Taylor Swift could be criticised for many things, but a failing sense of generosity definitely is not one of them.

Having previously donated sizable sums to victims of flooding, literacy programmes for children and the arts, the singer has now chosen to assist a facility of great personal significance.

Yesterday, Hart of Dixie actress and good friend of Taylor Swift Jaime King took to Instagram to share an open letter in which she thanks her Grammy-winning BFF for a donation she made to Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in honour of her son Leo Thames.

 

 

Sorry?! @sascha_breuer I turned LT into a Vulcan.  #startrek #spock #LeoThames #iowethisladbigtimenow

Along with a letter of acknowledgement from the hospital, the mother of two shared the story of how the Bad Blood songstress – who happens to be the godmother of Leo Thames – supported their family during the little boy's heart surgery.

She wrote:     “Dear all – at 20 weeks our son was diagnosed with Transposition of the Great Arteries AKA TGA.  He had a major heart surgery, that was terrifying, and traumatic for us as parents, for our family.”

“Only a few of our best friends knew.  I felt that I had to protect him in fear of the unknown, fear he would not make it. We felt isolated & confused.”

 

 

Praising her friend’s spirit of “unconditional giving”, Jaime said: “Taylor Swift does so many selfless acts that go unnoticed because she does them silently.”

“As the Godmother of Leo Thames for his birthday she gave an incredible donation to the people that saved his life.”

“TS knew that by giving back in this way would be the greatest gift one could give to us, to Leo Thames and to all of those with congenital heart issues.”

The Pearl Harbour star continued by expressing her gratitude to Taylor and acknowledging how the singer has supported the family on an emotional level.

“She came to the ICU to comfort us, to hold and bond with him with such grace & strength.  Our gift back is to share our story that anyone that is going through this is not alone.”

“Leo Thames is the strongest, healthiest boy because of this team.  He will live a full and whole life & never have to look back. Thank you.”

 

 

Dear all- at 20 weeks our son was diagnosed with Transposition of the Great Arteries AKA TGA. He had a major heart surgery, that was terrifying, and traumatic for us as parents, for our family. Only a few of our best friends knew. I felt that I had to protect him in fear of the unknown, fear he would not make it. We felt isolated & confused. @taylorswift does so many selfless acts that go unnoticed because she does them silently, from such a great place of unconditional giving. As the Godmother of Leo Thames for his birthday she gave an incredible donation to the people that saved his life Dr. Allistar Phillips and his brilliant team. It made us realize that silence cannot connect other parents & people going through these issues. TS knew that by giving back in this way would be the greatest gift one could give to us, to Leo Thames and to all of those with congenital heart issues. She came to the ICU to comfort us, to hold and bond with him with such grace & strength. Our gift back is to share our story that anyone that is going through this is not alone, we understand & want to stand up to bring awareness in the greatest way possible. Leo Thames is the strongest, healthiest boy because of this team. He will live a full and whole life & never have to look back. Thank you Taylor & to EVERYONE listed on this letter we love you. With gratitude and humbleness  Jaime and Kyle

Having only joined the world of Instagram just a couple of weeks ago, Tom Hiddleston has already fallen victim to hackers. 

According to Eonline, the 35-year-old actor was hacked yesterday morning, for almost two hours.

The hackers posted bizarre pictures to Tom's profile,  while also promoting other profiles in the process. 

They also shared a photo promising Tom Hiddleston fans that they would eventually give the account back to him. 

Two hours later, the Avengers actor regained control of his profile, and all was right with the world again. 

Tom joined Instagram earlier this month, and has already gained one million followers! 

We hope he'll start posting a few cheeky selfies of himself and his girlfriend, Taylor Swift.

Taylor Swift has had a rollercoaster of a year.

From the Calvin Harris and Tom Hiddleston drama to the leaked Yeezy footage which had the potential to ruin her reputation, 2016 has undoubtedly been the year of the Taylor Swift headline.

And it sounds like she might need some time out of the spotlight.

In comparison to last year's Video Music Awards which saw the singer scoop four Moonmen, this year's are less Tay-oriented and the star isn't in the running for anything which could go a long way towards explaining her decision not to attend on Sunday.

That's right, people. Taylor Swift is not attending the VMAs this year –  a decision which has sent the rumour mill into overdrive today (obvs).

While insiders say the 26-year-old never intended to appear in the first place, media outlets can't help but wonder if this announcement has anything to do with the fact Kanye has been given a whole four minutes on stage to do whatever the hell he wants.

Sorry Swifties, there'll be no shocked faces or dodgy dance moves this Sunday.

What will the squad do without her?

Remember when choosing a partner for a primary school tour was one of the biggest moments of the academic year?

You want to go with her, but she wants to go with someone else, but she promised and now you're going to have to call in a favour.

Well, it turns out schoolyard etiquette is no different to the world of celebrity as an MTV exec recently revealed when discussing the seating plan for the upcoming Video Music Awards.

According to those in the know, Hollywood's biggest and brightest are given the opportunity to request the artist they would like to share an arm rest with on the big night, and it sounds like Taylor Swift causes serious headaches for party planners.

Commenting on the confusion that arises as a result of this custom, MTV Vice President Gina Esposito explained that the Bad Blood singer is so popular that fellow celebs are chomping at the bit to cosy up with the star.

"She has so many good friends, and it was hard to figure out the ‘Taylor’ of it all in past years because so many people were requesting to sit by her and sit with her," Gina explained.

Reflecting on previous award shows, Gina said of Tay: "She’s often really requested."

Something tells us that that mightn't be the case this year…

When Karlie Kloss was asked her opinion of Kim Kardashian recently, she did what most media-trained celebrities do and played the perfect diplomat.

Despite the fact millions thought Kim was responsible for the ruination of Taylor Swift's 'good girl' image, Tay's pal refused to be drawn into the drama, and instead erred on the side of caution by offering a vague pleasantry about the reality TV star.

"Look, I really don't know her that well," Karlie told The Sunday Times before noting that Kim had 'always been a lovely person' to her.

But if the Victoria's Secret model thought she had dodged a bullet with that remark, she was sorely mistaken as media outlets had a field day suggesting that Karlie had let down the 'squad' by missing an opportunity to slam Kim.

The rumour mill, unsurprisingly, went into overdrive as Tay-haters (Tayters? Ok, no) decided that Karlie's lacklustre remarks indicated a lack of solidarity within Taylor's infamous squadron of long-legged beauties.

And it looks like Karlie has officially had enough.

Taking to Twitter, 24-year-old Karlie made her feelings know, writing: "I will not allow the media to misconstrue my words. Taylor has always had my back and I will always have hers."
 

"And I will never be the girl that you can use to pit women against each other. That isn't me," she added.

Seemingly certain that Karlie would have to address the furore at some point this week, fans of the model were on hand to offer sisterly support.

"You are an amazing woman and friend," wrote one while another added: "You don't have to explain yourself to the public. As long as @taylorswift13 knows your true feelings, that's all matters."

Unfortunately not everyone bought it, with one Twitter user responding: "But your precious Tay Swift is the one who also pits women against each other." 

Ouch!

If you had dreams that Taylor Swift is writing her next album all about her break-up wih Calvin Harris and her new relationship with Tom Hiddleston, then you're going to be very disappointed by this news.

It's been two years since Tay Tay debuted 1989, and in her usual fashion she would produce another album this year (she's so far followed a pattern of releasing an album every second year), but alas, it's not going to happen.

One Twitter used asked Big Machine Records CEO Scott Borschetta if there's anything coming up for Tay, and he replied with a big, fat "NOPE."

Ouch, thanks for breaking the news softly, Scott.

You never know, she might be too busy with her new BF, or she could do a Beyonce and surprise us all…

It's safe to say that we know nearly every Taylor Swift song is about a guy she's dated in the past.

However, sometimes we just can't place which song is about what guy.

There's Dear John, which is easy, but some just slam us. 'Is that Harry Styles you're on about or Jake Gyllenhaal?' Who knows.

But now, one thing we do know is what song is about Taylor Lautner.

The pair dated back in the summer of 2009, and had the cutest celeb couple name ever – Taylor Squared.

And how did we found out about this, you ask? From Lea Michele, no less.

While speaking on a Facebook Live video for Scream Queens, the conversation quickly turned to past relationships.

That's where Lea chimes in, "Didn't [Taylor] write a song about you?" to which Mr Lautner replies. "That's what she does. She wrote songs."

And then he drops the bomb, "It's called Back to December."

We'll BRB… just gonna replay Back to December over and over and over again.

When your high-profile relationship and even higher-profile split plays out in front of a global audience, you have to expect a certain type of fall-out.

And while there's no doubt Taylor Swift has come out of Tayvin saga a lot worse off than her former boyfriend, Calvin Harris, the Scottish DJ hasn't managed to escape ridicule entirely.

Upon accepting a Future Icon award in Las Vegas this weekend, the 32-year-old star was placed in a fairly awkward position when host Howie Mandel made reference to his world-famous ex-girlfriend.
 

 

Thank you Caesars for my Future Icon award!!!

Cracking the biggest Dad joke of all time, the America's Got Talent judge complimented the DJ's threads, saying: "That’s a nice suit. Who’s your tailor?"

Only delighted with himself and the audience's reaction, Howie then added: "See what I did?"

After laughing off the jibe with a fake chortle you reserve solely for moments like that, Calvin responded: "You got that prepared, you had that one ready."

In spite of Howie's remark, Calvin kept his composure before delivering a speech, and sharing the moment online for Instagram users.
 

 

An honor to meet a living legend!!!

"Thank you Caesars for my Future Icon award!!" he wrote alongside two photos of himself proudly clutching the award.

Nice try, Howie.

She may be a world-famous superstar caught up in a lot of controversy, but it turns out Taylor isn't the only talented one in her family.

Taylor's younger brother, Austin, just made his acting debut alongside Pierce Brosnan for the upcoming movie I.T.

However, in the trailer, his part is cut to a few seconds:

Last year, Taylor congratulated her brother on Instagram when he finished filming the movie.

She shared a photo of him sitting in an old-fashioned car and captioned it: “My brother @austinkingsleyswift just acted in his first movie and I’m all proud and stuff.”

If he does become world famous, he's kinda already used to the lavish lifestyle as Tay likes to bring him along to red carpet events (when she doesn't have a date).

When it comes to the gym, Lord knows we've made a few dud moves in our time.

Squatting when asked to lunge, sitting when asked to stand – Holla at me, fellow Spinners – and leaving when asked to stay. 

"The class hasn't finished yet…"

But the moment we're free of that Godforsaken sweatbox, we generally pull ourselves together, adhere to social norms, put one foot in front of the other, and walk like a real-life human.

And while normal rules apply to us mere mortals, the same clearly can't be said for Nashville's biggest current export – Taylor Swift.

If recent footage caught by eager paps is anything to go by, poor oul Tay takes some time to adjust to the outside world after a heavy cardio session, and can't quite remember the classic left, right, left, right formula when it comes to the ol' walking.

Side to side in an approach generally favoured by crabs, Tay can be seen quickly making her way to a waiting SUV before sliding inside, and using her pincers to direct her driver.

Good woman yourself, Tay.

Apart from calling out Kimye and wishing BFF Selena Gomez happy birthday, Taylor Swift has stayed away from social media over the past number of weeks.

With all the controversy surrounding her, it's easy to see why she didn't post anything, but in the small hours of this morning, the songstress made her way back to Instagram.

Taking to Instagram Stories, Tay shared a video of her cat, Olivia.

Ms Swift doesn't actually appear in the small clip, but can be heard talking as Olivia figures out if she's a cat or a squirrel.

Hmmm, OK?

Tay's very quiet return comes after Justin Bieber said he's on Kimye's team yesterday.

Even though she's back, we can't see things calming down anytime soon for her.

There's little worse than introducing yourself to someone only to be told you've already met, so we're cringing for Britney Spears today after she claimed she has never met Taylor Swift despite the existence of photographic evidence to the contrary.

While being interviewed on the Kyle and Jackie O radio show on Monday, the 34-year-old singer was asked which solo star she would rather fly long-haul with.

"Who would you rather sit next to on a 24-hour flight to Sydney: Taylor Swift or Katy Perry?" the host asked the Toxic singer.

Playing the diplomat, Britney responded: "I don't know. That's hard, They're both so cool. I don't know."

Not content to leave it there, the radio presenters probed a little further, asking: "Do you know or do you have a friendship with either of them?"

And that's when it all got a little stressful for Tay-Swizzle fans.

After confirming she had indeed met Katy Perry – albeit briefly – Britney insisted that she and the Blank Space singer had yet to cross paths.

"I briefly met Katy Perry at the Smurfs movie premiere in 2013 and I met her there really quick," Britney explained. "So maybe because I've met Katy Perry, I would say Taylor Swift because I've never met her before."

Cue the exploding of heads in the T-Swizzle fanbase.

Stunned that the pop icon would forget meeting their idol, Tay's fans trawled the internet and unearthed not one but two snaps of Britney happily posing alongside Tom Hiddleston's new bae.

Turns out Brit and Tay met as far back as 2003 before cosying up for yet another snap in 2008…
