Actress Ellen Pompeo shared a touching story about her friendship with singer Taylor Swift on “The Jennifer Hudson Show”. During their conversation, Pompeo revealed how Swift once wrote her a significant check for charity to support Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. The hospital’s music program helps parents record stories and songs for babies in the NICU, which have been shown to improve outcomes.
Pompeo recounted that she had asked Swift for a donation to the hospital’s music program, which provides comfort and entertainment for sick babies. Swift generously responded with a substantial check, demonstrating her kindness and generosity.
The actress also mentioned that filming Taylor Swift’s “Bad Blood” music video was an easy experience, as she only spent a short time on set. Pompeo has been promoting her new Hulu drama “Good American Family” in recent interviews.
