The thing with Taylor is that she can only tour North American, Australia and Asia. In Europe, other than in the UK, she is not known.
Actually, she could easily tour in both Sweden and Norway. Maybe even Spain and Portugal as well. And yes, she is known, especially in the four already named!

I gotta give her props for slowly expanding her European market. She's doing 6 different shows for The 1989 World Tour compared to 5 shows at the O2 Arena and 1 at The O2 World for The Red Tour but I don't know the venue capacities that they're using.
Her team is playing it safe with the European leg, for the Speak Now World Tour she did 11 shows in different cities but had about a less than 9000 average capacity.
In Europe, Taylor is going to play:
Germany:
Lanxess Arena
Lanxess Arena
Netherlands:
Ziggo Dome
UK:
SSE Hydro
Manchester Arena
British Summertime Hyde Park
Ireland:
the 3Arena
the 3Arena
And she could easily add more. As far as im concerned, the only date that didnt sell out yet in the UK is the Hyde Park one, which is a stadium-sized venue. In Netherlands, her Ziggo Dome sold out within 20 minutes, so demand is clearly there. She needs to stop playing it safe and come for blood!

I don't think Katy will beat TMB or TTAL tours...Europe is her worst market.
She still has to go to Asia and South America though, and there's rumours of another US leg. Plus she could do another Oceanian leg if she wanted to which could easily make her another $20 million. She will surpass P!nk with ease.

She might do another US leg, and have tickets go on sale after the SuperBowl. That would be a smart idea. However, I don't think she's going to do to Asia/South America. That's too much work, and it's risky especially for the promoter.
Katy's got about 32 shows to go/report and is making about $1.4 million per show according to the $153 million from the 106 shows by Pollstar. I think she can snatch a spot or two in the end!
