Taylor Swift is a good girl, and she's using her celebrity status to spread goodwill. Today (Dec. 29), DoSomething.Org released its annual list of "Celebs Gone Good," and it seems as though none other than Swift herself fills the "Blank Space" at the top of the chart.
According to CelebsGoneGood.com, Swift tops the charts thanks to her feminist awakening and her work with New York City. Earlier this year, Swift released the peppy NYC anthem "Welcome to New York" and donated all the proceeds to the New York City Public School system.
The top of the charity charts is no new place for Swift. As People reports, this is the third year in a row that she's led the pack with her good work.
And Swift isn't the only musician making major waves in the charitable arena. Beyoncé and Miley Cyrus were the third and fourth most charitable celebrities, following Orange is the New Black actress Laverne Cox.
Beyoncé made the list not just for her own feminist declaration at the 2014 VMAs (where she performed "***Flawless" in front of a giant "FEMINIST" sign) but for her #BeyGOOD campaign. The #BeyGOOD campaign has helped those in need with clothing donation drives, medical assistance for the homeless and giving housing and counseling and food to those in need.
As for Cyrus, her own splash at the VMAs, giving her acceptance speech over to a homeless teen, gave her the No. 4 spot on the charitable list. Since Jessie made waves with his heartfelt speech, Cyrus has become a big champion for My Friend's Place, a homeless shelter in Los Angeles.
Other musicians to crack the top 20 include One Direction, Demi Lovato and Justin Bieber.
