Singer Taylor Swift is outraged by delays, sky-high prices and disruptions in ticket sales for her fan-anticipated tour as the U.S. Department of Justice investigates the company that handles it, The Gardian writes.
Taylor Swift responded to criticism about Ticketmaster's handling of sales for her upcoming Eras tour by writing that it was "excruciating for me to just watch mistakes happen with no recourse."
Swift's first public comments about the erratic ticketing came on the same day that the New York Times reported on the U.S. Department of Justice's antitrust investigation of Ticketmaster's parent company. The investigation, which preceded the Swift controversy, seeks to determine whether Live Nation Entertainment abused its power in the multibillion-dollar entertainment industry.
Record demand for Swift's 2023 tour, her first in five years, has brought down the company's Web site, forcing customers to wait in line for hours for "presale" tickets.
Earlier it was reported that tickets for Taylor Swift's tour were on sale for $22,000.
