QUICK TAKES - Jan. 31, 2009
In her first major headlining tour, country upstart Taylor Swift will go straight to one of L.A.’s biggest stages. The teen singer will headline Staples Center on May 22 as part of a 52-date tour.
Tickets go on sale Feb. 6 via Ticketmaster.
While ticket prices have not been announced for the Los Angeles date, a press release promises that tickets in most markets will sell for $20 (not including applicable service fees).
Swift was the top-selling artist of 2008. Combined, her self-titled 2006 debut and her recently released “Fearless” sold more than 4 million copies in 2008, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
