Taylor Swift: A Year of Milestones and Achievements Culminating in Billionaire Status
Forbes adding Swift’s name to the list doesn’t come as a surprise. Her highly acclaimed Eras Tour, which kicked off on March 17, 2023, in Arizona and is scheduled to run until December, made history last year by becoming the first tour to surpass $1 billion in gross revenue, as reported by Pollstar.
During the tour, Swift’s team filmed multiple concerts, leading to the release of a movie in October 2023 that grossed an additional $261.6 million worldwide. Furthermore, Disney reportedly acquired the streaming rights to the movie for $75 million, making it available on their Disney+ platform

In December, Time magazine honored Swift as their 2023 Person of the Year, placing her among esteemed past recipients like presidents Joe Biden and Donald Trump, as well as Pope Francis.
Subsequently, at the 2024 Grammy Awards in February, Swift achieved a record-breaking feat by clinching her fourth Album of the Year prize for “Midnights.” This victory surpassed esteemed musicians such as Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and Paul Simon, all of whom had previously secured three wins in the category.
