Just this week, Three videos of Taylor swift performing at a mini-concert held at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles, California back in September. Taylor performed ‘Out of the Woods,’Wildest Dreams,’ and ‘Blank Space.’

Singer Demi Lovato is one of several celebrities to support Olympic legend Bruce Jenner.
Lovato dedicated her performance of “Warrior” to Jenner at her concert at the Vector Arena in Auckland, New Zealand over the weekend.
“What’s incredible is that an American hero, an Olympian… to be honest, I didn’t know who he was until Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” she said, echoing many younger Americans. “And let’s be honest, neither did you.”
“But I just want to, like, dedicate this song, and it’s so cheesy that I’m even doing this, but f*** it, whatever, to someone who became an even bigger hero last night… he probably saved so many lives and educated so many people.”
