Taylor Swift, one of the most successful and acclaimed pop stars in the world is currently on her worldwide ‘Eras’ tour. So far it’s been a spectacular journey, a celebration of her music across different eras. The ‘Eras’ tour had been a smashing success, setting new records and reaching millions of fans. But Taylor knew that this success was not hers alone. It was the result of the hard work and dedication of her entire tour crew.
Recently, Taylor showed her team just how much she loves and appreciates them for all of the hard work they’ve been putting in while on tour. According to reports, the superstar gave them a big surprise which made their experience with the singer even more special.
A source close to production told PEOPLE that the singer gave bonuses totaling over $55 million to everyone on her tour squad from her backup dancers to sound technicians and catering, among others.
In addition to that, it was also said that she even gifted 50 truckers on her tour $100,000 each ahead of her concert stop in Santa Clara over the weekend. Shomotion Trucking company CEO Mike Scherkenbach told TODAY, “Her father was the one that actually presented the checks to our drivers. And he presented handwritten letters from Taylor. It’s incredible that they would take that time, and what it means to our staff to be recognized.”
