Stephen A. Smith is one of the biggest names in the television and the basketball world. He gained fame amongst basketball fans for his rather intriguing takes related to the sport and his screen presence. His unapologetic attitude has made him a fan favorite and many viewers consider him one of the most entertaining analysts in the world.
Smith, on his show, said, “I paid for tickets for two of my daughters and their friends. I’m still broke. It’s ridiculous. Do you know they are reporting that when her concert concludes she will have made over a $1,000,000,000.” While Smith seemed to imply he was forced to buy those tickets, it turns out he thinks that Swift deserves every penny she’s making as he hailed as an exceptional musical performer, leaving her audience wanting more.
