Taylor Swift's gang of fierce gal pals has taken over the red carpet lately, but there's one celebrity you won't see hanging out with them.

Singer Rihanna says she has no intentions of joining Taylor's crew, because it simply doesn't "make sense."

Asked by NME if she would consider joining Tay-Tay on stage for one of her 1989 gigs á la Karlie, Kendall, Cara and co, Rihanna had a pretty clear answer… No.

"I don’t think our brands are the same: I don’t think they match," she explained.

"I don’t think our audiences are the same. In my mind she’s a role model, I’m not."

While RiRi is happy to stay out of the gang for now, Taylor admitted in the September issue of Vanity Fair that she needs her Girl Squad "now more than ever."

Despite the amount of female stars that Taylor counts as BFFs (check the Bad Blood video for proof), she has no problem keeping in touch with them all.

"My friends and I text every day," she said.

"That’s 20 to 25 girls. We know when everybody’s in New York, who’s in town, who’s in L.A. Being a huge group of girls who love each other, we know where everyone is… I’ve never had this before."

As for Rihanna, she might not be part of the Bad Blood crew, but she certainly has a Squad of her own, made up mainly of solid childhood friends and colleagues, like her long-time PA Jenn Rosales and her oldest gal pal Melissa Forde.
