Taylor Swift

Anyone can be a Taylor Swift fan, it turns out. Including Nicholas Hoult, who was filmed giving it welly at her gig in Montreal earlier this week.

The X-Men star took a break from filming to head along to the sold-out concert with a host of fellow celebs, including his co-stars James McAvoy and Sophie Turner. Kate Bosworth was also spotted in the VIP area, but Nicholas was definitely the star of the evening with those moves.

 

His favourite song? We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together. He must have some strong feelings on the Jennifer Lawrence situation, so. 

Taylor posted a photo with some of the X-Men crew later that night, including James, Sophie and the film's producer Simon Kinberg. Either Nicholas was the one taking the photo or he just didn't make the cut, but either way we're kinda gutted for him.

After all that dancing?

 

Absolutely loved having @sophiet, Simon, James, and Nicholas at the show in Montreal last night– X MEN APOCALYPSE!!

The singer has had a pretty high-profile cast of guests at her gigs so far on the 1989 World Tour, with everyone from Emma Watson, Serena Williams, Karlie Kloss, Cara Delevingne. Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner coming along… and that was just at her London gig.

Dublin's concerts were pretty low-key in terms of VIP guests, though Taylor's new squeeze Calvin Harris did hide out by the sound box at the 3Arena on both nights:

If only Nicholas had made it to Dublin…

We know by now that Taylor Swift likes to keep track of some her fans social media activity.

She did after all recently weigh in on one Tumblr users fashion dilemma with some red carpet advice.

Yesterday, she tweeted her love of a fan’s cover of Bad Blood, and now Alessia Cara has created a social media storm.

She’s already been creating some buzz in the industry since her hit Here went viral, but considering the amount of Swift covers that exist on YouTube already, we think the fact that Taylor put the spotlight on this one is saying something.

Looks like Gigi might have to move over because we think it won’t be long before Alessia gets her own inflatable swan and joins the ultimate girl squad.

Taylor wrote on Twitter that she thinks Alessia is "AMAZING". She used all capitals so you know she's being very serious. 

Alessia’s more relaxed version of Bad Blood, including Kendrick Lamar’s rap, has grabbed the attention of the 25-year old music star and her 60million followers since Tay-Tay retweeted the video.

We imagine that’s probably the best shout-out Alessia could have imagined.

Her reaction pretty much sums up what any of us would have done after receiving a nod from the Grammy winner.

Nicely done, Alessia.

Back in 2012 Beyoncé was pretty much everywhere, and not a lot has changed in 2015, or did you not hear about that skyscraper being built in Melbourne?

She was also in the headlines when Rutgers University announced that their students would be able to enrol in a class titled “Feminist Perspectives: Politicizing Beyoncé”. Yes, it actually happened.

Not the first time a pop culture icon has made their way into the academics, we should point out. Beyoncé’s husband Jay Z was the topic of a course offered at Georgetown University.

Students study everything including her live performances, they also do in-depth analysis of hits such as Grown Woman and Flawless.

Recently, Jezebel discussed what actually happened in a Beyoncé class, and we were very intrigued.

Kevin Allred, who has been teaching the course for three years, says one of the main questions he wants students to ask is “can something like mainstream pop culture ever lead to progressive social change?”

He also enjoys having highly entertaining discussions with his students about her 7/11 video and how he envisions Blue Ivy in the background “directing the clip from her high chair”.

This led us think about what other famous celebrities we wouldn’t mind getting the chance to study, we managed to narrow the list down, but to be honest, we think Zac Efron and his brother’s abs could have their own degree.

If you needed further proof that Taylor Swift has a heart of gold, here it is.

The pop star might be criticised from time to time for being fake or fame-hungry, but a recent gesture to a fan shows that underneath it all she is a kind-hearted soul. The Shake It Off singer got wind of a young fan in Arizona who was in need of financial aid to fund her cancer treatment, and in true Taylor style, she stepped up to the plate. 

11-year-old Taylor superfan Naomi Oakes had tickets to see the singer in concert in Phoenix next month, but after being diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukaemia just a couple of weeks ago, it emerged that the youngster would be unable to leave the hospital for the next six to eight months as doctors carried out a series of aggressive treatments to try and beat the disease.

With her treatment costing anywhere from $30,000 (€27,000), Naomi's uncle set up a GoFundMe page in the hope that family and friends would donate – but he didn't bank on a certain pop star helping out too.

In an effort to get Taylor's attention and bring a smile back to Naomi's face after a scary few weeks, her family recorded a video earlier this week telling the little girl's story and asking fellow Taylor fans to help spread the word on social media. Their aim was to get Taylor to share the #TeamNaomi hashtag on her Instagram, but instead the pop star did something even more special.

Posting on Naomi's GoFundMe page last night, Taylor made an incredible donation of $50,000 (€45,000), and added a personal message to her fan. "To the beautiful and brave Naomi, I'm sorry you have to miss it, but there will always be more concerts," the singer wrote. 

"Let's focus on getting you feeling better. I'm sending the biggest hugs to you and your family."

Last night Naomi's family posted this beautiful video of their daughter finding out what had happened:

What a lovely story – wishing Naomi a full recovery.

They’ve only been together for a few months but apparently these two love birds are already talking about marriage.

Taylor Swift, 25, and Calvin Harris, 31 (aka Taylvin), met and got together in February and have since been showcasing their loved-up status as a twosome all over social media.

Taylor’s celebrity filled party last weekend seemed to be just another excuse for her and beau, and her beau’s abs, to appear on our Instagram feeds seeming completely smitten.

According to Reveal magazine the two are taking their relationship to the next level by planning their future together.

A source told the publication that despite being worth a total of €130m, neither wants to sign a prenuptial agreement, but they are at least happy to talk honeymoons.

 

A photo posted by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on

Apparently the two are big adventure seekers, as the source said they “would love to take a camper van and disappear either in Europe or North America for a while."

They’ve also apparently been discussing serious details about the Big Day. Taylor apparently “would love a big wedding at home but she loved Scotland and could be persuaded to do it there, especially as her family can travel more than his extended family can."

Things certainly seems to be escalating rather quickly for the pair.

There are reports, however, that Taylor’s family may not be so on-board with her not wishing to sign a pre-nup (fair enough really – she's worth at least twice what he is).

 

A photo posted by Taylor Swift (@taylorswift) on

Taylvin have even just recently surpassed megastars Beyoncé and Jay-Z are the world’s most powerful couple.

The source says that Tay-Tay and Mr Harris both “know what they want from the future” so apparently “pre-nups and marriage came up in the conversation almost straight away”.

There hasn’t been any comment from reps for either of the stars on the story, so maybe we might be getting our hopes up; but could you imagine the invite list for that wedding?

While on this side of the pond we may not have been throwing any star studded bashes to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend, some of our favourite celebs stateside were showing their patriotism in the best ways, with pool parties and plenty of red, white and blue bikinis.

Kate Hudson’s dancing skills and Taylor Swift’s celebrity squad bash were only two of the fun filled events captured on social media. Some of our favourite famous faces really got into the spirit of things over the weekend and we rounded up some of our favourite snaps they shared on social media to mark the celebrations. 

Lucy Hale sported some patriotic bikini style:

Last year Taylor Swift gave us some serious squad envy when she spent the day hanging out with Girls stars Lena Dunham, and her bestie Jaime King.

Oh, and Emma Stone, just because she’s Taylor Swift.

This year she took things to a whole new level. In part because her new BF has got some serious abs happening. Have you seen Calvin Harris’ abs? If you haven’t let Taylor help you out.

In her latest loved-up Instagram snap, the singer-songwriter, and all round hero, Taylor gets a helpful piggyback ride from her new beau. And his abs.

Captioning the photo with “Friendly relations between Scotland and America,” the 25-year old is not shy about her new relationship.

This girl knows how to celebrate the 4th of July.

Earlier in the day the Bad Blood singer posted some great snaps of her squad celebrating the American holiday at what looks like an epic pool party.

Not content with making it a couple’s only affair, Taylor’s other famous friends were on hand to help get the weekend started early.

On Friday the whole squad were chilling on their favourite pool accessories, including unicorns and swans.

Some of the other famous faces included Gigi Hadid, Martha Hunt the Victoria’s Secret mode and the members of the band Haim. We have serious FOMO.

Taylor captioned the image “Swan squad,” because she loves that inflatable swan.

It first made its social media debut last month with Taylor and Calvin confirming their relationship status in a cute photo.

 

Swan goals.

We bet that swan knows some secrets.

Thank you Taylor, for making our weekend plans seem a little less exciting. To be fair, she has earned a little downtime considering her 1989 tour has been one big energetic whirlwind since it began in May.

Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift are undoubtedly one of the most powerful couples in the world at the moment, despite the fact that neither of them has even spoken about their blossoming romance to the media. If it wasn't for the joys of social media (and the photographers at this year's Billboard Awards) we'd have no way of even knowing the couple were official.

But while Taylor has been enjoying sharing an insight into her new relationship via Instagram over the last few weeks, her new man hasn't been feeling quite so open.

Instead of the cute couple shots that have been popping up on Taylor's feed, all Calvin has given us so far is a look at the singer's famous feline friends, Olivia and Meredith… until now.

Obviously feeling all loved-up after a whirlwind trip around the UK and Ireland over the last week as part of Taylor's 1989 World Tour, Calvin finally gave us his own glimpse into the couple's lives.

Posting a picture of Taylor grilling some veggies and steaks on a barbecue, Scottish DJ Calvin wrote, "She cooks too" followed by a series of flame emojis.

Cute!

Although this is the first time Calvin's posted a picture of his new lady love, he did (sort of) address the relationship on Twitter last week when he congratulated Taylor on her win over Apple's new music streaming service.

"I just played a gig inside a giant owl and my girl just changed the entire music industry what a day," he wrote in a "subtle" reference to his new girlfriend.

We're glad to see the pair are doing well – here's to more cute pictures soon.

Calvin Harris is currently being jetted around Europe courtesy of his new girlfriend Taylor Swift, but she's not his first high-profile girlfriend.

Long before even meeting Taylor, Calvin dated How We Do singer Rita Ora, and although things ended extremely messily, Rita says there's no bad feelings there at all nowadays.

Although Calvin was dating another woman prior to meeting Taylor – model Aarika Wolf – all eyes are on Rita now to see what she thinks of her ex's romance with a rival singer. There's no drama here though, as Rita says she's simply not the jealous type.

"I'm a girl's girl. I'm not going to have that first instinct of jealousy vibe," she told the Evening Standard.

Taylor and Rita have been pictured together numerous times at award shows, although they haven't seen much of each other since Calvin came on the scene. In fact, it's rumoured Rita stayed backstage at the recent Billboard Music Awards to avoid coming face-to-face with the couple. However Rita still speaks highly of the Shake It Off singer and says she has the utmost respect for her work.

"I think she's one of the most incredible songwriters of our generation. I'm not even just saying it," she told music channel Noisey back in May. "I support women and it comes back to you. I'd love that support. There's a fine line between believing in yourself and being a f***ng arsehole. I don't step on people's toes," she added.

Calvin and Rita dated for a year before things came to a sudden end last summer. Relations soon turned hostile when Scottish DJ Calvin refused to let his ex perform their joint track I Will Never Let You Down at last year's Teen Choice Awards, something which Rita says made things a bit "weird" between them.

We're glad to see there's no grudges being held after all of that drama.

As die-hard Taylor Swift fans (shameless one, at that), we thought we knew everything there was to know about the Taylor/Calvin love story.

He's allergic to her cats but he puts up with it, they love a good gluten-free pizza and their favourite mode of transport is an inflatable swan. That's everything, right? Not quite.

Singer Selena Gomez, who happens to be one of Taylor's besties, was speaking on a New Zealand radio station this week when she dropped a serious bombshell about the couple. Chatting to hosts Guy Williams, Sharon Casey and Clint Roberts, Selena revealed that Taylor doesn't refer to her man as "Calvin," as we had all thought.

She doesn't call him by a nickname either, though. Nope, she calls him "Adam"…. which it turns out is his name IRL. Mind. Blown.

Selena made the comment when chatting about how hard to was to figure out whether to call her own ex-boyfriend Zedd by his real name, Anton.

"I made this deal," she said. "I said it to Calvin Harris too. I was like, ‘Look, you guys have two names. It really is frustrating. I need to know which name I should call you because I don’t know what is what. So I speak with the real names. Adam and Anton."

Hear the clip below from 5:25:

Born Adam Richard Wiles, Scottish DJ Calvin has been using his stage name for over a decade, but outside of work he prefers his birth title.

Of course, a couple wouldn't be a couple without some cutesy pet names, and a source reveals to HollywoodLife that Taylor does call her man "Addy" from "time to time."

Wonder if he calls her "Tay-Tay"?

Taylor Swift fan Nicole Nic Cártaigh was left devastated yesterday when she was rushed to hospital and as a result missed her chance to see Taylor Swift perform at the 3 Arena.

The 19-year-old, who hails from Limerick, suffered a spinal cord injury last December, an accident which has left her paralysed from the waist down.

A Taylor Swift super-fan, she was due to attend the singer-songwriter's concert yesterday after her boyfriend, Aidan, managed to get them both tickets to the high-profile gig.

After Ashley’s accident, Ticketmaster had ensured the pair could change their tickets so that Ashley and Aidan to be in the wheelchair area.

When Ashley was rushed to hospital last night, her sister Nicole took to Facebook to see if there was any way she could make her sister’s dreams come true.

Nicole has written a post on the 3 Arena's Facebook page and is hoping that there might be some way for her sister to get her chance to meet Taylor before the singer departs from Ireland: she next brings her tour to the Canadian capital of Ottawa on July 6.

Ashley is a HUGE Taylor Swift fan, and considering Tay-Tay has a pretty admirable track-record when it comes to making her fans' dreams come true, we’ve all got our fingers and toes crossed that the young woman will be given the chance to meet her idol.

Katy Perry has now been named the highest paid female musician in the world – as well as the third highest paid celebrity around. 

Katy earned a huge €120m in the past 12 months and, according to the July edition of Forbes magazine, she earns more than many other of our favourite musicians… cough, cough arch nemesis Taylor Swift.

Still, Tay-Tay grabbed second place among the gals, earning a not-too shabby €71m over the past year (though she was only in ninth place in the overall list). 

Thirty-year-old Katy took to Instagram to express her happiness at being named the top earning female performer. 

"Before accepting the offer to be on the cover of Forbes, I was told that a lot of women have previously shied away from doing it. I wondered if it was because they thought socially it would look like they were flaunting or bragging or it wasn't a humble decision."

The Teenage Dream singer went on to explain that there is a difference between being cocky and being proud of what you have achieved: "Ladies, there is a difference between being humble and working hard to see the fruits of your labor blossom, and your dreams realized."

Finally, the ex-wife of comedian Russell Brand went on to tell all women out there that it's OK to be happy with what you have achieved. 

"Hopefully this cover can be an inspiration to women out there that it's okay to be proud of hard earned success and that there is no shame in being a boss. Also… don't think that I didn't celebrate this moment by going straight to Taco Bell and getting my crunch wrap supreme"

In the women's category, Katy came in ahead of Ellen DeGenerous (3rd), Beyonce (4th), Lady Gaga (5th) and Kim Kardashian (6th).

Katy has her mega-selling Prismatic World Tour, which saw her travel to 24 countries and perform 127 concerts, to thank for her huge fortune.
