「泰勒絲經濟學」（Taylornomics 或 Swiftonomics）一詞席捲全球，這不僅指泰勒絲（Taylor Swift）帶來的經濟效應，更反映了後疫情時代的消費行為。儘管未來經濟可能會衰退、物價上漲，但人們仍願意花費大筆金錢來彌補疫情期間減少的娛樂活動。這種現象與過去經濟蕭條時的「口紅效應」有所不同。當時，人們傾向購買較小的奢侈品以求心理安慰，而如今，他們則願意投入更多資金在娛樂和體驗上，以彌補疫情帶來的遺憾和損失。泰勒絲的全球巡演和音樂作品，正是這一現象的最佳例證。

Taylor Swift’s Impact in Singapore

Swift’s “Eras Tour” has not only made a significant impact in the United States but also in Singapore. Her concerts in Singapore attracted a large number of local fans as well as tourists from neighboring countries. These visitors contributed to increased hotel occupancy rates, and boosted revenues for restaurants and shopping centers. Specifically, the Singapore Tourism Board reported a surge in visitor numbers during Swift’s concert dates, resulting in millions of dollars in economic benefits.

Hotels reached record occupancy rates, and many restaurants and shops saw increased patronage, demonstrating the powerful economic stimulus provided by large cultural events (Northeastern Global News).

Swift’s influence extends beyond ticket sales. For instance, local businesses around concert venues saw a surge in revenue. Hotels were fully booked, restaurants were bustling with patrons, and even local transportation services experienced higher usage. This economic activity not only benefits in the short term but also contributes to long-term economic recovery and growth post-pandemic.

泰勒絲對新加坡的影響

泰勒絲的「時代巡演」不僅在美國產生了重大影響，還在新加坡帶來了顯著的經濟效應。她在新加坡的音樂會吸引了大量的本地粉絲以及來自鄰近國家的遊客。這些訪客增加了酒店入住率，提升了餐館和購物中心的收入。

具體而言，新加坡旅遊局報告稱，泰勒絲音樂會期間訪客人數激增，帶來了數百萬美元的經濟收益。酒店達到了創紀錄的入住率，許多餐館和商店也顧客盈門，顯示出大型文化活動強大的經濟刺激作用（Northeastern Global News）。

泰勒絲的影響不僅僅體現在門票銷售上。例如，音樂會場館周邊的本地企業收入大幅增加。酒店被訂滿，餐館顧客絡繹不絕，甚至當地的交通服務也使用頻繁。這種經濟活動不僅在短期內受益，還有助於疫情後的長期經濟復甦和增長。
