Taylor Swift Makes $100,000 Donation to Young Cancer Patient

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Taylor not exactly just in:

Taylor Swift is simply amazing.

The “Life of a Showgirl” singer made a $100,000 donation to a two-year-old fan named Lilah Smoot amid her battle with stage 4 brain cancer, multiple outlets reported late this week.

This sort of gesture coming from the artist is hardly even surprising at this point.

Along with the monetary gift, Swift left an uplifting message for the toddler, who referred to the 35-year-old as her “friend” in a TikTok video shared by her mom Katelynn Smoot October 8.

“Sending the biggest hug to my friend, Lilah!” the Grammy winner wrote on a GoFundMe page run by the young Swiftie’s family. “Love, Taylor.”

The public has since learned that Lilah’s cancer journey started when she was rushed to hospital after suffering a seizure at a mere 18 months old.

Upon arrival, physicians discovered a mass on her brain … which they determined to be a stage 4 tumor. Simply awful.

Swift, who has a documentary coming out later this year, has grown famous for these kinds of presents; she gave a hefty sum of money to all the crew involved with her Eras Tour, for example.

In March 2021, Swift and her mom Andrea Swift jointly donated $50,000 to help mom-of-five Vickie Quarles after her husband Theodis Ray Quarles passed away from COVID-19.

When it comes to Lilah, the child’s tumor was surgically removed, yet she was eventually diagnosed with a “very rare, aggressive form of brain cancer,” one with only 58 documented cases in the United States last year, according to this same GoFundMe page.

In the wake of Taylor’s donation, Katelynn shared a message of gratitude on TikTok.

“I cannot say thank you enough,” she wrote in a post on this platform over the weekend, adding:

“I’m truly in shock. This means we don’t have to worry about anything other than Lilah. Truly such a blessing. Thank you @Taylor Swift.”

This is the incredible thing about Taylor Swift, right?

She can sing a song about Travis Kelce’s penis one second, and then turn around and do something life-changing for a fan the next second.

Katelynn, for her part, noted on Saturday that the $1000,000 gift lifted the financial burden from her family as they navigated Lilah’s treatment.

“We now can just focus on being here with our girl,” she wrote in on-screen text on the footage. “Truly we are so incredibly grateful.”

Hailee Steinfeld Pregnant? The Rumor & The Truth

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Even before Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen married, fans wondered when she might become pregnant.

… Or if she was already.

From her long-anticipated MCU role to blowing critics away in Sinners, her career is going strong.

But fans want to know if it’s true that she’s growing her family.

Fans are asking: Is Hailee Steinfeld pregnant?

Since news first broke that Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen were engaged, people have wondered when they might see about becoming pregnant.

Part of the interest is people who want to see the couple happy.

She is a famous actress, singer, and voice actress. Allen, meanwhile, is relatively famous within the sports world.

And, for some, it’s wondering if they’re going to have a baby to make the marriage “stick.” (Folks, that’s not how having a baby or a marriage works)

Some even joked that the famous attractiveness of Steinfeld’s Sinners co-star Michael B. Jordan prompted Allen to race to the altar.

However, with no pregnancy announcement from Steinfeld, fans are left to hunt for clues.

She and Allen actually appeared in multiple baby-related festivities in 2024, prior to tying the knot.

But these were sex-reveal parties for other people’s babies.

That shows that they are the sorts of people who have friends and family who are having kids. Among Millennials, that does narrow things down.

People whose peers are having kids are more likely to do so themselves. But what has Steinfeld actually said on the topic?

What has she said about being pregnant?

Earlier this year, in her Beau Society newsletter, Hailee Steinfeld teased on her Instagram Story that she was having her friends discuss what it means to be pregnant.

“Put out one of my favorite issues yesterday,” she wrote at the time.

Steinfeld detailed that it was an issue “featuring 2 of my best friends, @courtneycleator_ & @jordanxmichaels!!”

She teased: “Talking all things pregnancy, postpartum, body changes, style advice, and more.”

And there are more direct reports on her feelings when it comes to growing a family.

In March, Us Weekly offered a report on Steinfeld and Allen’s baby plans.

“They both are excited about starting a family and want that in the next few years,” an inside source dished.

The insider added: “They both share the same values when it comes to parenting and having kids.”

Sharing similar baby plans and similar parenting aspirations is so important.

You can’t just marry someone and hope that they’ll magically want to change their mind about having kids. It’s great to hear that they’re on the same page.

Is Hailee Steinfeld actually pregnant?

At this time, there is no actual evidence to support the idea that Hailee Steinfeld is pregnant.

There are numerous “photos” on social media that might appear to show her with a baby bump.

However, these appear to be manipulated photographs, using grotesque plagiarism engines like generative AI or simple photoshop.

To be blunt, these are fetish images. They’re not intended to trick people, but it’s understandable that some of the subtler renderings might hoodwink some folks. It happens!

If and when Steinfeld becomes pregnant, we’re sure that she and Allen will share the news when they’re good and ready. For now, you know, they’re still young and newly married and living their lives.
