Singer Taylor Swift has reportedly gifted Rs 82 lakh to each tour truck driver who carried her equipment on her US tour.

The 33-year-old superstar is said to have given the whopping sum to all the truckers who’ve been carting her tour equipment around the US.

Taylor is believed to have 50 truck drivers on the tour, meaning she shelled out almost four million pounds in bonuses, reports metro.co.uk.

Grammy-winner Taylor is also reported to have given a “very generous amount” to other staff members on the tour.

It included band members, dancers, lighting and sound technicians and caterers.

A source told TMZ that the money was an “end of the tour” bonus as the pop star ended her US leg of tour, before starting on to Mexico.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
