"Pop superstar Taylor Swift made headlines last year with her highly publicized wedding to actor Joe Alwyn, but the celebration came with a hefty price tag for New York City taxpayers. According to a new report, the city paid out over $160,000 for a wedding weekend permit, which included police overtime and other expenses. The permit, which was granted to Swift's team, allowed for a private concert and other festivities to take place on the Upper East Side. Critics are now questioning whether the cost was worth it, especially given the city's ongoing budget struggles."
