Since her 2008 album "Fearless" became a phenomenon, prolific pop singer Taylor Swift has been at the top of the charts consistently. ]However, her most listened songs on Spotify indicate which hits fans can't get enough of. With her self-titled debut album, Taylor Swift made her debut as a country music artist in the late 2000s.
Only after experimenting with a pop-country sound in Fearless and producing successes like "Love Story" and "You Belong With Me," did Swift become well-known. Since then, Swift's notoriety has exploded, and she continues to have a devoted following in addition to her successful career.
But 2023 is really remarkable for Swift, even for someone already very established like her.
Not only did the pop sensation dominate the music scene in 2023, but she also dominated business, breaking box office records in its first weekend of release, selling out stadiums all over the world with her "Eras" tour, and making Swift herself a billionaire in the process.
Fans also lavished money on merchandise at her concerts, as reported by CNN. Swift accomplished amazing things that would make any ordinary business executive of a Fortune 500 firm proud.
She commanded a devoted following of supporters who turned out in droves to spend money, and that's success for any business leader, chief executive officer or not, in an economy mostly driven by consumer spending.
No other corporate leader in recent memory has inspired such international enthusiasm, such business acumen, or such goodwill with customers. Swift's enormous influence on the wealthiest capitalist society in the world is the reason she is CNN's businessperson of the year, another testament to her immense talent.
The highlight of Swift's incredible year was the Eras tour, which is scheduled to run through the end of 2024.
Swift's tour surpassed other popular performers in terms of ticket sales, according to StubHub, making it "the biggest" in the company's 20-year history.
Although Swift hasn't disclosed official sales numbers, some estimates indicate the tour is already bringing in tens of thousands of dollars. Earlier last month, Pollstar calculated that the tour's first 60 gigs brought in over $1 billion in revenue.
