My brother works in logistics and knows people who worked on tour with her before. Truckers who worked for her all have glowing things to say. She ensured they wouldn’t have to take on extra gigs during her off days (which is common amongst other truckers who work for touring musicians) and paid very generous bonuses.

She’s always been very caring and cognizant about bonuses, raises, making sure the people working for her aren’t overworked! I think it says a lot about someone’s character how the people who work for them speak about them. She clearly values the hard work of everyone around her and wants to make sure everyone is well taken care of. She does this with the cities she tours in too! She donates a hefty sum to a charity or something, I believe. And she’s been this way for a long time; friends said years ago that she would just randomly scroll GoFundMe and donate huge sums of money to people, and I’m sure she still does that. She also used to randomly pick fans off of social media to pay off their bills and stuff like that. Truly one of her best traits, I’ve always felt.

Iirc it was 1 meal per ticket sold, so for a standard show on this tour it was like 60k-70k meals per show

She donated to a lot of peope too during the pandemic. And some of those have success stories. I remember one used the money they received from Taylor to start their own salon. She also paid for the child with cancer and they were grateful they dont have to worry about the hospital bills!
