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: Eras Tour’ Concert Film Sellouts Outpacing ‘Barbie’, ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ – Box Office
deadline.comEXCLUSIVE: Heading into the Swift snowfall this weekend at the box office, here’s what we can tell you about the AMC-distributed film.
As has already been reported, a $100M+ projection per distribution sources is in store and another $50M+ overseas (for $150M WW debut); but part of the stats indicating this come from box office analytics firm EntTelligence which is observing sellouts for Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour significantly outstripping Barbie and percent-wise that of Spider-Man: No Way Home compared to each movie’s first evenings.
Another big indicator of big business: 99% of the presales activity for the entire weekend is for Eras Tour. Also, with young female skewing movies known to be frontloaded in their preview/opening days at the box office, EntTelligence says, “There is a very even disbursement of sales over the three days.” EntTelligence defines sellouts as showtimes having capacities of 75% or greater since handicapped and front rows do not necessarily draw attendance.
Now, Eras Tour won’t be having Thursday previews because Swift wants the film launching on her lucky day of Friday the 13th, so the first shows are at 6PM that night.
