    Hot damn. 2.9% increase in quarterly GDP, 2.3% annual. And that's of SG's GDP.

    Maybe Salceda was right to complain about SG monopolizing the Swift tour. You could argue that economic benefit should have been spread out across ASEAN, but SG effectively got all of it by getting exclusivity.

    Kids don't have life savings. Many are YOLO-ing their way through their 20's.

    Madami Pinoy nag expect dati na mag stop sa Pinas si Taylor. Maliit ang smart arena and Araneta Coliseum. The only arena big enough for her is Phillipine arena. Pero it will just go to waste. Walang business around the arena na makikinabang. Walang hotel na magfu fully booked. Walang masyadong commercial establishment around it. Mga INC lang kikita [emoji28]

    soon pwede na sila sa kjc king dome sa quiboloy kingdom, pero si quiboloy lang kikita...kung hindi siya mapurnada ng fbi.

    i've read na 75k daw ang capacity ng king dome. medyo hirap din ang accomodation doon kung saka-sakali.

    hindi pa pala pumunta si swift dito? akala naka-perform na dati

    Parang 2014 yata nag tour sya dito. But she was not that famous back then and for 1 album lang yun. Unlike this current tour eh for all her albums and 3 hours long.

    Makes me think she must have spent a lot of time in gym for her to be able to sing and dance straight for 3 hours.

    One source said she actually sang while jogging on a treadmill to prepare for one of her concerts. I have to agree with you though, she must be in really good shape to have pulled off something like that.

    Lip sync and auto tune.

    Mahirap yun 1.5hrs of singing and dancing.

    So dinadaya sa singing part, they’re more focus on the dancing, dapat insync with the dancers.
