As a long-time Swiftie, I’ve been blown away by Taylor Swift’s meteoric rise to become the world’s richest female musician. From her humble beginnings in Wyoming to ruling the pop charts and breaking billionaire records, it’s been an exhilarating journey!
As a gamer, I’d put it like this: “Wow, who would have thought that Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour would rake in over $600 million? But guess what? It surpassed the billion-dollar mark! And let me tell you, the Eras Tour Movie broke box office records last year. Talk about a blockbuster! With three new albums under her belt since March 2023, her net worth has soared past a billion. Now she’s joining the ranks of other big-time musicians in the Billionaires Club. It’s like leveling up in a game, but for real!
After completing her European phase of “The Eras Tour”, it’s been confirmed by Page Six that Taylor Swift now holds the title as the wealthiest female musician globally, boasting a net worth of $1.6 billion. This new revelation pushes Rihanna down from the top spot, who earlier dethroned pop legend Madonna in wealth according to Forbes.
Although both Rihanna and another woman share a common profession as musicians, it’s important to note that Rihanna’s billionaire status didn’t originate from her music. Instead, it came from her cosmetics line Fenty Beauty and her clothing brand Fenty, which were launched only three years ago. Interestingly, the singer of “Bitch Better Have My Money” hasn’t put out a new album since 2016. Her Super Bowl Halftime Show in 2023 marked her first full performance since the tour for her album ANTI.
As a gamer, I can’t help but feel blown away by the fact that the sensation from “Fortnite” has outperformed Rihanna in this particular category. After all, her “Eras Tour” is officially the highest-grossing tour ever, surpassing even Elton John’s legendary “Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour.” And guess what? She’s not done yet! The 14-time Grammy winner is gearing up to make a comeback in North America this fall, starting the journey in Miami and wrapping it up in Vancouver by December.
From my gaming perspective, let me tell you this: The “Anti-Hero” performer cashes in a cool $13 million per concert night, on average. Quite a score, right?
It’s astonishing how Miss Swift has managed to tour since March 2023 and simultaneously produce the extensive album “Tortured Poets Department.” Adding to this, she’s set new streaming records with each release of her re-recorded tracks, making us wonder if there will be another one soon. The last one, “1989 (Taylor’s Version),” came out about a year ago, and fans are eagerly waiting for the next drop. There’s even talk of “Reputation TV” being the next project. Yet, Taylor Swift has clarified that her reason for re-recording her discography isn’t about money or streams, but rather a matter of personal principle, as she wants to fully own her musical catalog.
It’s not surprising that Taylor Swift’s friend Selena Gomez, who recently joined the billionaires club, has expressed her feelings about this new status. As they share many values, it’s only natural. Known for her genius in the music industry, Selena appears to be mindful of her billionaire standing and is often seen generously donating to her team and contributing to her community.
During her tours, Taylor Swift rewarded her truck drivers and other tour personnel with over $5 million in bonuses. Furthermore, she compensated three times the amount of her carbon emissions, a cost that didn’t even make it into the top 30 for celebrity private jet emissions in 2023 as reported by Capital News Service, despite being on tour for most of the year. Lately, Taylor Swift, known for her song “Karma”, has donated $5 million towards hurricane relief efforts for victims of Hurricanes Helene and Milton.
If we have come to realize anything about the “Blank Space” billionaire, it’s that, much like Rihanna, she never stops working. Seriously, this girl deserves a break, but I have a feeling she can’t help but keep busy. I’m just glad she’s got a good heart and is so generous with her wealth.
