The truckers that transport Taylor Swift’s equipment across the nation are receiving six-figure bonuses as a result of her hugely successful Eras Tour. According to our Taylor sources, she gave each truck driver on her tour a $100,000 gift and distributed the bonus checks prior to her performance on Saturday in Santa Clara, California.
According to reports, the recipients of the funds are the production truck drivers who have been transporting Taylor’s tour equipment for The Eras Tour. Taylor reportedly paid $5 million for the 50 truckers who have been working on her U.S. tour. Taylor’s nationwide tour has generated $1 billion in revenue, and when everything is said and done, she may have the highest-earning tour ever. Taylor also gave bonuses to musicians, dancers, sound and lighting engineers, caterers, and other professionals. Although the amount given to non-truckers is unknown, it was reportedly a “very generous amount.”
