Taylor Swift Fans Spend Over $30,000 On Their Idol And Have Never Been Happier
Two Australian Taylor Swift fans have made headlines for their unwavering dedication to the pop superstar, spending tens of thousands of euros to fuel their passion.
The Cost of Devotion: Millie Porter and Pierre Milkins
Millie Porter and Pierre Milkins, two die-hard Taylor Swift fans from Australia, have gone to great lengths—and expenses—to show their love for the American singer. Their spending habits highlight just how far some fans will go to support their favorite artist.
Millie Porter, for instance, attended all three of Taylor Swift’s recent concerts in Melbourne. In addition to purchasing concert tickets, Millie bought several pieces of merchandise, including outfits and friendship bracelets, all related to Swift’s tour. She estimates her total expenditure on the Australian leg of the tour to be between AU$7,000 and AU$9,000 (approximately €4,250 to €5,460). Despite the hefty price tag, Millie has no regrets. "I've never been happier," she told the Australian daily The Age.
Pierre Milkins: A Budget Gone Wild
Pierre Milkins, another passionate Swiftie, also found himself spending far more than he originally planned. He initially set a budget for his Taylor Swift spending, but quickly exceeded it. "I had a budget in mind, but I think I doubled it. I planned on buying three things and ended up buying nine," Pierre admitted. He even went as far as to set up a credit card specifically for his Taylor Swift purchases.
When Taylor Swift performed in Australia, Pierre spent around €850 on various items, while Millie limited her spending to €424. However, over the years, the duo has spent a combined total of at least AU$30,000 (around €18,000) on everything Taylor Swift-related.
A Passion Worth the Price
The substantial amounts spent by Millie and Pierre demonstrate the financial commitment some fans are willing to make for their idols. Their story is a testament to the powerful connection fans can feel with artists and how that connection can translate into significant financial investments.
For these two Australian fans, the joy and fulfillment they derive from following Taylor Swift are worth every penny. Their dedication exemplifies how far some people are willing to go to celebrate their love for music and their favorite artist.
