As well as releasing chart-topping singles and breaking Grammy Award records, Taylor Swift is famed for ceaselessly showing support for her celebrity gal pals.
Naturally, fans of supermodel Gigi Hadid were saddened last night when the singer was noticeably absent from the New York crowd of the annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show - despite Gigi being scheduled to strut her stuff on the runway.
As we say, there's hardly a big-name celebratory occasion that Taylor Swift misses - especially if one of her close friends are involved.

When Blake Lively's other-half Ryan Reynolds released blockbuster movie Deadpool & Wolverine earlier this summer, she promoted the anti-hero flick on social media.
And after supporting her during the US, South America and Australian leg of her Eras tour last year, fellow musician Sabrina Carpenter said the 34-year-old 'knows who I am as a person and is very supportive of that'.
She also gave actor and filmmaker Zoë Kravitz a special shout-out for her debut movie Blink Twice, describing the thriller to press as 'twisted, wickedly funny, and visually stunning'.
When it was announced back in August that Hadid would be performing at the eagerly-awaited annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, spectators expected to see her in the crowd.
Sadly, however, the 'Blank Space' singer was nowhere to be seen.
And her absence certainly didn't go unnoticed by members of the press, including an Entertainment Tonight reporter, who asked the 29-year-old model before the show kicked off whether she believed Taylor would be in attendance.
Despite seemingly not being certain as to whether she'd eventually rock up, Gigi went on to suggest what her close friend would be doing if she wasn't in the crowd.
After the reporter suggested that Taylor's NFL boyfriend Travis Kelce had some time away from the pitch, Gigi tells viewers in a video: "I think if they have one more night before he goes back they'll probably be cozy on the couch."
The model added: "That's just my guess. But she will also be supporting, I can feel it."
Despite not being reunited backstage, Gigi did go on to tell the reporter that she'd be including a subtle shout out to Taylor in her catwalk routine.
Opting not to reveal the pair's secret reference, she joked: "There's an aspect to it that I was trained to do by Taylor on her tour.
"In one of her rehearsals she was like, 'I'm gonna show you how we do this.' Did that, and now I'm using it tonight."
