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.
