  • With a record-breaking tour, a blockbuster movie and a shrewd mind for business, the 33-year-old singer is now worth an estimated $1.1 billion.
    Taylor Swift’s Eras tour started out as a retrospective of her nearly two decade career and a celebration of her 10 iconic albums. It has become an unprecedented financial phenomenon that has already brought in $780 million in ticket sales, on its way to becoming the highest-grossing tour of all time. And it’s ushered the 33-year-old pop queen into yet another new era: she is now a billionaire and the first musician to make the ranks solely based on her songs and performances. According to Forbes estimates, she is worth more than $1.1 billion, up $360 million from June when Swift ranked no. 34 among America’s richest self made women.
    Much of that boost comes from her unforgettable summer. She pocketed an estimated $190 million after taxes from the first leg of the Eras tour and another $35 million from the first two weeks of screenings of Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie. Altogether more than $500 million of Swift’s fortune is cash earned from music royalties and touring. Another $500 million is based on the rising value of her music catalog, and she has $125 million in real estate including six homes and a $10 million private plane.

    Why are some people so jealous in the comments I’m proud of Taylor she’s been in the industry forever and worked extremely hard. She writes/co writes ALL of her songs, plays piano, guitar and more and wrote an entire album BY HERSELF! She deserves her success because this girl has genuine talent idc what people say. Go Taylor 🎉

    At the end of the day, it's her publishing, and the fact that she owns a majority stake in it, and always has. When you hear about a $500 million dollar value on the "catalog" at 0:50, that's what they're talking about (they explain it more at 2:37). It's the fact that she has written or co-written *every* *single* *song* she has ever recorded for a label. It's what she has that few stars of her profile do, even Beyoncé (who, yes, has owned her masters of her RECORDINGS since her fourth album, but who lately has had to split publishing with all the writers of songs she samples-even if those samples show brilliant taste on her part, which they do), or Rihanna-whose billionnaire status, as we know, comes largely from her unprecedented success in the makeup world. It's what allows her to even be legally and practically *able* to complete the re-recording project in the first place without needing anyone's permission. It doesn't make any of these women "better" or "smarter" than the other. It's just a simple objective fact that this girl was a songwriter before anything else, signing with Sony/ATV years before signing her first record deal.

  • @RaniVeluNachar-kx4lu

    I believe she is just getting started. She has a Formula, a niche that is probably like that of Michael Jackson's but with a much larger audience and following. She is a music mogul and will probably end up owning her own Studio and Record Label and even diversify into other businesses.
    Even if she slows down a bit or goes full on Married with Child or Children too, and heavily intensifies her advocacy to Climate Change and Poverty, even with that,
    She could easily break into a high single or double digit wealth value.
    Here's a thought: Taylor's net worth in ten years will be 13 Billion dollars.
    Today is 05/21/2024 and she is moving up from 1.1 Billion dollars now.

She was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame... With 19 #1 hit songs, she made Billboard history in 1995 when her song with Boyz II Men went #1 for 16 weeks, breaking a record at that time... Mariah Carey released 7 albums in the 1990s.. That's seven albums within 10 years.. That doesn't include her MTV Unplugged album, which was also released in the 1990s.. She is the Queen..
