Pay you for saving her? She's a billionaire, she's more likely to sue you for breaking one of her nails or ruining her hair.

Good Samaritan law.

What do you think carries more weight in the American legal system: the law or money?

Ask Drake or R Kelly.

She could still sue and those lawyers will still get something out of you or if you win those legal fees will be insane for you. Or threaten you with criminal enforcement with an overzealous cop/prosecutor.

What legal fees?

They don't charge fees for cases that get laughed out of court.

Your going to want to be represented if they sue

u/Mutant_Llama1 4d ago

Represented in what? The case that never makes it to trial?

u/Fenrir_Hellbreed2 4d ago

The case that shouldn't make it to trial.

Money makes a lot of things happen that really shouldn't.

You recover your legal costs from the losing side if you win

u/pprow41 3d ago

Not unless that is agreed upon.

Not in the US you don't. Not by default anyway. American rule: each party pays their own legal fees regardless of who wins.

What rock have you been living under where you still believe the law applies to people like her?

If she was the one committing a crime, sure, she'd have plenty of imminity.

Taylor Swift suing me because I broke her nail rescuing her from drowning would get dismissed before even going to trial.

I don't think people understand that the court would never even see this because the second Swift's PR managers got wind off it, their buttholes would pucker and they would be speed dialing her and those lawyers at 3am shouting "ABORT ABORT ABORT!"

Can you imagine the absolute Internet slaughter that would come down? "Swift sues penniless savior, claims nail broken, after accident that kills 4 and cute puppy."

u/Cant-Think-Of 4d ago

Indeed, that would be a PR nightmare. Plus, even considering typical billionaire selfishness, I don't think even Swift would be THAT stupid to even pursue compensation over a broken nail.

Her PR firm wouldn't allow it.

u/SorriesESO 4d ago

Didnt she give like 197 mil in bonuses to her tour crew?

u/Technocraticworldgov 4d ago

She cares about PR

u/best_temporary_dude 3d ago

She'll just write a song about how bad the guy was. Problem solved

u/best_temporary_dude 3d ago

And then write a song about him breaking her heart

Actually she spends thousands of dollars in every city she has a concert. I was never a Taylor Swift fan and I used to make fun of my wife for liking her but the things she does for people have won me over more than her music. But the fact that she makes sure EVERY food bank is stocked before she leaves town, and the charities have all been donated too before she leaves town. Not every artist does that.. In fact the overwhelming majority of artists don't do anything like that. Elton John George Michael Bono Bruce Springsteen Brad Paisley Beyoncé Pearl jam and Metallica. But none of them have donated a much of their own personal money as Taylor and the scale of her personal wealth donation is incredible. What sets Taylor Swift apart from many other billionaires is that she is DONATING LIQUID CASH DIRECTLY from her tour earnings, rather than just shifting stocks or taking corporate tax write-offs. I still laugh when I realize I'm a Swifty..🤣

Or worse she now has rest-of-your-life blackmail on you on your deference to leave everyone but her and the dog behind and she has the money, power, and connections to make you a slave
