    I am a GROWN BLACK MAN From Oakland California and I LOVE TAYLOR SWIFT. She is DOPE AF and a Great Song Writer. Her songs are Clever, Witty, AND Self Deprecating in a humorous way. Taylor is the truth.

These bonuses were delivered by her dad with a personal note of thanks from Taylor. She deserves all the money she gets, all the accolades...her parents, who travel with her, raised her right.

There are some much people who think they're better, know better than everyone else because they're so praised and loved and rich, that they don't owe anything to anyone. Those $55 million in bonuses she gave to the workers will make a huge difference in their lives too.

So easy & natural because it’s who she is. How refreshing. So many artists are sooo consumed with all the bullshit they lose themselves in the process & their fans go, too. They should all try to learn to love & accept themselves for who they are & trust their fans will follow. When in doubt, they should look to Swift.

How she sells out NFL not NBA/ NHL but NFL stadiums 75k plus seats and she does it 2-3 days in a row. I heard sofi is 6 shows . Then these international shows Brazil - Argentina as far as Australia and all Europe are almost all sold out already. This tour is making more than the next 3 combined . Not a fan of hers but respect the 44 songs and 4 hour sets and what she did playing at 2 am in Boston on n rainstorm is crazy. She about to join billionaire club on Music alone . Insane

    When tickets came out via ticket master the prices were between 49 and 549 dollars. The tickets that costs thousands of dollars are the ones ones sold by resellers such as stubhub, vividseats, etc. The problem is that ticketmaster owns stubhub so within the first hour that tickets were put out via ticket master the resellers sites had already thousands of seats and ticketmaster was out. I know this first hand bc I was in the queue for seats for the first leg of the US, the second leg for the miami dates, the Lyon ones in France, and the one in Edinburgh and I couldn't get seat anywhere. While I was in the queue for all these places, I had the resellers websites opened and I could see all the seats they had going for thousands of dollars. Taylor makes money from tickets sold by ticketmaster but not from resellers.
