ustedes encasillan a taylor como una mujer seria y melancolica cuando ella es igual de intensa que el cuando hay eventos de musica se la pasa gritando y saltando.. solo digan que la quieren depresiva para poder sentirse identificadas con la miseria de sus vidas
is it just me or have fandoms become noticeably and increasingly more miserable (people with superiority complexes, i'm right and you're wrong mentality over the stupidest shit, unhinged stalker and parasocial behavior, straight up mean girl energy) the past couple of years
A breakdown hypothetically based on my class notes for entertainment law when we covered 360s:
Calculations below:
$70M ticket gross under the Tour Promoter Agreement. Before anyone sees a dime, the "Nut" (physical tour production) and structural expenses must be paid.
⢠Gross Ticket Receipts: +$70,000,000
⢠Less Production Costs (Stage, audio, travel, visas): -$20,000,000
⢠Less Independent Crew & Band Salaries: -$2,000,000
⢠Net Performance Profit Pool: $48,000,000
Step 2: The 360 Deal Label Touring Cut. The record label participates in multiple live revenue streams beyond music sales. In a major-label contract, they claim an ancillary percentage directly from the remaining touring profit pool.
⢠Label 15% 360 Touring Cut: -$7,200,000
⢠Adjusted Live Performance Net Balance: $40,800,000
Step 3: The Merchandising "Net Profit" Trap. A tour this size may generate $10,000,000 in gross merch sales. Under the labelās Collateral Entertainment Agreement, they control these rights. This is where Hollywood Accounting hits the hardest.
⢠Gross Merchandise Proceeds: +$10,000,000
⢠Less Venue Hall Fees (Concert venue commissions - 30%): -$3,000,000
⢠Less Costs (Mfg, shipping, credit card fees, 3% overhead): -$2,000,000
⢠True Net Merchandise Profit: $5,000,000
Under the 360 contract profit split, the artist receives a royalty rate of 75% of the Net Profits for headlining tours, while the label keeps the remaining 25%.
⢠Label 25% Merchandise Take: -$1,250,000
⢠Artist Net Merchandise Revenue (75%): +$3,750,000
⢠Total Combined Corporate Inflow (Tour + Merch): $44,550,000
Step 4: Now the artist's personal team takes their cuts from the combined corporate inflow landing in the artist's account.: Well-drafted contracts ensure the manager cannot commission the base production expenses.
⢠Booking Agent Fee (10%): -$4,455,000
⢠Personal Management Agreement Fee (20%): -$8,910,000
⢠Business Manager & Entertainment Lawyers (10%): -$4,455,000
⢠Total Team Take: -$17,820,000
⢠Remaining Corporate Cash: $26,730,000
Step 5: The Cross-Collateralization Clause. If the artist owes the label money letās say $10,000,000 unrecouped debt driven by high-budget music videos or album advancesāthe label exercises its right to seize that money straight from the tour balance.
⢠Seized by Label to Clear Record Debt: -$10,000,000
⢠Remaining Balance: $16,730,000
Step 6: Personal Out-of-Pocket Overage. This is where the artist must subtract the money they personally put up to cover budget overages during rehearsals to avoid high-interest label deficit loans.
Lets say a couple mill is 3MM
⢠Out-of-Pocket Overage Cost: -$3,000,000
⢠Artist Pre-Tax Cash: $13,730,000
The Final Settlement:
⢠Artist Pre-Tax Cash: $13,730,000
⢠Less Inevitable Income Taxes (approx. 40%): -$5,492,000
⢠TRUE Personal Net Take-Home: $8,238,000 (worst case scenario)
Its insane how the internet is this insanely toxic fandom environment but then you go to a concert or a con and everyone is so nice and genuinely just loves their thing and it feels SO different in person
there are so many celebrities I canāt stand but no one on here would ever know because I donāt sit on my phone all day tweeting about how much I hate them. people who do that that are mentally unwell
Ni siquiera soy fan de rosalia pero que ahora los fans de Shakira anden atancando a karol y a ella con el net worth demuestra la clase de basura de sus fans que ahora les importa nada su musica y solo lo q les gusta es rebajar y atacar a cualquiera, son adictos a la miseria
@cheaptimedisco Fun Fact: La Hacienda EspaƱola le reembolsarĆ” a Shakira mĆ”s de 70 MILLONES de dólares, esto es 5 veces mĆ”s dinero que toda la "fortuna" de la fallida cantante fracasada ROSALĆA ($14M).
