Eras tour has now 151 shows worldwide including 50 shows in stan twitter and atrl's precious europe. She has multiple albums charting everywhere in Europe. When she tours there next year, her discography gonna get more boost. If it was only europe tour only, it would be still one of biggest tours of all time with it only. Madonna the biggest female artist ever, her tour sweet tour had 42 shows in Europe for example. I guess Taylor isn't doing bad for someone who supposedly does bad there! In amount of stadium shows, does any other female artist have done more than 50 stadiums there? ( note stadiums, not small arenas ) .
It doesn't seem so:
Adele toured mostly Arenas on her 25 tour (which is kinda wild in retrospect)
Madonna's sticky and sweet tour was a combo of arenas, stadiums and a bunch of shows in parks. I would say sticky/sweet has a bigger geographic footprint in Europe (Serbia, Estonia, Gothenburg for instance are places Taylor didn't tour) but Taylor very clearly was just hitting big markets, she could have probably hit Gothenburg or Estonia for instance, but in Belgrade or Budva or Sofia who knows
-- also in many of these park shows the attendance is for sure comparable to stadiums
MDMA didn't have a comparable amount of European stadiums but again had some more diversity like shows in Moscow (which to be fair to Taylor would be impossible rn) and Istanbul (which Taylor could probably sell out at least one night)
-- Frankly though a lot of the attendance's are a lot lower than Taylor's dates will be, for instance in most of the stadium's the attendances are in the 30000's
Pink's Beautiful Trauma had way less dates and a lower geographic diversity
Celine's taking chances didn't sell out many of the stadiums it booked, which already sold way less tickets than they could've (ex. 20k tickets in Olympiastadion in Munich, of which only 17k were sold and the venue's capacity is 70k)
Yeah but point is selling out most stadiums. She has the record. Tina Turner dis 100 plus shows in Europe during one tour but most were arenas.. With 3 million people attending. That might be record in terms of attendance

Taylor is most streamed artist on spotify india ( international). Local queen to india. Her equivalent units makes perfect sense when u see her penetrating markets with massive populations. Streaming hasn't inflated numbers. But actually has made music reach new audience. So the numbers match the demand.
200m by the end of 2024 is pretty much guaranteed. Let's see how high she can go

Nothing, good for her. Waiting for year end charts to come out now, hope midnights end up in t10 in lot of them.
Keep changing the goal post. She is overall most streamed artist across the world. That is most important thing.!
She is number one western artist. How she isn't huge? She is biggest western artist there.
