Dans un communiqué commun, le ministère de la Culture et l’Office de tourisme de Singapour ont indiqué que les autorités avaient travaillé directement avec les organisateurs de la tournée pour mettre au point les modalités de cet événement.

La semaine dernière, le Premier ministre thaïlandais, Srettha Thavisin, avait affirmé que la cité-Etat avait conclu un accord d’exclusivité avec Taylor Swift afin qu’elle ne se produise qu’à Singapour dans la région du sud-est asiatique.

Les autorités de Singapour se sont refusées à révéler le montant de la subvention, et n’ont pas indiqué si un accord d’exclusivité avait été conclu, s’abritant derrière la confidentialité des contrats d’affaires. Elles ont souligné que les concerts de la star devraient «  générer des bénéfices significatifs pour l’économie de Singapour  ».

Une requête rarement acceptée

Un vétéran de l’industrie du spectacle qui n’a pas souhaité être nommé a expliqué à l’AFP qu’il «  n’était pas inhabituel de demander  » des contrats d’exclusivité, mais qu’il «  n’était pas si habituel que des artistes accèdent à cette demande  ».

Après la pandémie de Covid-19, Singapour a attiré de nombreux artistes d’envergure internationale, dont le groupe sud-coréen féminin de K-pop Blackpink, les chanteurs et musiciens britanniques Harry Styles et Ed Sheeran et le groupe pop rock britannique Coldplay.

Taylor Swift doit donner début mars six concerts à guichets fermés au Stade national de Singapour où plus de 300.000 spectateurs sont attendus. Après Singapour, la chanteuse poursuivra sa tournée en Europe. Les bénéfices de cette tournée sont estimés à la somme astronomique de 2 milliards de dollars.
