Taylor Swift tops list of 2013's most charitable celebrities

Taylor Swift is the gift that keeps on giving. Every year, the nonprofit DoSomething.org compiles a top 20 list of “Celebs Gone Good” that’s filled with stars whose charitable activities set them apart from the pack. 2013′s top dog, generosity-wise, is none other than the Red singer/songwriter — which shouldn’t surprise Swift fans, since she also led DoSomething’s list last year. A release notes Swift’s work at the recent Winter White Gala in London, a benefit for homeless youth, as well as her latest liberal gift to the Nashville music scene — a $100,000 donation to the Nashville Symphony, bequeathed on Swift’s 24th birthday.

The list’s number 2 spot is occupied by the benevolent heartthrobs of One Direction, who began 2013 by volunteering as a group in Ghana under the auspices of Comic Relief. Individual group members, too, have shown big charitable impulses; DoSomething says that Harry Styles and Liam Payne raised over $800,000 for cancer research this year as well. (So maybe Styles is more than just “Trouble” after all.) Chime for Change and Goodwill activist Beyoncé, Reach Out Worldwide founder Paul Walker, and Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, whose smash hit “Same Love” spurred a national conversation about marriage equality and the hip-hop community, round out the list’s top 5.

Glad to see Beyonce and Taylor being charitable, meanwhile the other pop girls remain greedy and stingy

Rih just recently donated 100k to the Phillipines and I'm sure she donated to other charities as well. I don't understand why she's not on the list actually

And where's Drake. He donated a lot of money to some poor kids this year as well?

Some artists prefer to be silence about charity and don't provide numbers.

Good for her

But it's kinda sad how they are making a list like this, it's almost making it a competition

She makes more money than all the other celebrities so it's only fair.
