Taylor Swift soon to be a billionaire🎶💰TR™@xItsTR_@TheSwiftSociety BILLIONAIRE TAYLOR SWIFT THAT'S RIGHT7@TheSwiftSociety BILLIONAIRE TAYLOR SWIFT THAT'S RIGHTTaylor Swift will make additional revenue from the merchandiseForbes projected the Anti-Hero singer's estimated earnings based on Herlihy’s statement, which noted that Swift is likely to make 100% and 110% of the $591 million ticket sales for the tour.The professor told the publication:“Her promoter should be happy to pay her more because he does not have to assume any risk that her concerts will not sell out.”Forbes’ report estimated that Swift would make $620 million, which is 105% of the ticket revenue. Billboard speculates that Swift will sell the remaining 170,000 tickets for her tour before the end of 2022, and with an average ticket price of $215, she would yield total tour sales of $591 million.

The singer will likely sell out 30,000 pieces of merchandise at an average price of $80 per item. 30% of that would go to the venue, while the remainder would go to Swift and the promoter.The expenses Swift would get to keep would cost between $465 million and $496 million. Herlihy made the estimation after counting in money for taxes, her crew, venue rental, and tour expenses — possibly redundant trucks, crews, security, and musical instruments, among other expenses. According to the report, these expenses could range between 20 percent and 25 percent of her revenue.

Ticketmaster had to cancel ticket sales soon after they went live, citing: “Extraordinarily high demand on the ticketing system and insufficient remaining ticket inventory.”Over 3.5 million people went to register on the website for the presales, leading the website to crash. Swift later addressed the issue by apologizing to her fans, saying that she was “trying to figure out how this situation can be improved moving forward.”
