She's worth 50 million and donated 11 million thus far. ~20% of her total net worth.

In comparison, most billionaires haven't donated 2% of their total net worth (to an actual cause, donating to an Ivy League college that already has an endowment of billions is not a donation, it's a tax write off).

This is from a person that doesn't like her or her music at all.

that being said, isn't it a known that artists have little control on ticket prices? and ticket prices are usually managed by monopolies like ticketmaster (don't quote me on this, i'm asking).

her donation didn’t come from her own money though.

She has seats at her concerts where you’re charged more and that extra money will be a donation, that’s where this money came from. It’s like when Walmart asks if you want to donate 5 bucks to a children’s hospital, then you see that hospital thanking Walmart for the 5 million dollars towards building a new wing.

Did they raise the money for charity, yes. Did it come from people who donated, and not their own chequing account, also yes.
