Sharing the Wealth

Taylor Swift has been doing very well for herself for a long time, but according to Insider, her history-making Eras tour may make her a millionaire.

As it stands, the superstar's net worth is estimated to be around $740 million, so you'd be pretty impressed if we told you that she handed out bonuses totaling $55 million to her tour workers: that's roughly 7.5% of her net worth, which is also a very large sum for her It's a very large amount of money for her, no doubt about it.

TMZ first reported that Swift gave the truck drivers on her tour a bonus check for $100,000 each, for a total of $5 million, as an "end of tour" bonus to conclude her US tour.

People subsequently spoke with sources who confirmed that Blondie, as she is affectionately called by her fans, received a total of $55 million, including bonuses for dancers, riggers, sound technicians, caterers, and many others involved in the smooth running of the show that began this March. Brondi has confirmed that he received a total of $55 million.

So far, the Elas Tour has been as iconic, both on and off stage, as originally anticipated.

Since the beginning of the show, news broke that Swift had broken up with her longtime partner Joe Alwyn, followed by rumors of a relationship with The 1975's Matty Healy.

Since March, Swift has also encountered stage malfunctions, very publicly reunited with an ex-lover, cackled while singing a song allegedly about her feud with Kanye West, confronted a security guard who felt she was crossing a line, and appeared to enter the stage in a janitor's cart. Well, there's never a dull moment, is there?
