    Taylor Swift dancer delivers another hilarious Irish slang phrase to Dublin crowd during night two of Eras Tour

    Taylor Swift 's dancer delivered another hilarious Irish phrase to audiences at the Aviva Stadium during the second of her three sell-out gigs in Dublin .

    Thousands of Swifties packed into the massive venue, which boasts a capacity of 51,700, for the arrival of the Eras Tour to the Irish capital. Paramore , the pop-punk band led by Hayley Williams, got the show on the road, leaving the audience spellbound before Taylor took to the stage for her over-three-hour set packed full of hits.

    During the night's tenth tune, We Are Never Getting Back Together, from her Red Era, in place of the lyrics, "like, ever," Swift's chief dancer, Kameron Saunders, burst out with the Irish expression "the neck of ye!"

    The colloquialism elicited thunderous cheers from attendees. On Friday, Saunders yelled out 'pog mo thoin' to the ecstatic audience, Irish for 'kiss my a**'. Many anticipated the star to pepper some Irish lingo throughout her act.

    Swift and the six-dancer ensembled sported eye-catching, red, sequined get-ups while assuming a line formation during the beloved song's interlude . Before the chorus kicked in, the mic was handed to Kameron who shouted the amusing phrase, which generally means when someone is being bold, daring, or embarrassing.

    It is also a typically Dublin way of telling someone 'where to go' if they suggested getting back together so easily, especially after a bad breakup .
