Taylor Swift scores Golden Globe nomination after record-breaking, billion-dollar ‘The Eras Tour’
Taylor Swift received her fifth Golden Globe nomination Monday thanks to her record-breaking “The Eras Tour.”
“Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” was nominated for one of the award show’s newest categories, “Cinematic and Box Office Achievement.” To qualify, the film needed to gross a minimum of $150 million worldwide with $100 million of that earned in the U.S. or Canada.
A representative for Swift did not respond to FOX Business’ immediate request for comment.
The box office achievement category nominated eight films, including “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,” “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” “Oppenheimer,” “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,” “Mission: Impossible -Dead Reckoning,” “John Wick: Chapter 4” and “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.”
Several years ago, the Oscars attempted to add a similar “popular film” category, but it proved to be an immensely unpopular decision and was dropped amid backlash.
