She may lack in dancing but it's still a physically demanding tour. Four hour shows three to four times a week for any artist would be physically demanding

But compared to numerous pop stars that dance for 2+ hour straight per night does not compare. Not saying Taylor doesn't work hard but to even consider her for this list is ridiculous.

Beyonce.

Singing, dancing, having a lot of props and what not for 3 hours IS physically demanding.

I swear people keep adding up to an hour every time this show gets mentioned 

Bey tours 

Confessions Tour, the Eras Tour, Born This Way Ball Tour 

How we're on page 4 and nobody mentioned Janet Her tours are by far the most physically demanding

The ERAS tour ....was physically demanding to get through. Yikes

Madonna's Drown

All P!nk's tour

The unserious Taylor mentions

MDNA if we considering the overall view of the tour. My show in particular though... she skipped the whole first section (the most physically demanding) 

 

So probably Sticky & Sweet. 

which show was this?

Formation Tour for sure. Beyoncé at the peak of her performing prowess. 

The Eras Tour methinks.

People aren't saying Taylor didn't work hard on the Eras Tour but most performers do what she does at a minimum then add more strenuous things like constant dance routines and ariel work and so on, which would take much more of a toll on the body.

The Born This Way Ball literally broke Gaga's hip, I don't think you can get more physically demanding than that.

Cause the OP is basically asking for the shows people have seen, I don't think 99% of atrl attended any of her shows outside State of the World or Together Again (or simply don't count her as a pop show when she very much is that)

The Beyonce Experience 

I Am Worl Tour

Mrs Carter Tour

Formation Tour 

 

Madonna tours pre Rebel Heart

 

Pink since she began the acrobatics

 

All Gaga tours and special mention to the Chromatica Ball where she didnt stop dancing for the WHOLE set,her true stage comeback 

 

Shakira

 

Janet

 

 

Not sure why people are discrediting Taylor?  Performing up and down the length of a football field for 3 and a half hours with 0 break is pretty physically demanding.

Yes people aren't saying that which why I don't get why people keep bringing this up, most performers do what she does on stage without all the extra stuff like dancing and ariel work. 
A tightly choreographed show is much more exhausting on the body than lightly dancing I don't think anyone can disagree with that. A Janet show is going to be more exhausting that a Taylor show.

She doesn't sing so no. 

 

OT Definity Katy - even her Witness tour was so intense - she works the stage and the mic is ON from start to finish.

I'm sure she has breaks.
