Taylor Swift Shows Off Belly Button: See It Here!

Throughout the years, Taylor Swift has been open about a number of topics::

Her relationships. Her heartbreak. Her cats. Her adoration for fans.

But there's been one subject regarding which Swift has been surprisingly and hilarious quiet: her belly button.

Many have wondered whether the artist even possesses this appendage, but Taylor went ahead and finally answered that question via a rare bikini photo she posted on Instagram last night.

"Greetings from Maui! @haimtheband," Swift wrote as a caption.

In an interview with Lucky magazine late last year, the superstar addressed chatter about this body part.

"I don't like showing my belly button," she said. "I want that to be a mystery. As far as anyone knows based on my public appearances, they haven't seen evidence of a belly button. It could be pierced. They have no idea.

"If I'm going to get some sort of massive tattoo, it's going to be right next to my belly button because no one's ever going to see that."

Turns out, Taylor was wrong. People ARE going to see it. People HAVE now seen it. And people are reacting in force to it.

“Taylor Swift has a belly button!! It is confirmed. We can all sleep easy tonight,” Tweeted one follower in response, while Spencer Pratt even chimed in and wrote of this picture:

"It's official @taylorswift13 has a belly button!"

So there you have it. Taylor Swift has a belly button. As for other Taylor Swift facts...


Taylor Swift: Child Pornographer Claims Singer Stole His Life Story

In the past, Taylor Swift news items had mostly fallen into the "quirky and cute" category, like when Taylor showed her belly button last week.

Unfortunately, now that Swifty has gone from just wildly successful singer-songwriter to full-blown queen of the modern music industry, more shady figures from her past and lone nut jobs who probably never met her are coming forward claiming they've got the dirt.

Last week, Taylor's guitar teacher came forward with some not-so-scandalous revelations. (Her parents fought! She enjoyed Taco Bell as a chubby pre-teen!) 

Now, a convicted child pornographer named Jose Hilario is claiming that Taylor stole his life story as the inspiration for her 1989 album...and he just can't shake it off (sorry), in fact, he wants $100 million!

Hilario doesn't provide much in the way of details as to what aspects of his life Taylor stole for her songs, but we'll just assume he's a fashionable bajillionaire who briefly dated Harry Styles.

Just kidding - he's actually a 42-year-old pedo who claims that he first met Taylor when she was 18 and they formed a deep, spiritual bond that the rest of us will just never understand.

"My heart hurts," Hilario says in his lawsuit, adding that Taylor promised she would "help him with his legal problems and that she would write and sing songs about him."

Hilario says she didn't make good on her promise to sing about him or make help with his legal fees. Instead, she just stole elements of his life story for her obviously autobiographical album, and now he wants to get paid!

Sucks that she never made good on the promise that she made in this dude's diseased brain, but in fairness, Taylor had a lot of other guys to sing about.

Taylor Swift Nude Photos to be Released By Hackers?

Earlier today, Taylor Swift's Twitter account was compromised by hackers claiming to be associated with Lizard Squad - the same group who famously hacked into the networks of major gaming systems over the holiday season.

The hackers immediately began tweeting to Swift's 70 million followers, encouraging them to follow various accounts associated with Lizard Squad.

Cute Taylor

It seemed fairly harmless at first - as harmless as a forceful invasion of one's privacy can be, anyway - but then the hackers began threatening to release nude photos of Taylor.

Obviously, the incident brings to mind the widespread theft that occurred back in August when nude photos of Jennifer Lawrence and dozens of other female stars were released online. 

Taylor took to her Tumblr page today to acknowledge the hacking and admit that she is, indeed, frightened:

"Well, now I'm awake," Taylor wrote. "My Twitter got hacked but don't worry, Twitter is deleting the hacker tweets and locking my account until they can figure out how this happened and get me a new password. Never a dull moment."

She later updated that her Instagram has now been hacked too, adding, "This is going to be a long day #THIS IS WHY I'M, SCARED OF TECHNOLOGY #WHO'S PARANOID NOW?"

Between the theft of nude photos from Kate Upton and so many others over the summer and the recent Sony hacking scandal, online security has been in the news more than ever lately, and it seems that Taylor is the latest victim of cyber-criminals who are more interested in proving a point than making money.

It looks as though Taylor's accounts have been secured, and the hacks are currently being investigated, but a scary moment for the singer and her fans, nonetheless.

We'll have more information on this story as it becomes available.

Taylor Swift Twitter Messages Allegedly Leaked: Who's the Singer's Famous Poker Buddy?

Earlier today, we reported that hackers were threatening to release nude Taylor Swift photos obtained by breaking into the singer's Twitter and Instagram accounts.

It now looks as though the crisis has been averted, as crack social media security teams immediately got the situation under control, locking Taylor's account and reportedly tracking down the parties responsible.

Considering the fallout from The Fappening and the Sony hacking scandal, Taylor was pretty fortunate in this case.

But that doesn't mean she's emerged from the scandal entirely unscathed.

Screen shots of Twitter direct messages that were allegedly taken from Taylor's inbox have been making the rounds online, and they're every bit as harmlessly goofy-cute as you would expect:

Yes, it seems that Swifty likes to play poker (or Go Fish, who knows with her?) with none other than former Disney boy-bander Nick Jonas. 

It's an interesting development (thus far, the only interesting development to come out of this scandal), as Swift dated Joe Jonas (Nick's older brother and former bandmate) early in her career.

In fact, Joe was the first ex to inspire one of the classic breakup anthems that helped launch Swifty's career, so perhaps it's not surprising that she's still tight with his family.

Hey, Taylor hung with Harry Styles last week; she's clearly not the type to hold grudges. In fact, we wouldn't be surprised to find out that she gets together with the boys of 1D for epic all-night games of Risk.

Please let that be true.

Taylor Swift Responds to Alleged Nude Photo Hack: Have Fun With Photoshop!

Taylor Swift is shaking off claims that hackers possess nude photos of her after her social media accounts were briefly compromised yesterday.

TS FTW

The people who hacked Taylor Swift's accounts are asking for Bitcoin donations. Once they reach a certain level, they will release the nudes.

Alleged nudes. The 25-year-old singer-songwriter taunted hackers with her response to the hacking on Twitter, saying the claims are bogus.

“Any hackers saying they have ‘nudes’? Psssh you’d love that wouldn’t you! Have fun photoshopping because you got NOTHING” she wrote.

Swift, whose private Twitter messages leaked, then riffed on her own song lyrics, writing, "Cause the hackers gonna hack, hack, hack, hack, hack..."

Sounds like someone really is shaking it off ... but it was a little unnerving for sure.

"Well, now I'm awake," Taylor wrote to fans. "My Twitter got hacked but don't worry."

"Twitter is deleting the hacker tweets and locking my account until they can figure out how this happened and get me a new password. Never a dull moment."

"#THIS IS WHY I'M SCARED OF TECHNOLOGY #WHO'S PARANOID NOW?"

This is not the first time she’s faced claims of nude photos, but none have surfaced ... legitimately. In 2011, a fake topless photo leaked online.

The photo was never conclusively identified as her. Swift, then 22, denied adamantly that she was the girl in the photo, who looked a lot younger.

Fake Emma Watson, Miley Cyrus (before she started taking them herself all the time) and Ariana Grande nude photos have all gone viral.

As we saw with The Fappening last year, anything is open season these days, but as far as we know, only Swift's Twitter and Instagram were hacked.

Both services prohibit posting nude photos.

If such Internet-breaking gold does exist - and given that it's Taylor Swift, it's very possible that it simply does not - it would likely be on the Cloud.

Bottom line: You can find plenty of fakes online if you try, as this has been a cottage industry for years, but don't hold your breath for the real deal.

Thank goodness/sorry.

Taylor Swift Trademarks Phrase "This Sick Beat"

Yesterday, Taylor Swift's Twitter account got hacked.

The group responsible threatened to release nude photos, and Taylor's private messages were soon making the rounds online.

On a day like that, we imagine Taylor pauses for a moment and asks herself if all this fame is really worth it.

Taylor Swift Performs on Stage

Then she remembers that she can make money in ridiculous ways like trademarking random phrases and realizes that it's totally, totally worth it.

Yes, like Paris "That's Hot" Hilton before her, Taylor doesn't want anyone making money off her catchphrases but her.

A recent filing with the US Patent and Trademark Office shows that Taylor has applied for the exclusive rights to the phrase "This Sick Beat," as well as other lines from her smash album 1989, including, "'Cause we never go out of style."

That one's a stretch, but we can understand "Beat," as Taylor's really made it her own.

Plus, if she owns it, that means we won't have to see it on t-shirts and walk around with peppy, white-girl rapping stuck in our head for the rest of the day.

So if you were planning on selling, t-shirts, coffee mugs, whisks, baseball bats, billy clubs or anything else emblazoned with the phrase "This Sick Beat," you better think again.

Otherwise, the only thing that'll be getting beat is you, in court! We'll show ourselves out.

Taylor Swift Hacker: STILL Trying to Sell Nude Photos!

Yesterday, Taylor Swift's Twitter account was hacked, but the man who claims to be responsible doesn't seem to be facing any sort of criminal charges.

Taylor Swift: Hot in NYC

In fact, he's been contacting various media outlets to boast about the hack and try to sell what he claims are nude photos of Swift.

Thus far, sources who have spoken with the man (identified only as "Veri") say he refuses to show the nudes as evidence but has offered several photos of Taylor's Twitter messages, such as this exchange between the singer and Lena Dunham:

Taylor Swift-Lena Dunham Messages

It's clear that the Dunham "molestation" scandal had just taken place at the time the messages were sent, which would mean the conversation occurred in early November.

So the hacker clearly went pretty deep into Taylor's inbox. No one is questioning that he was able to access her social media accounts and that he's in possession of thousands of Taylor's personal correspondences.

However, he's almost certainly lying about the nudes.

For starters, Veri told Gawker blogger Sam Biddle that he's in negotiations to sell the photos to TMZ. Biddle points out that TMZ has a policy against publishing nude photos, even when they're available for free. Thus, it's unlikely they'd bother negotiating with Veri.

In addition, Swift has claimed that she's not in the habit of snapping nude selfies, and frankly, we believe her.

Her private life may not be as squeaky-clean as her public image, but Taylor is mature and media-savvy enough to be well aware of the dangers of someone with her level of fame posing for nudes.

As for the DMs lifted from Taylor's Twitter? We're guessing there's nothing too juicy there. As far as we can tell, Veri's made no attempt to sell them.

Katy Perry CONFIRMS Taylor Swift Feud!

It's official: Katy Perry and Taylor Swift just don't get along. 

Back in September, Taylor released a song called "Bad Blood" that was rumored to be about her beef with Katy.

The next day, Katy tweeted a Mean Girls reference that was widely interpreted as a shot at Taylor.

Both parties have been tight-lipped on the alleged beef, but when asked in a recent Billboard magazine interview if the tweet in question was directed at Taylor, Katy replied simply, "If someone is trying to defame my character, you're going to hear about it."

Sounds like it's on! 

The confirmation couldn't come at a better time for celebrity feud fans.

Katy is playing the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday, and there have long been rumors that Katy's performance will include a shot at Taylor.

It seems insane to think that Katy will engage in such pettiness while appearing in front of the largest audience of her career, but astonishingly, when asked about the possible onstage diss by Entertainment Tonight, Katy dodged the question and promised "surprises."

Yes, it's possible that Katy will give the most jaw-dropping halftime performance since Janet Jackson's infamous "wardrobe malfunction," simply by taking a shot at America's sweetheart, right in the middle of America's biggest game.

We hope it happens just for the spectacle of such an audacious move, but hey, even if she chickens out, at least Katy's Marshawn Lynch impression was amazing.

As previously detailed, Taylor Swift often goes around making the wishes and dreams of her fans come true.

Case in point: the time Swift actually paid off a supporter's student loans.

Over the weekend, meanwhile, Mariska Hargitay and Ellen Pompeo turned the generous tables on Swift, posing together for a picture in Arizona (site of Super Bowl XLIX) and sending it to Swift on Instagram.

Why was this such a special snapshot for the musical superstar?

Because she idolizes the beloved characters portrayed on TV by Hargitay and Pompeo: Olivia Benson on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and Meredith Grey on Grey’s Anatomy, respectively.

She named her cats after them!

“This one goes out to @TaylorSwift13 @taylorswift #CatsOutOfTheBag #NFL #NationalFelineLeague #MeowMeow #CatsMeow,” Hargitay captioned the Instagram photo.

And how did Swift react to it? In adorable fashion, of course!

"OH. MY. GOD.," she wrote in response, while including a link to the lovely image.

Looks like New England Patriots fans weren't the only ones happy about what took place at the Super Bowl!

Katy Perry Subtly Dissed Taylor Swift During Super Bowl Halftime Show?

As you've probably heard, Katy Perry performed at the Super Bowl last night, and the show was pretty much the definition of pulling out all the stops.

It had everything: dancing sharks, Lenny Kravitz pretending to play guitar, Missy Elliott pretending Katy's "dancing" isn't hilarious...the one thing it didn't have is the one thing we'd been looking forward to for months.

Katy and the California Gurls

Ever since it was announced that she was playing the Super Bowl, there were rumors that Katy planned to diss Taylor Swift during her performance.

But either she chickened out or there was no truth to the report in the first place, because no one detected a Swifty burn, and 100 million people can't be wrong, right?

Enter the drama-starved obsessives who claim Katy totally did sneak in a jab at her rival, it was just so subtle that the audience at home would never pick up on it.

See those dancers up there? The ones in the polka-dotted two-pieces? Well, some believe that's Katy's way of throwing shade at Taylor.

Yes, folks seriously took to Twitter with the theory that since Taylor has been known to occasionally rock a high-wasted, patterned bikini, that must be Katy's wearing of firing shots at Swift.

It would be one thing if the dancers looked anything like Taylor, or if one of them got dumped by Harry Styles in the middle of the show. Then we'd be willing to consider this theory.

As it stands, however, there's no reason to believe that there's dancers were up there for any reason other than adding even more eye candy to the lurid, seizure-inducing insanity that was Katy Perry at the Super Bowl.

There's still some debate as to whether or not Katy Perry dissed Taylor Swift during her Super Bowl halftime show, but one thing is for certain: Swifty enjoyed the game as only she can.

It started when she received an epic gameday selfie from Mariska Hargitay and Ellen Pompeo, two of her TV heroines.

Needless to say, she was squealing with delight before kickoff, but judging from her most recent Instagram video, Taylor got almost as much enjoyment out of Malcolm Butler's game-winning interception.

Taylor captioned the above clip, "Instant replay of that interception," but it's really just her cat Olivia Benson (who's named after Hargitay's Law & Order character) catching a treat in adorable slo-mo.

Even so, it's fully worth every second of your time. 

And if you doubt that, just remember the number of minutes you spent watching a grown woman dance with sharks over the weekend. If you had time for that, you have time for this. 

Somewhere, Pete Carroll is trying to explain why you should always throw treats to your pets, rather than just handing them off for an easy victory.

"We had no idea Olivia Benson would make that kind of a play!" sad, sad Pete Carroll is probably saying.

Did Katy Perry just throw a bit of shade at Taylor Swift?

As has been well documented, there's a simmering feud these two pop superstars, with Swift having openly said her song "Bad Blood" is about a rival in the music business.

Sources confirm that Swift holds a grudge because she believes Perry stole a few backup dancers from her back during Swift's "Red" tour in 2012.

Katy Perry on ELLE

Perry has since confirmed the rivalry, and that was before she gave the latest issue of ELLE an exclusive interview.

"You've got to name someone the villain, someone the princess, someone's the mom [and] the dad type - you know there always have to be characters," the artist said of the state music industry. "As pop figures, we're all characters. And the media uses that."

She continued:

"Who is the sweetheart, who is the villain? You know. Taylor's the sweetheart. Kanye's the villain. That's the narrative."

So, who would Perry be? Maybe the one with the big boobs? Yes, at least according to Anna Kendrick.

Granted, Perry is dissing the coverage of Swift more than Swift herself with this take... but her implication is clear: people say Taylor Swift is a "sweetheart."

But she's not. Not based on what Perry knows about her.

What do you think of Katy's words? Are they fighting words? Do you agree with her assessment?

Sound off below as you toggle through GIFs of Perry dominating this past Sunday's Super Bowl halftime show:

The 2015 Grammy Awards are nearly upon us.

And while many artists will be battling it out in many categories, the most sought after prize on an annual basis is nearly always Record of the Year.

Who is up for the title this year?

One veteran and a few relative newbies, really.

There's Taylor Swift, whose "Shake It Off" kicked off a run of musical dominance not seen by a singer in years.

There's Sam Smith, whose voice is as smooth as butter. Nay, smoother!

There's Sia, whose "Chandier" video was easily one of the best of 2014.

There's Iggy Azalea, whose "Fancy" just got stuck in your head, didn't it?

And, finally, there's Meghan Trainor, who is ALL about that bass, people. No treble!

The decision is yours. WHAT DO YOU THINK SHOULD WIN RECORD OF THE YEAR?

It wouldn't be an awards show without Taylor Swift dancing, would it?

The musical icon may not have been scheduled to perform at the 2015 Grammy Awards, but that doesn't mean Swift didn't get some serious moving and grooving in.

She simply saved it for the crowd, as no event of this nature is ever complete without Swift acting all fun and awkward as a fan, is it?

Taylor was also spotted at the Grammys giving Kanye West a hug, as those two have buried the hatchet that's been sticking out ever since West interrupted Swift's speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

We can't get enough of Taylor tossing all inhibition to the Grammys wind, but not everyone appears to agree.

Taylor Swift may not have performed at the 2015 Grammy Awards on Sunday night, but that doesn't mean the singer wasn't a very busy young woman.

She made up with Kanye West. She danced and danced and danced. And she also buried all hatchets with Diplo, as evidenced by the following snapshot:

Diplo and Taylor Swift

"Then this happened @taylorswift vs taylor spliff #grammys2015l," Diplo wrote as a caption to the photo, which was taken at an after-Grammy Awards party.

The famous DJ made headlines in late November when he Tweeted the following:

"Someone should make a kickstarter to get taylor swift a booty."

He later claimed to know many Taylor Swift secrets and also slammed the star's fans as "the worst people in the world."

Soon after Diplo's initial diss, Lorde came to the defense of her best friend and shot back at Diplo:

"@Diplo should we do something about your tiny penis while we're at it hm."

OUCH! More than just a little shade thrown!

We wonder if Lorde will take back her insult and perhaps offer up some kind words about Diplo's unit now that the DJ and Swift are no longer sworn enemies.

Forget announcing one's pregnancy doggy style.

Kimmy and Tandy Baker have taken to the Internet in order to make this life-changing reveal in another creative way: Taylor Swift style!

The couple recently posted a parody of Swift's latest single, "Blank Space," making the lyrics apply more to their impending addition than the violent breakup Taylor sings about in the actual track.

"So it’s gonna be our first boy. Or it’s gonna be another girl. You can tell we’re expecting. So come on let’s give it a whirl," Kimmy croons in the video, adding of her surprising third kid:

"Got a long list of my favorites. You’ll think that they’re insane. Cuz we’re having another baby. So let’s pick a name.”

Pretty amazing, no?

“I was listening to Blank Space while cleaning the house one day and when I heard name I knew that was the song,” Kimmy told ABC News. “So we just had to build it around naming the baby and boom! We have our announcement song.”

They also clearly have the name: How can it not be Taylor?!? For a boy or a girl?

Among other creative pregnancy announcement we adore, this photobooth reveal still brings tears to our eyes.

Pharrell Glares at Taylor Swift Dancing, Performs "Happy" at Grammy Awards

Pharrell Williams performed live at the Grammy Awards last night, but he made almost as many headlines for his reaction to Taylor Swift dancing.

Safe to say he was not "Happy" with what he saw:

Given her supermodel-esque height and general lack of rhythm, Taylor Swift dancing at the Grammys was as cute, painful and awkward as ever.

The 25-year-old knows this, too. And she owns it.

Heck, it's basically the entire premise behind “Shake it Off,” the song that took her from America's Sweetheart to America's ... Even Bigger Sweetheart.

The world, by and large, loves some Taylor Swift, and the fact that Taylor Swift continues her terrible dancing despite its terribleness does not hurt.

At least one person was not amused, however.

Swift may have a years-long history of rocking out at various awards shows, but that doesn't mean Pharrell wants to sit directly behind this display:

Yeah. That lanky gal sure loves to get down.

In particular, Taylor was freaking out over the Madonna Grammy performance last night, letting the sick beats consume every fiber of her being.

The Pinterest board inspirational quote staple "dance like no one's watching" takes on new meaning when Pharrell is watching from a few feet away.

With a sinister, icy stare of death.

Williams' side-eye didn't dissuade her, obviously, nor did the fact that CBS disseminated her antics to 40 million viewers of the 2015 Grammy Awards.

As for Pharrell, he had another buzzed-about moment in front of the cameras as well. Watch him perform a ghoulish version of his hit "Happy" last night:

From the triumphant moments to the buzz-worthy performances and plenty of great scenes from the audience, the 2015 Grammy Awards ceremony had it all.

Here, we look back at 25 of the best moments in GIFs:

Sam Smith thanked his ex for inspiring him (weirdly, he didn't thank Tom Petty). Madonna twerked ... kinda ... ish ... then got twirled around by a Matador ... kinda ... ish.

Arianna Grande and Big Sean got all PDA-ish, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen danced in their seats, McCartney kinda danced in his, Jay Z and Beyonce hugged, Kim Kardashian looked confused, and Kanye ...

Well Kanye was Kanye.

Kanye showed up for the first time in six years and "pretended" to interrupt Beck. Program note: pretending to interrupt is the same thing as actually interrupting, Kanye. But we'll let it slide.

Kanye has famously never won a Grammy for album of the year, even though he all but demanded it in 2005, saying "If I don’t win Album of the Year, I’m really gonna have a problem with that."

Well, somehow that approach hasn't worked yet, and still the Grammys march on without feeling obligated to serve Kanye up with anything other than another performance opportunity, and an opportunity to run his mouth.

This year, Kanye insulted Beck, saying that he should've given the Album of the Year award to Beyonce, and insinuated that he and the other "real artists" are through "playing" with The Grammys.

Meanwhile, his confused muse, Kim Kardashian showed up in this dress, which was the closest thing to elegant about either of them.

Taylor Swift looked fierce, as did Rihanna and Paul McCartney. But the real story was Yeezus, and his entitled tirade after the show.

Was their a saving grace? Well, as always it was Beyonce with a moving gospel performance that closed the show.

Taylor Swift had quite the night at the 2015 Grammy Awards.

Not only did GIFs of Taylor dancing go viral, but she managed to avoid getting Kanye'd. (That was Beck's honor this year.)

All in all, a pretty good night for T-Swift. So how did she celebrate? By hanging with her besties and some cats, of course:

Note the painful awkwardness of the moment that Nancy O'Dell says Swift will be hanging out with "lots of men" after the show.

Taylor seems momentarily taken aback, but she recovers gracefully and informs O'Dell of how it's really gonna go down:

"I'm not gonna walk home with any men tonight," Taylor quickly corrects the clueless ET host. "I'm gonna go hang out with my friends, and then I'm gonna go home and hang out with the cats."

It's good to hear that Taylor isn't shying away from the the title of World's Most Fabulous Cat Lady, but she didn't quite succeed in her goal of avoiding all forms of dude drama.

Not only did her ex John Mayer provide one of the evening's highlights when he took the stage with Ed Sheeran, but Taylor posed with Diplo in a selfie that seemed to suggest the beef between the two was - at least temporarily - squashed.

Of course, it wouldn't be the Grammys unless Taylor was surrounded by exes and haters. We think next year she should send a message by bringing on of her cats as her date.

Taylor Swift and Hozier: Dating?!

After having learned her lesson from crash-and-burn relationships with Joe Jonas, Jake Gyllenhaal, John Mayer, Harry Styles (you get the point) Taylor Swift has become far more selective about the men that she dates.

Sure, there have been plenty of rumors about her love life, and Taylor hung out with Diplo on Grammy night, so clearly her douche magnet is still in working order, but for the most part, Swifty's been devoting her free time to her cats and army of female besties.

Taylor confirms that she's single every chance that she gets, but according to those closest to the pop queen, she's been spending lots of time with Irish up-and-comer Hozier in recent weeks.

Hozier - if you're not familiar - is the dude who sings that "Take Me to Church" song that's in every commercial that's been produced in the past year.

He was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2015 Grammy Awards, and sources say he and Taylor spent much of the evening doing some serious canoodling.

"They were hanging out and talking with each other all night," a source tells E! News, adding the Swift and Hozier exchanged several pecks on the cheek.

The love-fest wasn't just a Grammy-night thing, however.

Hozlor (as we've taken to calling the couple) was spotted at a recent Haim concert, and Hozier has been gushing about his new "friend" Taylor in interviews.

So is this the real deal, or just Taylor adding to her ever-growing roster of young, hip friends? Only time (and the inevitable breakup song) will tell.
