Taylor Swift officially declared a billionaire by Forbes
TAYLOR Swift was officially named a member of the three-comma-club on Tuesday (Apr 2), as Forbes confirmed rumours estimating her wealth exceeds a billion US dollars.
Along with her vast songwriting catalogue, Swift staged the first billion-dollar tour ever – the ongoing Eras Tour has boosted economies and delighted fans around the world.
Swift, 34, also has a significant real estate portfolio, with homes in New York, Beverly Hills, Nashville and a coastal mansion in Rhode Island.
Her touring milestone was one of many records Swift shattered over the past year, including winning a fourth Grammy for Album of the Year, the most of any artist.
She received wall-to-wall attention throughout 2023, which closed with Time Magazine honouring Swift as Person of the Year, calling her a “rare person who is both the writer and hero of her own story”.
And in mere weeks fans have a brand-new album to look forward to: Swift is set to drop The Tortured Poets Department on Apr 19. AFP
