Her sold-out Eras tour is set to become the most profitable ever, grossing £2billion in ticket sales.
But Taylor Swift has also donated large sums to charities in each of the 20 states where she performed on the North American leg of her world tour.
The singer asked charities not to reveal the amounts she has donated, but the sums appear to be huge. Feeding Tampa Bay, a Florida food bank, said their generosity would provide 125,000 meals.
Another Seattle food bank wrote: “You have asked us not to share the number with you, but I can tell you the donation will provide thousands of pounds of fresh fruit and vegetables for our more than 400 food banks across western Washington. “
In Pittsburgh, a food bank said, “Your donation will ensure thousands of our neighbors have the food they need to thrive.”

And the Santa Clara Food Bank in California thanked her for helping feed the 500,000 people they help each month, adding that her donation also drew a flood of donations from fans, with the donations growing by 43 percent rose.
Ms Swift – who has an estimated private fortune of £580million – has also been generous to tour staff, paying out a total of £43million in bonuses to artists and crew. And she surprised the haulage staff by giving each of them a “life-changing” £79,000 gift.
She also paid more than £86,000 last week to book 197 rooms for her crew for one night at the five-star Four Seasons hotel in Mexico.
The Eras tour is set to take place in the UK next summer and charities in the cities where it performs are hoping it will continue with its generous donations.
When tickets went on sale last month, the huge demand brought ticket sales to a halt and hundreds of thousands of seats at stadiums including Wembley in London and Anfield in Liverpool sold out in minutes.

Fans were “devastated,” and some are said to have suffered anxiety attacks because of the stress.
Ms Swift showed her philanthropic side during the pandemic when she and her mum donated £39,000 to a mother of five who lost her husband to the virus.
She also donated £784,000 to help Nashville after the deadly tornadoes of 2020.
