Drama Unfurls as Taylor Swift and Beyoncé Carry On with Their Respective Tours

With the world seeing one of the greatest moments in the world of music as both Taylor Swift and Beyoncé tour around in style, setting the stage on fire at numerous stadiums and concert venues, it is only natural that the two would be stacked up against one another. From their music to followers to their recent life events- everything would be held up for scrutiny by the fans and that is exactly what has been happening, especially now that the two have ventured into the international legs of their tours.

Taylor Swift was the first one of the two who took to social media in October to announce her Eras Tour after a hiatus of five years. The announcement revealed the tour to be her biggest, comprising 52 shows, and selling millions of tickets, the number of which stands at 2.4 million according to the last reports. In February, Queen Bey herself announced her 57-show Renaissance tour that is scheduled to take place in 40 cities after a hiatus of 7 years, starting from Europe in May.

Being two of the greatest Titans in the music industry, both Beyonce and Swift stand tall on the strength of their immense fanbase who leave no stone unturned in showing their admiration and love for their idols. From purchasing re-recorded catalogs to crashing giants like TicketMaster, they have received both positive responses and criticisms from others. Fans of both singers were seen flying in from other countries, spending thousands of dollars to see them perform.

While Taylor has been dishing out one magical performance after another, her personal life has also seen some unexpected development. After having been together for almost 6 years, Swift parted ways with Joe Alwyn, the announcement for which came in April. She had since been seen dating Matty Healy briefly until news about their split appeared. There had been some serious drama at her concert as well when Taylor told a security guard off for manhandling a group of fans during her performance of the song “Bad Blood”. While most applauded this move from Taylor, others accused her of high-handedness, given the security guard was only keeping her interests in mind.

A similar incident took place during Beyoncé’s concert when Selena Gomez was seen “yelling” at a security guard for his behavior towards her fans. Meanwhile, Queen Bey herself came under fire for leaving out songs from her album dedicated to the LGBTQ+ community in Dubai, where homosexuality is illegal, and for accepting the $24 million dollars deal in the country, with fans putting up posts like: “the music may be fire, but beyonce is still a billionaire, black capitalist. she does not care about the liberation of black people. or queer people. or anyone for that matter.”
