'Ethical billionaire' Taylor Swift wins hearts with her generosity

A clip from Taylor Swift's latest docuseries, "The End of an Era", has racked up over 1.5 million views on a single X post. 

The heartwarming moment features Taylor handing out bonuses to her crew, leaving some of her Eras team members visibly emotional.

Fans are going wild in the comments, with one saying, "Taylor Swift is the first ethical billionaire." Another fan said  "Taylor handing out bonuses to the Eras crew got me sobbing, she is so kind."

Another clip from the docuseries went viral as  the singer recalls the murder of three girls in a stabbing spree in northern England at a dance class themed around her music.

The US pop star breaks down in tears in her documentary released Friday. 

Backstage footage from the Eras Tour showed the musician crying before meeting the families of victims of the Southport attack, which sparked Britain´s worst anti-migrant riots in decades.

Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, Bebe King, six, and Alice da Silva Aguiar, nine, were killed by teenager Axel Rudakubana during the July 2024 rampage in which 10 others were wounded, prompting an outpouring of grief in the UK and from Swift´s fans around the world.

"There was a horrible attack ... at a Taylor Swift themed dance party," Swift says in the documentary titled "The End of an Era", wiping away tears ahead of her sold-out concert at London´s Wembley Stadium in August.

"It´s going to be fine, because when I meet them, I´m not going to do this. I swear to God, I´m not going to do this," she said, before meeting survivors and families of the victims.

After the meeting, Swift is shown crying to her mother backstage, who comforts her.

"From a mental standpoint, I just do live in a reality that´s very unreal a lot of the time," Swift says in the Disney+ documentary.

"But it´s my job to kind of be able to handle all these feelings and then perk up immediately to perform. That´s just the way it´s got to be."

The London concert was also Swift´s return to the stage after her three Vienna shows were cancelled due to a failed bomb plot.

"Being afraid that something is going to happen to your fans is new," the BBC quoted Swift saying at the documentary´s New York premiere.

Rudakubana was jailed for life in January for his knife rampage.
