Say what you will about Taylor Swift, but she’s never going to be the one who’s too drunk to speak. In the wake of the shooting that left one woman dead, Swift made two donations of $50,000 to Lisa Lopez-Galvan’s family, per People. “Sending my deepest sympathies and condolences in the wake of your devastating loss. With love, Taylor Swift,” the singer wrote on Lopez-Galvan’s GoFundMe page. As of February 16, the page had raised over $200,000, and Swift was featured as the top donor.
As a billionaire, Swift has historically given back. Billboard traced her generosity to 2011, when she donated $70,000 in books to her hometown library. From pledging $1 million to aid those displaced by massive flooding in Louisiana, to supporting survivors of sexual assault and donating money to help fans with cancer pay their medical bills, Swift may be one of the most philanthropic celebrities. Her generous donation to Lopez-Galvan’s family isn’t out of character, but it is worlds apart from Travis Kelce’s reaction.
For example, Kelce’s selfies with cops and drunken singing angered some fans. “Not a good look IMO for him a few hours after a person was killed and others wounded,” one person said (via the Daily Mail). “I can smell the liquor through my phone. He looks really concerned,” someone else added (via the Daily Mail). Naturally, everyone wondered what Swift thinks of her boyfriend’s messy behavior, but to date, she hasn’t spoken about it.
