Taylor Swift seen tipping staff at Grammys afterparty
Taylor Swift generously tipped staff working at a Grammys afterparty after leaving the awards show empty-handed earlier this month.
The “Shake It Off” songstress was seen in a video posted to X Tuesday walking through a hallway with her posse when she turned to tell four employees, “Thank you so much for all your hard work.”
She then backtracked and passed money out to the service workers.
“We appreciate you so much,” one employee told Swift, 35.
The “Love Story” singer appeared in good spirits for the outing despite not winning in any of the six categories she was nominated for on Feb. 2.
An insider told Page Six that Swift “[felt] honored to have been nominated among so many other incredibly talented artists.”
“Taylor had an amazing time at the Grammys,” we’re told. “She had a blast hanging out with friends, chatting and partying with everybody.”
Swift, meanwhile, isn’t a stranger to tipping workers and was previously seen giving a $100 bill to kitchen staff at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass., in December 2023.
A picture of the exchange instantly went viral on social media after the pop star watched her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, and the Kansas City Chiefs defeat the New England Patriots from her VIP suite.
The workers receiving the tips were believed to have been her suite’s food servers and runners.
Swift also generously gave a $100 bill to a ticket taker working at Highmark Stadium for the Chiefs vs. Buffalo Bills game in January 2024.
“She’s a sweetie pie. Very down to earth,” employee Jerris Rainey told 7 News Buffalo at the time.
“I just wanted to just see her, and she you know she stopped, and she asked me if I worked at the stadium,” Rainey added.
“I said yes, and she asked if she could give me a tip. She gave me $100 and then she asked if I wanted to take a picture with her and I said yes.”
Swift’s tipping streak continued into the 2024-25 NFL season, as she passed out money to workers at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., in December.
The “Cruel Summer” singer also took the time to FaceTime the wife of a security guard.
Swift likely tipped those working at Super Bowl 2025 after watching the Chiefs lose against the Philadelphia Eagles 22-40 on Sunday.
The hitmaker appeared stressed throughout the sporting match and has since been “comforting” Kelce after the devastating loss.
