How is it possible that Taylor Swift and Beyoncé gross the same tour wise?

I mean Beyonce sings, dances and is probably the best performer this decade and she has the same demand that a basic artist, that can't sing, can't dance, has no charisma and no stage presence live.

Why does this happen?

I often wonder the same and I find it unfair considering Taylor is far more talented.

Racismé

That's the question I always ask myself, lol. Taylor is so basic.. But I think it's because spoiled white girls beg their parents and of course the parents think Taylor is a clean, kid friendly role model so they pay for their spoiled kids tickets and let them go.

FWT obliterated 1989's average tour gross, they're not on the same level

Only in the US, have you seen Taylor's European gross?

I will always call a song writer more talented than a singer in general

But Taylor is a mediocre song writer and Beyonce is an excellent singer, also Beyonce is multi-talented while Taylor only has song writing and she's not very good at it.

I spot lies in the OP. Taylor is a goddess on Earth and as such has many fans who want to listen to and watch Her perfection.

From the title thought this was gonna be something else

Taylor has all the kids and teens on her side, which makes up huge numbers, compared to Bey's primarily young adult audience.

OT: One of life's unsolved mysteries, I guess!

The Formation tour is obliterating the 1989 tour so I don't really understand this thread.

You don't have to be a great performer to sell out a concert. Taylor has a massive fanbase.

Even tho this is probably true, Mrs Carter World tour was out-grossed by 1989 tour, that's insulting enough to see something is very wrong

They're both the leading ladies of the industry. Not hard to grasp.

Because people love Taylor for her songwriting and her Grammy AOTY's

In records I will understand the massive fanbase excuse, but with tour gross Taylor seems so out of place grossing more than 200million compared to talented legends.

Because Taylor's white

The same way 1989 decimated the MCWT. They continue to outdo each other. Taylor's next tour is going to ride off the success of 1989, and her tours have continuously increased exponentially; therefore she's going to gross a minimum of $300M. And then Bey will continue the cycle with B7. Etc.
