Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
Taylor Swift and Beyoncé have taken to social media to hit out at the “obstructed view” tickets offered at both their respective tours.Currently, both pop stars are embarking on tour dates around the US – with Swift wrapping up the North American leg of her ‘Eras’ tour, and Beyoncé playing the remaining shows listed for her ‘Renaissance’ world tour.Already, both tours are set to become some of the highest-grossing of all time.
This comes as a report by Forbes earlier this year predicted that ‘Renaissance’ could gross between $275million and $2.4billion from tickets alone by the time it ends in September, with ‘Eras’ expected to bring in $1.9billion.However, some fans have been left less than impressed with the “listen only” and “obstructed view” tickets on offer for the live shows.
These tickets are marked as having partially obstructed views due to their location in the venue and are usually offered at a lower price point than others.Despite this, some have been quick to argue that they are still being charged too much for those seats, namely as in some cases they are unable to see the stages at all.As reported by The Independent, some fans have explained that they spent around $50 (£38) on “obstructed view” seats at Swift’s recent shows, only to discover that the seats were located directly behind the main stage and they could only see the singer when she walked out onto the walkway.“You could only get last minute obstructed view tickets but it’s worth it to see the cleaning cart and to say bye to Taylor,” one wrote, sharing the view she had at one of Swift’s recent shows.
Another commented: “I was so close to buying tickets until my sister shot them down because they were literally behind the screen.”There are no bad.
