The Karma singer, 34, has just flogged the smaller of her two high-end private jets after being slammed for her carbon footprint over a planned 19,200-mile trip in just 10 days.

The controversial trip – between Tokyo, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Melbourne – was expected to produce 122 tons of C02 emissions according to Yard and cost around $23,250 (£18,400) in fuel.

Last year, she was labelled the world’s most carbon-polluting celebrity by the publication, when they claimed she had racked up 170 flights between January and August.

Her lawyers sternly refuted the claim, insisting Taylor often lends the private jet to other celebs.

Taylor sold her smaller luxury 12-seater private jet, which is a Dassault Falcon 900 and is worth $44million (£35million) brand new, but still has another plane that can fit 16.

The offloaded aircraft featured her lucky number 13 on the front and had the registration number N898TS.

It is believed to refer to her initials and her year of birth 1989, which is also her most successful album to date.

Here, we take a peek inside some of the most extravagant private jets in the celeb world.
