Among Taylor Swift‘s massive entourage – which includes at least 50 truckers to transport her staging and costumes – are 15 hand-selected backup dancers who are no stranger to the revelries offered by a life on tour.
ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT’S DANCERS
While the troupe is mostly made up of women, it’s six male members – with their rippling physiques and photo-ready perma-tans – have emerged as something of a star attraction in their own right.
‘They cannot go anywhere without being swooned at by adoring fans,’ a source close to the dancers reveals. ‘They are recognized almost everywhere they go’.
SHE CONFIDES IN THEM
Taylor’s Swift troupe have become incredibly close with her – now she often confides in them as friends, especially when it comes to her relationship with Travis Kelce, it is gathered.
‘She relies on them, just as much as they rely on her,’ the insider said.
And while such a lengthy tour is no doubt grueling, Swift’s dancers tell friends feel like they have ‘got the golden ticket’ and are on ‘an adventure of a lifetime’.
When they aren’t rehearsing for hours on end (‘they constantly train and are always rehearsing,’ a source says), they enjoy exploring whichever city they are in together, heading to the beach and – of course – the best local nightclubs whenever possible.

SHE PAYS THEM MASSIVELY
And they’re making a pretty penny in the process. Indeed, Swift – who herself bags a staggering $13.6 million per show – is known for her generosity to employees.
‘They will each walk away with at least $500,000 from their salaries,’ a source says – and that’s before you consider the impact of the ‘Swift effect’ on their own celebrity and future job prospects.
As it is, Swift’s billion-dollar Eras Tour is into its fourteenth month and counting.
