Pop superstar Taylor Swift has officially hit billionaire status, according to an analysis by Bloomberg.
The analysis by Bloomberg News puts Swift's total net worth at $1.1 billion as of October 2023, mainly driven by the success of the U.S. leg of her Eras tour. Swift is one of the few artists to reach billionaire status from music and performing alone, per Bloomberg.

The 12-time Grammy Award winner made more than $780 million on the U.S. leg of the Eras Tour, according to an estimate by Forbes.
The total ticket sales from Swift's 2023 Eras Tour could make her the highest-grossing female touring artist of all time, according to Billboard.
The Eras Tour could gross over $1 billion, making concert history as the first billion-dollar tour, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Swift's The Eras Tour concert film became the highest-grossing concert film in North America, bringing in an estimated $95 million to $97 million in ticket sales during its opening weekend in the U.S. and Canada, according to Axios.
The concert film is part of a partnership between Swift and AMC Entertainment, who is the distributor for the film in addition to showing it in theaters.
The Eras Tour concert film opened worldwide on October 13, 2023, and sold over $100 million in advance tickets a week before the film premiered across 100 countries.
The pop superstar sold 2 million tickets for her Eras Tour on November 15th, 2022—the most tickets ever sold for an artist in a single day, according to Ticketmaster.
This isn’t the first time Taylor Swift has broken records, or set them. Swift’s Reputation tour was the highest-grossing tour in U.S. history at the time, she is the first artist in history to have claimed all the top 10 spots on the Billboard Hot 100 song list, and she was ranked third on Forbes’ list of America’s Richest Self-Made Women Under 40 in 2022.
