2023 has indeed been a banner year for the pop star, with Taylor embarking on her record-breaking Eras Tour and a new romance with football star Travis Kelce that merged two unlikely worlds, Swifites and the NFL.

Swift achieved billionaire status in October as a result of her historic Eras tour, which has grossed close to $850 million following 66 shows in the U.S., according to Forbes.

Taylor Swift has been declared one of the world’s most powerful women by Forbes magazine, landing at number five on a list that includes world leaders, CEOs, and heads of financial corporations

Swift’s net worth grew to $1.1 billion after she earned $190 million – after tax – during the first leg of her tour, prompting her net worth to grow to $1.1 billion. She will next travel to Europe and Asia for her tour in 2024.

The publication also cited the economic benefits of a city hosting an Eras show. According to Forbes, on average fans spent $1,300 on lodging, food, and retailers during her two Denver concerts – providing $140 million to Colorado’s gross domestic product.

Estimates made by the U.S. Travel Association calculates that Taylor’s tour over $5 billion was added to state economies.

‘She’s like a big corporation, essentially, operating in many sectors,’ Carolyn Sloan, a labor economist and professor at the University of Chicago, told Forbes.

‘Her audience has skewed so young and so female for so long that people may have underestimated how big this thing could be, economically. I don’t think anybody doubts that today.’

Forbes also cites the success of her Eras Tour concert, released in October. The movie earned $93 million during its opening weekend and worldwide made over $250 million.

The release of her film also coincided with her much-talked about romance with NFL star Travis Kelce, whom Swift has been supporting in person at his games.

In addition, Forbes brings up her successful re-recording of her songs following a controversy over the masters. Her latest re-recording, 1989 (Taylor’s Version), broke a Spotify record.

Taylor has indeed been everywhere as of late – and her influence has not gone unnoticed.

Taylor has topped People’s 2023 Most Intriguing People of the Year list, and has also been nominated for TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year.

For now, fans will have to wait a little longer to see Taylor on stage again – she’s currently on a nearly three month break from her tour.
