Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj are the latest celebs to air their dirty laundry over Twitter.

The two songstresses have found themselves going head to head over their respective nominations for this year’s VMA awards. Although, at further inspection it seems like there may have been a miscommunication somewhere along the way.

The nominations for this year’s MTV Video Music Awards were released yesterday, with Taylor being nominated in an outstanding nine categories, including video of the year for Bad Blood.

Ms Minaj also received a hefty amount of nominations, including the nod for best female video and best hip-hop video for Anaconda.

But Nicki made no secret about how she felt slighted not being nominated for video of the year.

The Starships singers took to Twitter to voice her opinion. “If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year.”

As Taylor was nominated amongst Ed Sheeran, Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars, Kendrick Lamar and Beyoncé, it is understandable that Nicki’s comment seemed like a dig at her.

Taylor replied saying “I’ve done nothing but love & support you. It’s unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot.”

However, Nicki’s reply made it seem as if she didn’t know what Tay-Tay was talking about. “Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn’t say a word about u. I love u just as much. But u should speak on this.”

Could Taylor have simply misunderstood Nicki’s slight, or is Ms Minaj simply trying to cover herself after insulting an innocent person?

After picking up a whopping nine nominations today for the MTV VMAs, singer Taylor Swift rewarded fans by letting them in on a behind-the-scenes look at the prep for one of her most successful videos to date.

Bad Blood, which earned Taylor the majority of her VMA noms today, definitely showed Taylor at her fiercest yet, kicking villainous ass with an all-female team of allies, including Cara Delevingne, Selena Gomez, Ellie Goulding, Lena Dunham and Gigi Hadid.

The physical element of the video took a serious amount of training, as Taylor revealed today with a throwback video to her first day learning to fight with the help of two stuntmen.

"Throwback to my first day of fight training for the Bad Blood music video. Thank you so much for the 9 nominations," the singer wrote.

While most of Taylor's Instagram updates revolve around her cats, baking, her celebrity pals and her on-stage antics, behind it all is a pretty strict fitness regime, too. "For me, working out is not so I can get skinny,” the naturally slim star told WebMD's magazine a few years back. “It’s so that I’m not panting on stage.”

These days, she takes SoulCycle classes with her pal Karlie Kloss when in New York, and hikes the Hollywood Hills while in Los Angeles. When it comes to her workouts, she's a cardio freak, saying she prefers running over anything else.

"I don’t like any kind of exercise other than running. And I love that because it’s about the music,” Taylor admits. “For me … running is about blasting a whole bunch of new songs and running to the beat. It’s also good because it makes me find a gym wherever I am."

Taylor Swift is doing a Kanye West on it, people.

The singer has most definitely conquered the world of music and now she is turning her hand to fashion with a brand new clothing line. Sadly for us though, it's only going to be available to fans in China. Taylor's 1989 World Tour hits Asia soon, and to celebrate, her new official clothing line will be available for purchase on Chinese fashion site JD.com.

The designs are being launched in conjunction with Heritage 66, a company which helps American celebs to boost their careers in China. Very savvy. Featuring a range of "high-quality dresses, sweatshirts and tops" all "created by Taylor Swift," the collection launches next month, according to CNN Money.

As yet it's unclear whether the new clothing range will be branded with Taylor's name and lyrics, as with the official merch already available on her official site:

Back in January the singer caused controversy among fans when it was announced she was trademarking a number of her lyrics, including, "This Sick Beat”, “Party Like It’s 1989″, “Cause We Never Go Out of Style” and “Nice To Meet You. Where You Been?"

The aim of the trademarks was to prevent any unofficial merchandise making its way to the mainstream market, effectively giving Tay a monopoly on any clothing or accessories featuring her name or lyrics.

Is there anything this girl hasn't thought of?

Tay-Tay’s godson is finally here!

Jaime King and her husband welcomed their second son into the world last Thursday, although it wasn’t until yesterday that they announced the news.

The Sin City star took to Instagram to share the news with her fans. She posted a photo with her husband and their oldest son and captioned it “We are SO happy to welcome to the world our new baby boy! Born Thursday, July 16th! Xx.”

Taylor Swift, who is a close friend of the new mother, announced back in March that she was to be the godmother of Ms King’s new baby.

Ms Swift was one of many stars including Gigi Hadid, Calvin Harris and Joe Jonas that attended the baby shower being held for the Pearl Harbour actress last month.

Taylor Swift is a big ol' romantic, and she's not going to let us forget that any time soon.

The singer revealed over the weekend that she credits one thing in particular with bringing her and Calvin Harris together… a "magical spell" cast by none other than Lady Gaga. We kid you not.

Taylor's admission came when a fan tweeted to lament about his own love life, writing, "I pride myself on still thinking love can be like a romantic comedy but sometimes I just think I'm behind and just won't catch up."

Never one to let a fan get down on themselves, Taylor responded a few hours later and referenced a message she'd gotten from Lady Gaga a few months back.

"Go read Gaga's tweet that she sent me a few months ago. It's good love luck. Because it's not a tweet. It's a magical spell," she wrote.

The tweet in question, sent back in March, came after news of Gaga's engagement to Taylor Kinney hit the media. "Is it just me or is Lady Gaga, like, fully LIVING right now?" wrote T-Swift at the time. Gaga then responded by calling Taylor a "a sweetheart" and adding, "Your prince charming will come!"

Just a couple of weeks later, Taylor's budding romance with Scottish DJ Calvin became official when he flew her out to Las Vegas in a private jet to watch him perform. Yup, that spell worked. Very well indeed.

Gaga continued the good karma flow over the weekend when she took to Twitter again to tell Taylor, "I only cast happy spells! Unless there's bad blood. I have a separate cauldron for that. Happy for u."

Too cute.

Ooooh, we wouldn’t like to get on the bad side of Tay-Tay, that’s for sure!

Taylor Swift has jumped to the rescue of one of her fans who was subjected to some very negative comments from a troll on Tumblr.

The ironic part? One of the user’s offensive statements claimed that Taylor probably doesn’t even use her own Tumblr account. I think we can say that the troll definitely got what was coming to them when Ms Swift herself shut them down.

“Why do you seem to think Taylor Swift loves you? She doesn’t love you,” the cruel post began. “You don’t know her. Would you stop posting like she knows you or is actually reading it already, because she’s not.

“It’s probably not even her using her tumblr. So, please stop.”

And just in case the user thought they hadn’t sufficiently insulted their victim, they threw in one final upsetting insult. “Also, everyone seem to think you’re pretty, don’t they? Well, I think you think you are with all your selfies. Your not.”

Luckily, the Bad Blood singer caught wind of the abuse her little Swifites were suffering and came to the rescue.

“Trying to figure out if I’m more offended by the senseless negativity or the fact that he/she/it used the wrong form of ‘you’re.’ I doubt we will get apologies for either crime,” the 25-year-old posted.

“We must now forget about this and keep groovin/using correct grammar.”

Somehow we think the Tumblr troll is feeling pretty ashamed right about now… Or at least they should be!

Cuteness overload. Calvin Harris is loving life as Taylor Swift's new boyfriend and he's not afraid to talk about it.

Although a quick glance at Taylor or Calvin's social media feeds leave no doubt that the pair are most definitely an item, neither of the lovebirds have spoken in public about their relationship… until now. 

Speaking to UK radio station Kiss FM this week, the Scottish DJ said he was "insanely happy" despite all the over-hyped media coverage surrounding his blossoming romance with T-Swift. "It's interesting because obviously there's a different thing written about it [their relationship] every day, you know, and it's kind of like even if we don't do anything publicly for a while, someone will make something up," he explained.

"But for me it could still be a lot worse and I'd still be like insanely happy with it, so I'm good with it.''

The smitten star says he is even willing to deal with all of the "ridiculous" stories that have been fabricated about the pair. "There'll be some sort of story, and they get more and more ridiculous. Whether I'm allergic to cats or we're moving in or we're getting married next week, you've just got to take it how it is, which is just that sort of news story which people read."

Calvin and Taylor met for the first time at the BRIT Awards back in February, just two weeks before Calvin split from his girlfriend of one year, Aarika Wolf. Coincidence? We think not.

Since getting together the couple have had a whirlwind romance, with Calvin accompanying Taylor to various cities on her 1989 tour and the pair fitting in quality time at the Shake It Off singer's homes in New York, LA and Rhode Island.

We're delighted to see they're both so happy!

There are certain voices that whenever you hear, you can’t help but become transported into the world of the story they are telling,

We’re talking Morgan Freeman, James Earl Jones, Donald Sutherland, Jon Snow (the Channel 4 one) and of course, Sir Ian McKellan.

But did you ever think that you would hear the Lord of the Rings star doing a dramatic reading of our favourite popstar’s songs?

Well, you are in for a treat.

The 76-year-old X-Men star gave an (almost) Oscar-worthy performance in a video for Yahoo! when he read aloud Taylor Swfit’s Bad Blood before he switched over to Mark Ronson’s Uptown Funk.

As Tay-Tay is known for flying celebrities all over the globe to join her own stage, we are just praying that Sir Ian is going to be her next mystery guest.

Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift are very different people these days from when they started out as country music's sweethearts back in their teens.

While at one stage they definitely seemed to be friends, neither of them have made any secret of the fact that they don't see eye to eye any longer, and Miley Cyrus took the opportunity to poke some fun at her fellow pop star on social media today.

The Wrecking Ball singer headed to Instagram to re-post a faceswap of Taylor and Justin Bieber with the caption "…they look like a cute lesbian couple."

We couldn't help but laugh, though somehow we doubt Taylor's reaction was quite as positive. 

Back in 2008 and 2009, Taylor and Miley's friendship was the envy of tweens the world over, especially when they duetted to Taylor's hit Fifteen at the 2009 Grammys.

Fast-forward a few years though, and the singers had definitely grown apart, with Miley subtly criticising Taylor's outfit choice at the 2013 VMAs, saying that attendees were meant to have fun and were not "supposed to show up in a gown, Vanna White-style."

Plus, who can forget Taylor's reaction to Miley's Blurred Lines performance with Robin Thicke that very same year?

If the girls were on shaky ground before that, we reckon that awards show was certainly the last straw. Of course, this isn't the only badly-hidden feud Taylor has with a female pop singer, given that she and Katy Perry spent months slinging insults back and forth last year following a disagreement over backing dancers.

In a tell-all interview with Rolling Stone, Taylor said she was "straight-up enemies" with another female star, and though she didn't name Katy directly, it was almost certainly in reference to her. 

"She did something so horrible," Swift says. "I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies.' And it wasn't even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me."

As is to be expected, Taylor has not made any response to Miley's social media dig as yet, but you can bet there is some serious shade throwing going on behind closed doors…

Lena Dunham has admitted that being a part of Taylor Swift’s posse is not always so fantastic. We can’t believe it.

Lena, who featured in the Bad Blood video has recently admitted that she feels “chubby” when she hangs out with Taylor and the squad.

 Considering she took to the stage alongside some Victoria’s Secret alumni not too long ago, we can imagine it could be a bit intimidating.

The Girls creator has confessed that she felt very self-conscious standing beside models Gigi Hadid and Lily Aldridge as well as Pitch Perfect 2 star Hailee Steinfeld.

"I was so thrilled to support my friend and so displeased to learn about the truth of my own height,” Lena said about the appearance in New Jersey last Friday.

"I've been feeling pretty tall, feeling pretty sturdy, and it was amazing to me, like, 'Oh, I'm not tall, I'm chubby.' It's different."

According to Lena she never notices the difference when the squad are hanging out off-stage.

Probably because nobody can really look all that leggy and glamorous in a onesie. Which seems to be the groups’ outfit of choice for socialising.

“On most days, I feel really great and fine about, but I don't think standing next to, like, three supermodels or so is anything even the most confident woman needs to do.”

We are inclined to agree with Lena.

“The minute I caught sight of myself in the Jumbotron, I knew something was very wrong."

This is why we’re not that upset for not being in the most A-list clique to exist, wearing heels all the time to compensate would be too painful.

So far on her 1989 World Tour, Taylor Swift has been joined by a whole host of celeb BBFs on stage, including Gigi Hadid (twice), Karlie Kloss (twice), Kendall Jenner, Serena Williams, Lena Dunham and Selena Gomez to name just a few.

One of her pals was notably absent from the on-stage reunions… until now. Last night fans in Washington DC got a huge treat when T-Swift was joined on stage by none other than Lorde.

The Kiwi singer flew for almost a full day and night to get to the US in time to duet with Taylor on stage, and she didn't disappoint, joinging Tay for an epic rendition of Royals.

Earlier in the evening, Taylor promised concertgoers a "really good surprise" if they "maintained their awesomeness," adding, "Hint number one: this artist flew 19 hours from her hometown to be here with you."

Lorde herself tweeted just now to gush about how wonderful the show was, posting a picture of the pair on stage and calling Taylor "the leader of a great and beautiful galaxy that I'd live in forever":

Shortly after Lorde's appearance, poor Taylor got herself in a bit of a bind when part of her set malfunctioned, leaving her stranded on an extendable balcony hundreds of feet off the ground.

"They just told me in my ear that I might be stuck up here forever," she told the crowd. "This thing is broken… We're just gonna have to rechoreograph the entire show. It's fine. Whatever. It's gonna be a unique show D.C.!"

Never one to be fazed, Taylor barreled on with her set list while she waited for the balcony to be fixed, segueing into her next song without a hitch. Nice.

Sounds like it was an absolutely epic show all in all.

Taylor Swift seems to be taking over the world, one bestie at a time.

A few weeks ago at her London gig, her pals Cara, Kendall and Gigi joined her on stage and we thought things didn't get much better than that. But last night, it reached another level.

The 23-year-old first shared the stage with American rapper The Weekend, before being joined by the entire American women's soccer team after their victory of winning the world cup.

Taylor posted a photo to Instagram saying "Got to welcome the U.S. Women's Soccer Team home after their World Cup Victory- I LOVE THEM AND THEY ARE THE NICEST."

But it gets even better, some of Taylor's closest pals joined her on stage to recreate the 'Bad Blood' music video. 

Taylor surprised her fans when she called on Lena Dunham, Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid and Lily Aldrige to join her on stage. 

The talented songstress who is travelling the world with her epic 1989 tour played a montage from friends before being joined on stage by her super group of friends. 

The montage included clips from Lena Dunham saying “I’m surprised that when she walks down the street, stray cats down come towards her because she’s the patron saint of cats,” 

This clip also includes Karlie Kloss explaining that "it's not about where you are, it's about who your with".
