Taylor Swift Donates $1 Million to Louisiana Flooding Victims

She may have just endured a rough few weeks from a PR standpoint, but today, Taylor Swift reminded us yet again that when it comes to using her fame and fortune to affect positive change in the world, she truly has no rival.



With all the daily drama coming out of Rio and the mouth of a certain cotton candy-haired real estate mogul, the current situation in Louisiana hasn’t been receiving its rightful place at the top of every news broadcast, but it’s almost unimaginably horrific.


At least 11 have been killed and thousands have lost their homes in flooding of historic proportions.


Yesterday, Swift cut a check for $ 1 million to the state’s disaster relief fund.


Today, the singer issued the following statement to fans via social media:


“We began The 1989 World Tour in Louisiana, and the wonderful fans there made us feel completely at home. The fact that so many people in Louisiana have been forced out of their own homes this week is heartbreaking.


“I encourage those who can to help out and send your love and prayers their way during this devastating time.”



Fans of Swift’s know that the mega-wealthy star (with an estimated worth of $ 250 million) has a long history of helping those in need.


Last year, Taylor donated $ 50,000 to New York City public schools.


Shortly thereafter, she gave another $ 50,000 to a cancer stricken fan.


Perhaps even more meaningful than her financial contributions, however, are the ways in which the hard-working singer takes time for her fans who are going through difficult times.


Taylor has visited children’s hospitals to hang out and sing for terminally ill kids on multiple occasions, and her open letters to fans who have suffered losses or been victims of bullying have discovered millions.


So even if you’re staunchly Team Katy or Calvin, you can take a moment to set aside petty celebrity feuds and acknowledge that regardless of her bad blood with other famous folks, Taylor has unquestionably used her position to do some good in the world.

Louisiana Twin Toddlers Found Dead In Truck, Heat To Blame?

On Saturday, June 18th, Alisha Orr woke up from a nap in her Bossier City, Louisiana home, and couldn’t find her twin toddlers, Oliver and Aria, anywhere.  



Orr got in touch with her neighbor, Rhonda Williams to see if she had see the three-year-olds.


While Orr searched their backyard, Williams look into the family’s truck and found Aria.  


Williams attempted CPR, but told the Shreveport Times it was too late.


“Her jaws had locked. It was obvious she was gone.”


Williams thought Oliver may have had a fighting chance at the time.


“It may have been wishful thinking, but when I tried to do CPR on him, I thought I felt a thready pulse,” Matthews recalled.


Though details are sparse, the initial autopsy revealed that the twins may have died from heat-related issues, since temperatures in parts of the country recently have soared.  


It’s not known how they got into the car, or how long they were in there, authorities warned, as the investigation is ongoing.


“They were wonderful, happy kids,” she said.


“I pray every moment of the day for the family. They are good people, and they were good parents. I can’t imagine what they are going through.”


Alisha’s husband, Travis is a deputy with the Bossier Parish Sheriff’s department, and both parents were devoted to their three children (they also have a son, 8).


“You could see this took him to his knees,” Williams said of Travis.


“Everything he did, he did with the kids.”


The Sheriff’s department released a statement of support for the Orrs.


“We are saddened by the tragic loss suffered by the Orr family, and our hearts are heavy,” Bossier Sheriff Julian Whittington said.


“This is a very difficult time, but it’s even more so, as they are a part of our Bossier Sheriff’s Office family. Please keep Deputy Travis Orr and his family in your thoughts and prayers.”
