Taylor Swift Helps Couple Announce Pregnancy; Slams Misleading Tabloid Headline
Taylor Swift continues to make her fans’ “Wildest Dreams” come true.
The singer recently helped two of her fans, Lindsey Rasmussen and husband Jesse, announce happy news of their own – that the couple is expecting a baby.
“Thank you so much @taylorswift13 helping me tell the world IM GOING TO BE A DAD! #BabiesFirstConcert @lindseyjo86,” the father-to-be captioned a photo of himself and Lindsey holding sonogram pictures while standing next to Taylor, who was holding up a sign that read “Baby’s 1st Concert.”

But Saint Taylor didn’t stop there – she also sent a handwritten congratulatory note to the couple, because (yes, we may be editorializing here) she is awesome.
“As if my day couldn’t get any better. Just got this from Thank You/Congrats Card from @taylorswift13 #Thankful,” Jesse Tweeted, along with photos of the card from Tay.

The 25-year-old star was more than happy to help the couple break their baby news, but less than thrilled with a tabloid headline covering the cute story.
Taylor took to Twitter to shade OK Magazine, which (in a now-deleted Tweet) implied the superstar had announced her own pregnancy, and referred to her as Harry Styles’ ex-girlfriend within their accompanying article.
“@OK_Magazine this misleading headline and your choice of words in labeling me are why we need feminism in 2015,” she Tweeted, along with a meme of an orca jumping out of the water, captioned “I came out of the ocean because you need to stop.”
