Video Of Taylor Swift's Sweet Gesture At Grammys Goes Viral After She Was Booed At Super Bowl

A video of the singer handing out cash tips to service workers as she was leaving the Grammys has gone viral after she was met with boos for simply attending the Super Bowl.

A clip of Taylor Swift's act of kindness seen at the Grammys has gone viral in the wake of the booing she was subjected to during the Super Bowl.

The viral clip was from the 67th Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on February 3, exactly a week before the Super Bowl took place at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.


It showed the "Tortured Poets Department" singer leaving the ceremony with her entourage through the back door of the Crypto.com Arena.

When she passed a group of four staffers in the hallway, Swift retraced her steps to hand each employee some cash and thanked them before rejoining her group to exit.

Here is the clip.

A week later, Swift attended the Super Bowl to cheer on her beau, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

When her face appeared on the jumbotron for the first time in the game, she was relentlessly booed.

Social media users wondered why a high-profile individual like Swift, who is consistently kind, would be deserving of such public scorn with the booing.

She is repeatedly seen supporting fellow artists and giving special attention to adoring fans whenever possible, which can be evidenced in these examples.

Her stopping to thank the Crypto.com Arena employees was another validation that she is a thoughtful person, regardless of what people think of her music.



Many people defended Swift to skeptics who accused her of staging the video to elicit sympathy in response to the Super Bowl heckling that came afterward.

The billionaire music icon is known for her generosity.

When the U.S. leg of her Eras Tour kicked off in 2023 and became a pop cultural phenomenon, raking in $1 billion in sales, Swift shared the wealth by giving bonuses totaling $55 million to her production crew, including her dancers, riggers, sound technicians, and catering, among others, according to People magazine.

TMZ also reported that Swift gave truckers on her tour $100,000 each for hauling all of her equipment across the country as an "end of the tour" bonus as the U.S. leg was wrapping up.

The worldwide tour was consistently sold out and generated revenue for every city stop.

By the time the tour ended in Vancouver, British Columbia, on December 8, 2024, it had grossed a record-breaking $2 billion in ticket sales across its 21-month run, making the Eras Tour the highest-grossing tour in history.

Trump's Truth Social Platform Has A New AI Tool—And Trump's Not Gonna Like What It Has To Say

President Donald Trump regularly uses his social media platform Truth Social to attack his opponents and lie profusely, but the site's new "Truth Search AI" tool is unlikely to win his favor because it actually—get this—tells the truth about him and his policies.

A test conducted by the center-right news and commentary site The Bulwark found that the tool, which Truth Social debuted shortly after Trump signed an executive order to counter the use of “Woke AI” in the federal government, actually tells the truth about everything from his widely unpopular tariffs to the 2020 election results.

Trump Just Bragged That Everything In The Oval Office Is 'Real Gold'—And Even Laura Ingraham Isn't Buying It

President Donald Trump received a dubious reaction from Fox News personality Laura Ingraham after he touted the Oval Office's gold decor as "real gold" while giving her a tour.

The Oval Office has been significantly revamped since Trump took office in January—it features, among other things, fireplace adorned with gold cherubs and medallions, surrounded by portraits of American statesmen in ornate gold frames and shelves filled with gilded figurines, urns, and freshly installed Rococo mirrors.

Sydney Sweeney Speaks Out After 'Christy' Biopic Has One Of Worst Box Office Openings Of All Time

Sydney Sweeney can land a punch, but maybe not at the box office. Her latest film, Christy, a biopic about trailblazing boxer Christy Martin, landed a hard blow but barely connected with the audience, opening to a paltry $1.3 million.

That’s not just a loss; it’s a technical knockout in the “worst wide release openings ever” category, according to Box Office Mojo. For films debuting in over 2,000 theaters, Christy ranks at No. 12 overall and No. 9 when excluding rereleases.
