“I can’t believe I get to do music as a career,” Taylor Swift said at the Los Angeles premiere of her new concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour, before an audience of more than 2,000 Swifties that included Adam Sandler, Mariska Hargitay, Simu Liu, and even Beyoncé. “That’s crazy. I’ve always had so much fun doing it. I’ve never had this much fun in my life as I have had on The Eras Tour. It is far and away just the most electric experience of my life.”

It’s also the most lucrative. Beginning in March and ending in August, Swift played 56 stadium shows across 20 U.S. cities and Mexico City, grossing more than $780 million and earning the 33-year-old pop queen an estimated $305 million.
