Taylor Swift leaves stadium worker in tears over remarkable generosity
Share and Follow

Taylor Swift has once again demonstrated that her generosity off the stage is as impressive as her musical talent. This time, her heartfelt gesture on Christmas Day brought a stadium worker to tears.

After the Kansas City Chiefs faced off against the Denver Broncos, the globally renowned pop star reportedly spread festive cheer at Arrowhead Stadium by personally tipping staff as she navigated through the venue.

One of the lucky recipients, catering attendant Robyn Gentry, recounted the touching event in a Facebook group dedicated to Swift. Although the post remains unverified, it has captured the attention of fans and circulated widely across social media platforms.

According to Gentry’s story, she was on duty for the holiday game when security ushered a small party through her area. Among them were Chiefs’ tight end Travis Kelce, his mother Donna Kelce, and Swift herself.

Gentry fondly remembered Swift warmly wishing employees a merry Christmas as she passed by, taking a moment to stop and personally thank her for working on the holiday.

‘She came toward me and said thank you so much for working on Christmas, please take this – Merry Christmas,’ Gentry claimed, explaining that Swift discreetly placed cash in her hand before moving on with Kelce.

It wasn’t until moments later that Gentry realized just how meaningful the gesture was, as the cash totaled a whopping $600.

‘My whole paycheck for two weeks. I had just dropped that much for Christmas for eight kids,’ she shared, adding that the realization overwhelmed her so deeply that she immediately began crying.

Gentry went on to reveal she even framed one of the bills as a keepsake and described the moment as something she would never forget.

‘Taylor and Travis are beautifully kind people,’ she wrote. ‘It’s very true – incredible and very kind people. Merry Christmas and happy birthday to me.’

The heartfelt story quickly resonated with fans, many of whom praised Swift for consistently using her platform – and her wealth – to uplift everyday workers.

The Daily Mail reached out to Swift’s representative for comment at the time but has not heard back. 

Her incredible tips came the same week news broke that she donated $1 million to charity Feeding America. 

The organization made the announcement with an Instagram post on Tuesday with a caption that read: ‘We’re grateful to @taylorswift for standing with families facing hunger. 

‘Her generosity reminds us what’s possible when we come together to help ensure full tables this holiday season and beyond.’

This is far from the first time Swift has been recognized for her generosity.

During past NFL appearances, she has been spotted tipping ticket takers, security staff and custodial workers at both Arrowhead Stadium and Highmark Stadium.

She has also made a habit of stopping by stadium kitchens to personally thank and tip chefs and food runners.

Earlier this year, Swift was also seen handing out cash to service workers while leaving a post-Grammys celebration, pausing mid-exit to tell staff members how much they were appreciated.

Her kindness has extended throughout her record-breaking Eras Tour as well, including giving out $197 million in bonuses to her crew.

The superstar made history after grossing a record $2 billion in ticket sales for her record 21-month Eras Tour – which consisted of 149 shows in 21 countries.
