We interrupt our daily Taylor Swift Romantic Life Update to bring you a piece of news about the singer that has nothing to do with who she is dating.
It actually has to do with something far more important.
On Friday afternoon, Swift took to Instagram to post a message about the 49 men and women who were killed inside Pure nightclub in Orlando last weekend.
They were shot dead by Omar Mateen, a New York native and terrorist who appeared to disagree with the gay lifestyle and who aligned himself with ISIS prior to being killed by police.
Over the weekend, and in the days ahead, memorial services will be held for these victims.
And that was the topic of sad discussion for Swift in her social media post.
It opened as follows:
"As you bury your loved ones this week, please know that there are millions of us sending you love and our deepest sympathy in the face of this unthinkable and devastating tragedy."
It then went on to list the name of everyone who died at Mateen's hands.
A countless number of celebrities have honored these Orlando shooting victims in their own way, but this marked the first time Swift spoke out about the massacre.
Take a look below at how other stars have reacted:
It pales in comparison, of course, but Swift has been in the news of late due to her personal life.
Just a couple weeks after splitting from Calvin Harris, Taylor was seen kissing Tom Hiddleston.
There are photos online as evidence and everything.
Since then, sources have confirmed that Harris thinks Swift cheated on her, while other sources claim Swift dumped Harris on the phone.
None of those rumors paint Swift in a positive light.
But we salute her for this message and we join her in sending our condolences to the loved ones of those slain.
