Taylor Swift gives $55 million in bonuses to her Eras tour crew

Taylor Swift has been busy filling in blank spaces in her crew's paychecks. As she wraps up her Eras Tour in the United States, the pop star handed out massive bonuses to all those who played a part in making it a success, including dancers, riggers, sound technicians, caterers and other production staff, according to multiple reports. "Her father was the one that actually presented the checks to our drivers," Shomotion trucking company's CEO Mike Scherkenbach told Today. "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 recognised." But that's only nine percent of what Swift actually spent on the overall bonuses, as People reported that she shelled out over $55 million in total to give her crew a payday bump. News of the bonuses come just days before Taylor is set to wrap up the U.S. leg of the Eras Tour at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood. For the big send-off, all six shows at the 70,240-seat arena are sold out.
