Yeah, but who cares. Everything Taylor does is going to have a PR angle, she’s the biggest celebrity in the world. I’d rather her make news for giving insane bonuses to everyone she works with then make news for being stingy. |

My point is everything this lady does does not have to be news. If she gave people bonuses privately people might find out but she had to film it for the Tay glorification. Girlfriend has an enormous ego that she constantly feeds with money from these forlorn 20 something who would buy Taylor's bottes bathwater. |
I don’t disagree that everything she does is news. That’s what happens you have something like 250 million followers. But she would’ve made news if she was stingy and gave no bonuses, so it’s better to make news for doing something nice. |

Agree, plus this news has the added bonus of publicly acknowledging her dancers, musicians, production crew, drivers, etc. That’s not done nearly enough in the music industry, and hopefully it creates some copycats who will also be as generous with their own tour crew (I’m sure not nearly to this level for anyone except maybe Beyonce, of course — this tour was crazy successful). |
This really struck me. I can't begin to imagine how difficult it was to meet those families and then go out and perform with a smile on her face. The Taylor haters will find fault with everything she does. It's nothing new. It's amazing she's able to stay as grounded as she does. Being the biggest celebrity in the world comes with a big price tag. I love the behind the scenes look at the tour. I hope there's an episode that shows more of the planning process. |
I highly doubt plenty of celebrities give bonuses on or even near this level. A bit of self-endorsement by Swift or not, publicizing this is a good thing for those behind the scenes. Taylor is the story already - might as well use the platform. |
I love that she made it public. It just makes the other billionaires who are paying minimum wages and not giving bathroom brakes to their employees look like total psychopaths. |
She addressed in the documentary- she wants essentially to challenge other artists to do the same and normalize it. I think that’s a good thing. |
| She is very generous with her people. Some hags here always come out wjth their claws criticizing every move she makes, no matter how positive. |
The way you follow her obsessively, while hating her, is psychotic. |
Hard to know and judge because the percentage of her wealth she gave away is probably not all that high. I guess a starving artist should give away their instruments? Who knows! |
Yeah, that’s the message exactly. You’re just brilliant. /s Do you think the people on the receiving end of those checks cared two shits what percentage of her wealth those checks represented when they went to cash what was life changing checks? |
+1 Is it the same weirdo who just can't stand it when Taylor Swift is praised in any way? |
