Amid the on-going coronavirus pandemic many people around the world have been struggling to make ends meet.

 

Pop star and icon Taylor Swift recently helped two women who have been struggling financially due to the coronavirus.

 

Taylor Swift has been a teen idol for millions of youngsters that connects to them on a personal level.

 

She has always been vocal about her agreements and disagreements with fellow singers and celebrities which made her the hot favourite in recent times.

 

Nikki Cornwell, of Nashville, Tennessee, and Shelbie Selewski of Harrison Township, Michigan, were featured in an article about Americans who have been facing eviction, unemployment and struggling to pay their bills amid the crisis. Swift decided to help out by donating $13,000 to each, reports a section of the media.
