagine in their wildest dreams.
