After kicking off the 1989 tour in Tokyo last week, Taylor Swift was back in LA this weekend. On Saturday she was seen at Wango Tango, dancing and cheering during her boyfriend Calvin Harris’s set. Yesterday she was out on a hike with Gigi Hadid. Gigi is one of the many Friends Of Taylor (FOT) featured in the upcoming Bad Blood video that will premiere at the Billboard Music Awards on Sunday.

As you know, over the last few days, Taylor’s been posting FOT character posters from the video on Instagram. Lily Aldridge, Zendaya, Ellie Goulding, Lena Dunham, etc, etc, etc…

And this just in… half an hour ago…

And it’s not like he hasn’t been receptive. He’s shouted her out in a few interviews too. Now… they’re finally coming together. It’s probably her greatest boast of all time. It’s the kind of boast that Gwyneth Paltrow used to be great at. Like, oh, you hate me? That’s OK. Because I’m hanging out with Kendrick Lamar. Mind over matter never worked for my nemesis…WHAT?!
