Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez unite for a night of laughter at Ramy Youssef’s comedy show, supporting a cause close to their hearts as all proceeds go towards humanitarian relief in Gaza

Taylor Swift and her friends attended a comedy show in New York City on Friday night, where all ticket proceeds went towards humanitarian aid in Gaza.

The Shake It Off popstar, 33, wore her signature red lip as she left the Brooklyn Academy of Music after comedian Ramy Youssef’s show on December 8.

Youssef, born in the Big Apple to Egyptian parents, announced on November 12 that all proceeds from the last 12 nights of his More Feelings tour would go to the American Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA).

The comedian – who has been vocal about calling for a ceasefire in the Middle East – said the charity works to ‘provide humanitarian relief to the people of Gaza.’

Gigi Hadid, a friend of Swift’s whose father is Palestinian, commented: ‘Legend.’
