Taylor Swift might say, “The best people in life are free,” but when it comes to her tour crew, she’s willing to spend her last coin to ensure they’re well-fed. The 14-time Grammy winner is reported to have coughed up a big chunk of change to provide some of the finest food and drink for her Eras Tour team, which is made up of hundreds of performers and crew members.


According to a new report, Swift is said to have spent $300,000 on tasty treats for her team during just two stops of the Eras Tour’s European leg.

A catering consultant from the singer’s team recently spoke to The Sun about Swift’s shows in Lisbon, Portugal, and Madrid, Spain, where she allegedly spared no expense to give her team the five-star treatment. “Taylor is a woman who has very good taste,” the inside source told The Sun, adding that the “Fortnight” songstress “loves to eat nice food and drinks.”

Sometimes you have artists that want very basic and low-quality food and drinks,” added the insider, who has reportedly worked with U2, The Rolling Stones and Maroon 5 in the past. “[Swift’s] list of food and beverage is superb though, with many top, five-star choices.”

While in Lisbon, the 34-year-old musician is said to have spent thousands of dollars on some Portuguese barbecue (known as frango de churrasco), as well as a “huge order” of 1,000 “pasteis de natas,” an egg custard tart pastry.

But in Spain is where Swift is said to have flashed the most dollars, splurging on $11,500 worth of Jamon Iberico de Bellota (a fine ham), as well as over 400 pounds of paella, costing her a cool $20,000, per The Sun’s report.

At that’s just a small portion of the delicacies Swift provided for the team, as some of the other catered items are said to include various meats, cheese, fruits, post-show beverage refreshments and more.
