"BAD BLOOD" AND A GOOD HEART

Taylor Swift Donates $50k to Fan Battling Cancer

Big Machine's Taylor Swift continues to amaze. After 11-year-old fan Naomi Oakes posted a video declaring Tay's "Bad Blood" her fight song in her battle with her newly diagnosed leukemia, the pop queen donated $50k to her GoFundMe page.


Due to intensive treatment, Naomi's family shared that she can no longer attend Taylor's 8/18 concert in Phoenix.

Tay Tay, whose 1989 passed the 5x platinum mark this week, wrote, "To the beautiful and brave Naomi, I’m sorry you have to miss it, but there will always be more concerts. Let’s focus on getting you feeling better. I’m sending the biggest hugs to you and your family."

Yesterday, the family posted a thank you video, which is incredibly sweet and might cause you to start blubbering like a baby at your desk. You have been warned.


We're certainly #TeamNaomi and #TeamTaylor.
