Tearjerker: Music superstar Taylor Swift surprises fans with generous gifts

(WITI/CNN) -- Whether or not you're a fan of music superstar Taylor Swift, you'll be impressed by the generosity she has showered upon some of her most dedicated fans. The superstar posted a YouTube video of her gift-giving to fans, which has become known as "Swiftmas."

Here's how it worked: After the successful release of her "1989" album, Swift did some "Tay-lurking," in which she followed some fans on social media, taking in personal details including likes and dislikes.

The video features the singer wrapping gifts for some of her fans and shipping them to the adoring bunch. In one case, Swift personally travels to Connecticut to deliver gifts to the young son of one adoring fan.



As you can imagine, there are squeals, tears and total meltdowns over the generosity of a celeb who has become known for breaking down the wall of fame (she famously hosted tons of them in her various homes for private listening parties before to the release of her new album).
