Who would have thought that in 2022 Taylor Swift would lead to the possible downfall of Ticketmaster??
As we reported earlier on Friday, the influential songstress addressed the company’s epic fiasco surrounding the presale of her Eras Tour Verified Fans tickets on Tuesday. While Live Nation Entertainment — Ticketmaster’s owner — placed blame on Tay and her Swifties, the 32-year-old wrote that it was really the ticketing agency who failed! Her loyal followers had plenty to say about all the drama though, continuing to take entertainment company to task in the hours after their fave’s statement! In all, the star expressed being peeved by the whole process:

Despite Taylor’s not-so-swift response, some of her followers took to Twitter, writing:
Amid her response, news also broke on Friday about the Department of Justice opening an investigation into Ticketmaster’s parent company, Live Nation Entertainment. It was reported to The New York Times from two people close to the situation, which will be focused on the abuse of power with its supposed “multibillion-dollar” monopoly.
Snap, snap!!
The antitrust probe isn’t entirely thanks to Taylor, though, as one of the sources shared Justice Department staff have for months been contacting different venues and ticket agencies about how the industry has been affected, particularly in terms of “Live Nation’s practices.” As of the time the outlet published their piece, the Justice Department declined to comment (of course, it’s an active investigation) and Live Nation had yet to speak out.
