Love her or hate her, it's undeniable that Taylor Swift is the biggest pop star of today's generation. With the Eras Tour ranking among the highest-grossing world tours of all time, Taylor Swift became a billionaire just seven months into the concert series. Yet, she hasn't forgotten to share her wealth with those who make it all possible.
In the latest news, it seems that Taylor Swift gifted at least one crew member a $100,000 bonus accompanied by a heartfelt handwritten note. According to the note shared on X (formerly Twitter), it saw Swift's handwriting on a white card decorated with a small cluster of succulents.
The note shared on the account Pop Base on Sunday (January 12), it dated February 23. Swift wrote: ¡°Robert, Thank you for your superb work on the U.S. leg of The Eras Tour!! Your well-deserved bonus is $100,000. Love, Taylor."?
The fans were quick to state how happy they were with this generosity while also gave back to haters stating that it surely was not just one crew member and the amount may have totaled to a huge sum if she gave it to everyone.??
One said, "Not even a big fan of Taylor swift but my sisters friend knows someone who is one of her dancers and he got about this same amount of money, I don¡¯t listen to her but it¡¯s nice to see her treat her whole crew very well".
?While another added, "Taylor is one of the most genuine and generous artists out there, you can have your negative opinions about her but no one is doing it like her. Thank you for listening".
One fan even gave back to haters calling it a PR stunt and said, "Saying that this 100,00k is for PR is an insult.If she wanted a PR, she could hire a PR agency that would cost her maximum $1M while saving around $54M.No other celebs nor billionaires have done so much generosity on their employees in public or private".
The Eras Tour¡ªwhich ran from March 2023 to December 2024¡ªgenerated over $2 billion in ticket sales, according to The New York Times. It was in August 2023, that People reported Taylor Swift having distributed over $55 million in bonuses after completing the U.S. leg of her world tour.?
