Taylor Swift turns 35 years old today, but she’s already had a pretty eventful last few days.
Over the weekend, the 14-time Grammy-winning artist put the finishing touches on her epic Eras Tour, which spread across nearly two years, 149 concerts, 21 countries and five continents. More than 10 million fans spent over $2 billion to attend her tour while her net worth skyrocketed over $1.6 billion, according to Forbes.
Swift, though, isn’t a selfish superstar. Just a day before her 35th birthday, Swift visited Children’s Mercy Hospital in Kansas City. While there she drew the praises of Kansas City mayor Quinton Lucas for using her time to give entertain young patients and their families for a few hours.
“There are a lot of things Ms. Swift could do with her day and she chose to spend it making the day unforgettable for kids in Kansas City deserving of our love and support,” Lucas said on social media. “Ms. Swift is a remarkably positive impact on our community. Delighted to have her here whenever she comes.”
In addition to the kind message she received from the mayor, she also received a special birthday message from the mother of Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
“Happy birthday to you, Taylor,” Randi said in the post while tagging the superstar artist.
Even Travis Kelce’s dad, Ed, got in on the Taylor Swift birthday festivities. In a podcast appearance he revealed what he was planning for her birthday.
“You have to look beyond that and you have to dig down and come up with something special. The amount of money is meaningless,” he said. You’re not going to impress Taylor Swift with a gift that cost $100,000. But get something that tweaks the strings of her heart that you spend $10 on and she’ll just be all gooey. … You’ve got to find something that triggers the emotions.”
There’s plenty of love from the Chiefs family.
