Taylor Swift gave her backup dancer $50,000 after he posted about his nephew having cancer
Toshi, a backup dancer on Taylor Swift’s “1989” tour, recently posted about his nephew Ayden on Instagram.
Ayden, who’s 13 months old, was diagnosed with cancer. The family started a GoFundMe page asking for donations so Ayden’s mother, who lost her job, could stay by her son’s side 24 hours a day.
A day after Toshi’s Instagram post, Swift donated $50,000 to the family.
Toshi wrote in a post, “My family and I can't thank her enough... She is such an incredible human being.”
