Taylor Swift Joins Billionaire’s Club With Profits From Music Alone

Popular Grammy award winning singer, Taylor Swift has officially become a billionaire.

This makes her the first musician to enter the billionaire’s club solely through music, according to a new report by Bloomberg.

Taylor Swift is now the first-ever singer to hit that height with profits from music alone, and she reached the milestone thanks to the phenomenal success of her ‘Eras Tour’, her concert film, the value of her new music and the re-release of her earlier studio albums.

Bloomberg added that in-depth analysis into Swift’s finances reveals she made her 10-figure fortune almost entirely from her music.

WOW.

Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Recognized for her songwriting, musical versatility, artistic reinventions, and influence on the music industry, she is a prominent cultural figure of the 21st century.

Taylor Alison Swift was born on December 13, 1989, in West Reading, Pennsylvania. She is named after singer-songwriter James Taylor. Her father, Scott Kingsley Swift, is a former stockbroker for Merrill Lynch and her mother, Andrea Gardner Swift (née Finlay), is a former homemaker who previously worked as a mutual fund marketing executive. Taylor has a younger brother, actor Austin Swift.

Their maternal grandmother, Marjorie Finlay, was an opera singer. Swift has Scottish, German and Italian heritage.

One of Swift’s earliest memories of music is listening to her grandmother, Marjorie Finlay, sing in church. As a child, she enjoyed Disney film soundtracks: “My parents noticed that, once I had run out of words, I would just make up my own.” Swift said she owes her confidence and “fascination with writing and storytelling” to her mother, who helped her prepare for class presentations as a child.
