We're simply existing in Taylor Swift's realm.

The singer who gained fame as "The Blank Space" is not only a recent billionaire, Time Magazine Person of the Year, and Billboard record-setting artist, but she is also the hottest act of 2023.

This week, StubHub released its "2023 Year in Live Experiences" report, which ranks the top events of the year based on ticket sales.

The pop superstar, who is 33 years old, took the No. 1 spot with 66 events as of November 28.

Coldplay was the second most searched artist on StubHub, with fans searching for their tour dates 127% less than Swift.

StubHub's rankings were determined by global ticket sales on both StubHub North America and Viagogo internationally.

Beyoncé, Morgan Wallen, Adele, and Coldplay followed Swift in the top five rankings.

Adele, a British singer, had the highest average ticket price on the resale website at $1,243.96, despite not being the queen of ticket sales like Swift. This was due to her Las Vegas residency being held in a smaller venue compared to Swift's massive stadium tour.

The only four women in the top 10 artists on Spotify accounted for 73% of the overall sales for the year, which includes Swift, Beyoncé, Adele, and Pink.
