The third thing to talk about is after the Wednesday podcast. Now, granted it came from the sun. I haven’t seen this reported anywhere else in the sun. You gotta take things with a grain of salt. I’m gonna take things rather loosely with them because they have the tendency to exaggerate, but according to sources closer to them, Taylor Swift and her team are talking about doing a residency in Las Vegas.
And as much as I would love to see Taylor Swift again, here’s why. I don’t know if that’s a great idea. And she could end up doing one and it’s, I’m not gonna tell her what to do with her career, but we just saw her do 149. Concerts for the ERAS tour in 47 different cities, right, or whatever. It ended up being 149 concerts.
Over a year and a half, and every single one of those concerts was in a football stadium that held 55 to 60,000 or more. She never performed in arenas, the sphere in Las Vegas, while a great venue, and it’s really a really cool place to see a concert. I haven’t seen a concert there. I’ve only seen postcard from Earth, which is their daily show.
But everybody that’s gone to the concerts, whether it’s been you two or the Grateful Dead. Or Backstreet Boys who are there right now, they’ve said it’s just, it’s fascinating because not only are the acoustics great, but the video monitor on the screen is unbelievable. Here’s the deal. I’ve read that the sphere, it holds 18,500.
If you add in the people standing on the floor, a thousand, 1500 more people, so it holds 20,000. She just did 149 dates in front of 60,000. She can do a sphere residency if she wants. And it’s one of these things where maybe for someone who just came off a year and a half tour where she went to all these different places and she was probably worn out from all this travel, doing a residency maybe makes sense for her.
I kept saying on Saturday she was either 33 or 34. I forgot her age. She’s 35, gonna be 36 in December. Maybe she doesn’t want to do that at least right now. Another touring. Tour where she’s going to 50 different cities during the course of her tour. Maybe a residency is what she wants. She just stay in one place and she doesn’t have to pack up her equipment and go everywhere and get all the trucks moving and just, Hey, I’m just gonna be at one place for the length of however long her residency is.
First off, if she even does this. The residency would have to be at least a year or a year and a half. She’s not gonna do a residency. I’m like, yeah, I’m gonna do two months in Vegas, you know, every weekend for two months. That’s not enough. Her fans would go nuts. And the other thing, as a Taylor Swift fan, I just, I’m telling you right now, knowing what the tickets were to the ERAS tour, if she did a residency at the sphere in Las Vegas, I’m telling you, you’re not gonna get a ticket for less than three to $5,000.
There’s no way. There’s no way. There’s only 20,000 seats in that thing. You saw what the errors tour nosebleeds were 700 to a thousand by the end of her tour, and that was on her hundred and 40th to 149th Show. Can you imagine what they are for a 20,000 seat arena? Not to mention, yeah, it would be a boon for Vegas because every time she’s performing that weekend, they are going to jack up the hotel prices by 2, 3, 4 times.
They’re already pricing out tourists in Las Vegas. As much as I love that place, I see it with my own two eyes. It’s very frustrating to go there now with how expensive and ridiculously expensive the most basic things are. It is what it is. I mean, that’s what I’ve accepted it as. Now I’m just saying I’ve been going there for 20 years and it wasn’t like this 20 years ago.
I understand things change, inflation, whatever, but this is getting outta hand what they’re charging now in Vegas for rooms, for basic necessities. It’s, it’s a joke. But I’m telling you, if Taylor Swift had a residency there for a year, year and a half, two years, you’re not gonna find a ticket on the market.
For less than 2,500, $3,000 because every seat in that arena is a good seat because you’re gonna get to see it on the giant screen. That is the sphere. I, she can do what she wants. And I, I, I’m just saying, if that were the case, unless I could somehow get tickets for her, I don’t know, seven 50 bucks or a thousand, I, I would never go out there for three, $5,000.
I’m telling you that’s what the tickets would be. If she had a residency there, and I think, and again, this was put out there by the sun. I have no idea if the sun is even remotely reliable when it comes to this. No idea. Because it’s the only outlet that I’ve seen reporting it. And all they said is, Hey, sources say Taylor’s team is thinking about a residency.
It’s like, and I do people understand what a residency in Vegas for Taylor Swift would entail? And the demand for tickets. Remember when the ERAS tour tickets went on sale and Ticketmaster crashed and people were in the queue getting tickets, and then we went and they hit checkout, they got re, they got kicked out and rebooted, and they had to start over again.
I’m just telling you, for the sphere in a place that only holds 20,000 max. There is no chance in hell you’re finding a ticket for less than three or $5,000. Now. Yeah, there will be some fans that absolutely will pay that, and the problem is she can’t control bots going on and purchasing tickets. There’s nothing you can do.
She could say, I’m opening up Taylor Swift tour tickets and creates her own website and says, you can only purchase tickets here. I’m not even using Ticketmaster. But the hackers will find a way to sign in and have numerous people buying numerous tickets right away. It’s just, there’s no way around it.
She did it for the Errors Tour, where yeah, if you did get in before Ticketmaster crashed, you were able to get cheaper seats, 250 bucks, 400 bucks, 500 bucks. You’re just never gonna be able to do that at Sphere with 20,000 seats. So honestly, I hope she doesn’t do it. I just hope she waits, gives herself a, I don’t know, another year.
Maybe a year and a half off. She deserves it. She did a year and a half tour with 149 dates that made $2 billion. She deserves to take some time off, even though she just released an album, or it’s coming on October 3rd. Take some time off, take a year off, and then maybe she does another tour and maybe she does go out.
Maybe this is what she wants to do. Maybe she wants to go to different cities, but I, I, I almost think she’s too big to do a residency in Las Vegas. I, I just. I don’t see it happening. Let’s talk a couple things going on in Bachelor in Paradise World. I gave you the spoilers on Friday. I told you that the final four couples that make it on Bachelor in Paradise are all still together.
To this day, only one of them is engaged, and that is Spencer and Jess. And then I also wanted to discuss one thing from the spoiler that I completely forgot. To mention in the spoilers on Friday is that this reunion show that tapes on September 3rd, it’s actually gonna be hosted by Wells, which the only reason Jesse Palmer would not be hosting the reunion show is because he’s doing filming for Golden Bachelor, and I don’t know where they’re at in filming on Golden Bachelor, but my guess is they’re overseas for overnights and final rose ceremony.
That’s why Jesse would not be able to host it. Because if he’s available, he’s hosting something Bachelor in Paradise Related. He was the host of the fricking show all summer long. And then to not have him as the host of reunion show, it’s because he’s got Golden Bachelor obligations, I’m assuming. But Wells is hosting that reunion show.
That tapes on September 3rd. And like I said, I don’t know when it airs. It’s not like they’re gonna hold it for a while. It tapes Wednesday, September 3rd. My guess is it probably airs that weekend. Maybe it airs the following Monday, I’m not sure, but I can’t imagine four or five days go by with that thing not airing.
And from everything I’m hearing, I’m hearing it’s gonna be on YouTube. Now, it might also be shown on Hulu, but I’m hearing it’s gonna air on YouTube. But as we get closer, a, B, C will officially make their announcement of when it’s coming. Just expect that. And then a few of you in the comments on my Instagram post and also in emails to me mentioned, Hey, you said that the only, the final four couples are still together.
Alicia did an interview last week where she said her and Sean got to talking after she had gone on, I think it was Bachelor, happy hour, right? She went on with Joe and Serena. And made a comment in regards to, well, if I would’ve gotten there earlier, I think I would’ve ended up with Dale, or I could have been dating Dale or something along those lines.
And Sean made a comment underneath that post and whatever the case may be. Alicia was at some sort of event last week and said, I spoke to Sean. Everything’s good between us. And I think some people took that to mean that they’re dating. I did not take it to mean that they’re dating and I haven’t heard that they’re dating.
I mean, I guess it’s possible, but I just took it to mean that they made up from, obviously there was a little tension there when she said what she said, but I don’t think they made up and decided to all of a sudden start dating again. That’s the impression I got. But I guess the good thing about the reunion show being filmed on September 3rd is everyone that takes the stage that day will be able to say, we’ve seen the whole season and now let’s talk about it.
Versus usually those reunion shows are filmed about a week and a half before they air, and the people that are at the reunion show will have seen, you know, either clips. Or everything that did go down in the final couple episodes that hadn’t aired by the time they went and filmed that reunion show. But now everyone will have seen everything and we’re gonna get an up to date update, I guess, if you wanna put it mildly.
We’re gonna be up to date on every single one of those people because they will have filmed that the day after the whole season finished airing. So look for that. A, B, C, I don’t know when they’re gonna make an official announcement, but it’s gotta be coming soon. Right? It has to be. And then the only other thing I wanted to talk about with anything bachelor in Paradise related was, I know a lot of you asked me about the money situation.
The only thing that I can clarify that I do know for sure, remember in my post and what I said on the podcast was, I don’t know how this money situation plays out. I don’t know if it’s voted on by everybody else. I don’t know if it’s, there’s a final challenge and whoever wins the final challenge also wins money.
What I do know is that it is not a money or love choice. It’s not like they have to choose money or love From everything that I have gathered, that’s not what I have heard. So I guess heap that in your head. There is one other thing I wanted to mention in regards to the reunion show. I think I had alluded to it.
I can’t even remember what I wrote in the Instagram post and what I said in the podcast on Friday, but from everything also that I’ve been able to gather, I don’t think the final 10 couples are gonna be in attendance. I don’t think all the goldens are gonna be there. Meaning, I don’t think Gary and Leslie are gonna be there.
And I don’t think Kim and Faith are gonna be at the reunion show. I think it’s gonna be Keith and Kathy because they finished in fifth place and then all the younger Golden couples who made it to the game portion of the show, and that’s it. So I would say eight couples total are making it to the reunion show, but the goldens outside of Keith and Kathy are not coming.
And very briefly. Last night, big brother Rachel Riley, basically saved her ass ’cause she was probably going home if she did not win. And somebody from her mini alliance, Keanu or Will didn’t win HOH. She was getting put up and probably unless she saved herself with power of veto or saved herself on the BB blockbuster.
If she was up there on eviction night, she was probably going home no matter who she was sitting against. But she wins HOH. She puts up Vince, Mickey, and Morgan. So much has been going on on the live feeds yet again, and it’s kind of back and forth. Spoiler coming in. 3, 2, 1. Power of veto, as we know, happens on Saturday and Lauren ended up winning the Power of Veto.
We will find out later today what Lauren decided to do with Power of Veto, but what I can say is she has basically said. If I use it, it would be on Vince. I’m definitely not using it on Mickey. Definitely not using it on Morgan. Again, things can change in the last 24 hours, but at the time of this recording, she’s leaning towards not even using it at all.
But I know Mickey is also talking to her and telling her, well, if you do use it, numbers can maybe be in your favor down the line. So Mickey is working her. Rachel’s telling her, Hey, it’s your power of veto. Do what you want. If you decide to use it. I do have somebody in mind, but she’s not telling Lauren who it is.
And Lauren is basically telling Mickey, gosh, if I knew for a fact that Rachel would put up Keanu, if I used the power of veto on Vince, I’m, I would lean more towards using it. But Rachel won’t tell her who she’s leaning towards as a fourth nominee. So that’s what’s going on. Not to mention Riley’s creepiness continues on the live feeds.
There are Instagram accounts, there are Twitter accounts that are not just saying and relaying what he is saying to her on the live feeds, but pulling the clips and. You can’t tell me that this guy has absolutely brainwashed Katherine. I know she’s an adult. I know she can think for herself. I’m really curious to see what guys like Jimmy and Zach say now that they’re out of the house.
Because it seems like in all these clips, it’s just with Riley and Katherine, maybe nobody else in the house is seeing this. We as an audience are seeing it on the live feeds, but it is very disturbing the way he talks to her, the way he controls her. I, I, she has, she has got a baseball bat to the head.
Coming to her, not, I’m not saying by him, I’m saying when she gets outta that house, whenever that may be. What I’m saying is, and maybe that wasn’t a great analogy, but I’m saying like she’s gonna be smacked upside the head with a reality of holy crap. You know, you can say what you want about, oh, I fell for him in here, and you don’t understand what we went through.
But I’m telling you, these people care about what the public thinks. When 90% of the public wants you to run for the hills from that guy, not to mention she’s gonna find out about this guy’s current situation going on in his life. It seems like she is actually falling for him in the house and like I said, it’s going to be a bad upside the head to her and just a shock to the system when she gets out and realizes Riley is basically hated by everybody.
Nobody likes the way he treats her, and that’s gonna be hard for her to stay with him. Even though she’ll try, if she does, she would play the, you don’t know what I’ve been through card. You don’t know what we went through in that house. I, I’m sorry. We actually can watch it. Catherine, we’ve seen it with our own two eyes.
This guy is very controlling, very manipulative, and is trying to absolutely sucker into his one person cult and it seems to be working. Anyway. Thank you all for listening. I really appreciate it.
