She is though. She's no different than Spears, Aguilera, Gaga, Perry, etc. MJ was on a whole other level.

Would Spears, Aguilera, Perry, etc. be selling out three-night runs in stadiums playing 45 song sets?

All in their heyday? If they wanted to yes.

Doubt it. The Eras tour is what it is because Taylor has like 9 or 10 albums worth of material to tour on. Those others you mentioned topped out at 3 or 4 albums

Spears might, she was probably a bigger celebrity than Swift at her prime

Britney Spears biggest tour had 1.5 million people. Taylor Swift beat that on her second tour. Her highest is currently 2.9 million and Eras is going to demolish that figure.

Britney Spears biggest paid concert had 55k. Taylor Swift is at 73k. That's the highest attendance for a female musician ever which was previously held by Madonna with 63k in 1987.

It's really obvious how out of touch some of you are with current musicians.

Tina Turner had a 188k concert in 1988 in Rio de Janeiro.

Liverpool with 125k.

I was incorrect with Madonna's record. That was her record for the US specifically. Hers is 120k in Paris. Swift is set for 100k+ in Melbourne. I'm guessing she'll break her own record in this tour but can't be bothered to find which place she has booked which has the highest capacity.

Literally everyone of Taylor's albums is one of the greatest of all time albums except her debut album. Plus she'll be alive to make at least 5 more all time albums

I want a Moonwalker-style video game where you play as Taylor Swift.

Just goes to show how much the quality of music went to complete shit over the years.

Music's in a pretty good place at the moment.

Way better than its early 2000s low point.

Taylor just released a new album today. What has MJ done lately?

Dude is still making over $300 million a year 14 years removed from this planet. A lot of that goes to charity.
