Taylor Swift Gives Bonuses Totaling Over $55 Million to Every Person Working on Massive Eras Tour

Sources confirm to PEOPLE that caterers, truck drivers, riggers, dancers and more all received bonuses from the pop superstar

A cruel summer? Not for Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour crew.

Sources confirm to PEOPLE the pop superstar — who’s set to play six sold-out shows at Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium — recently gave bonuses totaling over $55 million to everyone (from her dancers to riggers, sound technicians and catering, among others) working on her massive show.

TMZ previously reported that Swift, 33, gifted truckers on her tour $100,000 each ahead of her concert stop in Santa Clara over the weekend.

 

The Grammy winner kicked off her tour in March in Glendale, Arizona, dazzling fans with a career-spanning 44-song setlist. Since then, her concerts have drawn famous friends and faces including Miles Teller, Drew Barrymore, Reese Witherspoon, Gigi Hadid, Paul Rudd and more.

In June, Swift announced she would be heading across the pond — and around the world — in 2024 for shows across Europe, Asia and Australia. The singer announced her first international leg of shows in Latin America earlier in the month, teasing that there were “LOTS” more dates to come.

Amid the release of her latest re-recording, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), Swift surprised fans at her Kansas City tour stop, bringing out Joey King, Presley Cash and Taylor Lautner onstage after unveiling her new music video for the vault track “I Can See You.”

In the action-packed music video, the trio help Swift take back her third studio album. (King and Presley made appearances in Swift’s 2011 “Mean” music video, while Swift and Lautner — who inspired “Back to December” — briefly dated after costarring in Valentine’s Day over a decade ago.)

“I recorded this album when I was 32 (and still growing up, now) and the memories it brought back filled me with nostalgia and appreciation. For life, for you, for the fact that I get to reclaim my work. Thank you a million times, for the memories that break our fall,” she wrote on Instagram upon the record’s release.

After wowing fans Down Under, Taylor Swift jetted to Singapore last week to continue her Eras Tour. And the 34-year-old superstar is believed to be staying at the glorious Capella resort.

Situated on Sentosa island, the hotel boasts an amazing selection of accommodation, including lavish suites and villas. Taylor is believed to be staying in the gorgeous Colonial Manor, which is priced at an eye-watering AU$21,000 ($14,000 USD) -a night.

Originally built in the 1880s, the stunning Old-Style pad consists of a pair of vintage bungalows which have been converted into one sprawling three-bedroom suite.

Located at the entrance of the Capella’s main building, the manor has room for six adults and one child, and boasts king-size beds in each bedroom.

Features include a separate dining room and multiple living and ‘study’ areas.

There’s also a rainforest shower, private lap pool and ‘entertainment’ terrace. The enormous master bedroom features a walk-in wardrobe.

Capella was built on the site of a British army base, which was originally constructed in 1880s and combines heritage buildings with new ultra-chic buildings. Surrounded by lush bushland, the resort has a marina, golf course and beach club nearby.

Taylor will play her fourth show in Singapore at the National Stadium on Thursday, with two more gigs to follow on Friday and Saturday.

While in Sydney, the megastar stayed in the lavish digs at the Crown’s presidential villa in Barangaroo. Crown Sydney’s presidential villa is situated on the 88th floor of Crown Towers Sydney and typically costs $25,000 ($18,000 USD)-per-night.
