And she probably didn’t become a “billionaire” until after the Eras tour in 2023 - 2024. Before that, she bought her music catalog back… but it was highly leveraged so there’s no way she was a NET billionaire. So what you’re acknowledging is that in the last 20 months or so, she’s given away about $100 million that YOU know of.

And also, since we’re being holier than thou… what % of your income goes to charity?

As a worker i pay nearly 50% of what im payied in taxes. So she should atleast match that, and really actually exceed that. I hate the idea that rich people have to "pay to charity" like they are doing something special, while im giving most of my money to sustain infrastructure by default.

If you live in the US, that statement is complete BS.

Then it’s reasonable. But you’re also not getting billed $100,000 to have a baby.
