Unless you’ve been living under a rock, the news of Taylor Swift‘s Eras Tour hitting Aussie shores next February has been everywhere and the amount of dosh she’s earning for her seven Aus shows was just revealed.
Perth Now reported that the global pop star would be earning a whopping $35 million for her seven show stint, working out to be an eye-watering $5 mil a show.
Swift is snubbing all but two of Australia’s major cities, only heading to Melbourne and Sydney leaving Swifties across the rest of Australia forking out thousands just to see her.
Tour sources have revealed that the decision to stay on the southeast side of the country likely came straight from Taylor herself, Perth Now reported on Saturday.
“With big tours like this, the directive would come from the artist,” an insider told the publication.
“Taylor would have said, ‘I only have time to do two cities. I don’t have time to go around the country.’ It’s a directive that comes from the artist.”
A third show in Melbourne and a fourth show in Sydney was announced mid last week after the absolute shitshow that was trying to secure Eras Tour tickets via Ticketek.
She will become the first artist since Madonna (!) to perform three consecutive concerts at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) when she takes the stage in February next year, and the first ever (!!) to play a fourth straight show at Sydney’s Accor Stadium.
As one of the lucky ones to secure tickets to see Taylor Swift in Melbourne next year, I’d like to think that I played a part (albeit a small one) in blondie’s totally bonkers salary.
A three-hour show done entirely in heels? I’d want 5 mil a night, too.
