Taylor Swift’s concerts have always drawn famous faces, and Friday night was no exception. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was seen enjoying the pop star’s hits as she brought her Eras Tour to Toronto for a second weekend.

In now-viral videos, Trudeau is caught busting out dance moves and looking captivated by Taylor Swift’s performance. Adding to the fun, he joined in on the Eras Tour tradition, swapping friendship bracelets with nearby Swifties.

Trudeau’s carefree night at the Eras Tour sparked outrage as anti-NATO demonstrations in his home riding of Montreal turned violent Friday night. Police reported smashed windows and fires during the protest as the city hosted the NATO Parliamentary Assembly.

At around 6:10 p.m., protesters lit a mannequin on fire in the middle of the crowd and began marching together, throwing objects including smoke bombs and metal barriers into the street to obstruct police work, according to CBC News reports.

Should Trudeau have left the concert and appeased rioters in Montreal? This X user thinks so.
