Calvin Harris ‘is really taken’ with Taylor Swift, it’s been happening for weeks

Thursday night, Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris stepped out – together! – at a Kenny Chesney Concert. Taylor got on stage briefly to perform with Chesney, but she spent much of the concert in the audience, with Calvin. The above Twitter photo comes from some people creeping on Swifty and Calvin’s body language throughout the show, and there are many more photos – go here to see. At one point, Swifty was standing in front of Calvin and he had his arms wrapped around her waist. Other eyewitnesses said that Swifty and Calvin were “holding hands” and even “kissing” too.

All of this followed last week’s revelation that Calvin seemingly flew to Nashville to spend time with Swifty, and they even got photographed going into Whole Foods. So, are they happening? Um, YES. They are happening. I believed they were happening when I saw their matching outfits at Whole Foods, but the arms-around-the-waist thing plus the kissing thing? Yes. They’re totally happening. And I would say they’ve probably been happening for longer than people think. Remember, Swifty went to Vegas all of a sudden last month to see Calvin DJ at a club. And Calvin recently finished things with his girlfriend, so there could have been some overlap, and Swifty could have been the reason why Calvin broke up with his girlfriend. And for what it’s worth, E!’s sources say that they’re happening too.

Sounds like “getting snuggly” at the Kenny Chesney concert is just the tip of the iceberg for budding couple Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris. Just one day after the 24-year-old singer and the 31-year-old record producer were spotted looking cozy in Nashville, a source tells E! News that the two have actually been hanging out since late February when they first met at the 2015 Brit Awards.

What’s more? The insider reveals that the Scottish DJ is actually quite smitten with the superstar!

“He is taken with her. They connected properly at the Brits [Awards], and it’s been going on since then,” the source says, adding that the award ceremony “was when they really connected.”

“It’s been going on a few weeks,” the insider reveals. “They actually make a great couple. They are just getting to know each other and we’ll see what happens.”

Neither Swift nor Harris has confirmed the romance rumors. Speculation went into full swing earlier this week when the two were spotted together at Whole Foods in Nashville.

“He is such a good guy,” the insider says of Harris. “He’s serious but also very goofy at the same time. She really likes that combination. It’s exciting for both of them. It’s hard to meet someone in their business.”

[From E! News]

I wouldn’t have put Calvin down as a fan of butterscotch kisses, apple picking and cuddlefesting, but hey… why not? They’re both rich, they’re both single, and they’re both big deals in the music industry. I kind of hope Swifty “gets hers” and they both go into it with open eyes. I mean, her tour starts soon. This isn’t going to be a long-term romance. But it can be a hot, sweaty fling and they can stay friends (with benefits) afterwards.

Oh, and Calvin tried to throw people off the scent in an interview a few weeks ago, saying that “She looks lovely but she’s the opposite of my type.” Oh, Calvin. Pretty soon you’re going to be brushing Scottish fold kitties in between tea parties and decoupage.

    her brows are like my grandma used to do them

    • LaurenLauren says:

      Hahaha! You’re right. The thin brow thing is very much over. Ugh I hate seeing old pictures of me with eyebrows like that. Thicker brows are so much more flattering and bring out the eyes.

    • L says:

      Can we lay off the brows! I have thin high arch brows and not because I shape them that way! It’s just how they grow.. Or lack of growing for that matter. I am desperate for thicker brows and really concerned that I will have none when I age. I will be brow bald like my dad!😁 my friend does MicroStroking (brow tattooing) and next trip home I am there! They look natural, with fine hair like strokes .. Not colored in. End rant

      • zinjojo says:

        L, there are products that you can use to help your brows come back. As I’ve gotten older, my brows were thinning out so I started using SmartLash (there are others, but this one worked for me). It gives both lashes and brow growth a good kick start. After about three weeks, I really noticed a difference and my brows are quite thick again 🙂

      • Zigggy says:

        Castor oil is supposed to help brows & lashes grow too.

      • idontknowyouyoudontknowme says:

        Don’t worry, I seriously dont get the thick brow thing. Makes features too severe and masculine imo.. as for the making you look younger thing, well, I’ve never seen babies with Groucho eyebrows 🙂

      • lisa says:

        my brows are the same way. they dont grow. latisse etc makes the hairs you have grow longer but dont make new hairs. my face would definitely benefit from more brow. and to make it worse, i see how my mother’s are all almost gone, and she never tweezed once.

      • Tifygodess says:

        @idontknowyou… I agree. Some people take the bushy eyebrow thing too far as well. It’s like Ladies most people can tell when you draw on Bert and Ernie brows and it’s not cute. Why can’t we have a happy medium and everyone just rock the eyebrows they want. It seems lately no matter where I go people are obsessed with eyebrows and feel the need to comment and apparently everyone needs to be on trend with huge brows. Why is this even a thing ??? Not everyone looks good with huge brows

    • Amanda_M87 says:

      The trend right now seems to be towards thicker eyebrows, but who knows in a few years from now. That’s why I don’t want any permanent electrolysis on my brows.

  2. Kaley says:

    That green dress is awful on her. Her make-up and hair are terrible too.

    I hope when they break up he writes an album about her.

  3. Gabriella says:

    I keep thinking Diplo and Calvin Harris are the same person. I thought: why on Earth would she date the guy that trashed her bum? But then again, you know that’s not too far fetched when it comes to Swifitie.

    • Kara says:

      i mix them up, too. And as you say it would fit into her strategy, like she makes friends with people who trashed her.

    • claire says:

      haha. I was thinking the same thing. I only clicked on the article to figure out if they were the same people!

  4. Babadook says:

    But isnt she friends with Ellie Goulding? (Did Goulding date CH? I forget). Such drama.

    • Lama Bean says:

      I thought Goulding dated Skrillex. Hadn’t heard the Calvin Harris thing.

      The breakup songs that are going to come out of this are going to be the stuff of legends.

    • Imo says:

      Taylor is buds with Ed SheerAn who dated Ellie.

    • Sunny says:

      I think Ellie did date Calvin as well.

      I like Taylor and she seems to work hard, has a lot of creative control, and genuinely love her fans. But I always get the feeling that her girl power rah rah thing is bs and she is totally the one of your girlfriends who would date your ex. You know, kind of a hypocrite- you know she wouldn’t tolerate it if you did that to her but in her case when she violates the girl code it is a special case.

    • Dani says:

      Eliie did a few songs with him. They’re ‘mates’. She dated Skrillex then Ed Sheeran then cheated on him with Niall from 1D.

  5. olly says:

    I am actually rooting for them. He is old enough, not twee and somewhat rugged especially compared to her exes. Go Taylor!

  6. OSTONE says:

    I ship it. Even if it may be very vanilla waffer sex, I ship it.

    • Ameoba says:

      Same here. I want her to get some. She’ll be busy soon so go get it girrrrl. But I hope she doesn’t end up acting like a teenager when it ends.

  7. J says:

    Other reports have been saying that while he does like her, he can see how this is good for business.

    I don’t know I am not convinced she has matured as much as she wants people to think she has. And his break up with Rita Ora was mess too, I feel like this is going to end with an epic break up song battle.

    • olly says:

      If it ends messy, he is not going to end up top. Each breakup has spawned an album that has made her more powerful and successful. Even a break up with Jake Gyllenhaal, who I don’t believe is gay and who I like to believe is as charming as he seems, could have really emotionally destroyed a seemingly romantic 21 year old girl. She has my full respect for this.

      • We Are All Made of Stars says:

        Why can’t he wind up with some hits? She’s a crappy children’s pop singer, not God. The luster has worn off her in the past few years. Mayer is the one that she can’t let go of, and that was fairly serious (to her). If this goes on a similar trajectory, I could see her grinding her ax for all eternity while he throws her off like Ora and gets on with his life and career. Personally I’m just thrilled that my boy Hozier is out of the picture entirely.

      • Dani says:

        Calvin is the cattiest male artist. He wrote some amazing breakup songs about Rita Ora. This will be an amazing break up music wise – on both ends. He’s such a b(tch.

    • Lama Bean says:

      Ha! I just wrote the same thing re: the breakup songs. Stuff of legends. Not wishing ill will on them at all, but if it does happen, gonna be mad entertaining.

  8. Jayna says:

    I think he likes her, but Calvin isn’t adverse to the publicity this will get him. That’s not what Swifty needs. And I agree. that breakup with Rita Orr was a big mess.

    I think she needs to lay off the famous guys and fall in love with like a great musician from Nashville who plays on her studio albums or tours with her or something, someone talented but not famous, someone who can be traveling with her and understand her life. The girl tours a lot, and these type romances like with someone famous off doing their thing, never bode well for longevity. But Swifty seems to keep falling for famous guys, and we know how that ends.

    • Kara says:

      given that she writes songs about her exes and brings scrutiny in their lives it would be fairer if she sticks to famous guys who know how it is to be in the spotlight. plus i dont see Taylor as the kind of woman who could ever be happy with a man that makes less money and isnt at least somewhat famous.

      • We Are All Made of Stars says:

        Bingo! She’s an attention whore and she needs the validation of the good-looking, rich, suave, famous guy that she *gasp* never had when she was fifteen. It’s prom queen mentality and she’s halfway to thirty.

      • Imo says:

        Halfway? Bwahahaha!!

      • epiphany says:

        You couldn’t be much of a Swifty fan if you’re referring to her as a woman – she never likes to be reminded that she’s aged out of her marketing demographic! Never mind that she’s 25 years old (not 24, as stated in the article) in interview after interview she refers to herself as a “girl”, and the guys she dates as “boys”. Whether she’s truly emotionally stunted, or simply wants to keep relating to the 13 year olds who buy her music, I don’t know, but I do know she’d kicked you for publicly calling her a woman! (lol)

  9. mia girl says:

    Sorry, I’m not buying it.

    • OhDear says:

      Yeah, think it’s more PR/business than anything else.

    • Kiddo says:

      I don’t personally find him attractive, and all that, so it’s a big MEH, either way. Is this supposed to be some enormous ‘get’? Because I’m not getting it.

  10. Hello Catty says:

    She looks less “toothy” without her 70’s bangs. Like.
    Calvin seems a little shady to me. Idk why…

    • Christin says:

      I think he resembles Lee Harvey Oswald (especially through the eyes), so I immediately get a shady vibe, whether it’s justified or not.

      • Michelle says:

        @Christin – This comment made me LOL, Calvin definitely looks like Lee Harvey Oswald.

      • Christin says:

        Seriously, I am now seeing a little Ryan Gosling as well. Make it a cross between LHO and RG.

      • Tulip Garden says:

        @Christin,
        That was a very perceptive and unexpected comparison! Totally true too. I enjoyed it ’cause you just don’t hear LHO very often in gossipy conversation.

  11. Meggin says:

    At least hes not barely graduating HS lol. That green dress is awful

  12. Dash says:

    Ok but seriously, if they are dating this is her first real, adult, non-beard relationship. Despite all the boy craziness in the past none of the “boyfriends” lasted longer than a few weeks. If she has ever been in a proper long term relationship then she has done an excellent job of hiding it from the world.

  13. Cute couple. Good luck guys.

  14. Allie says:

    He said he would “swipe left” back in November, not a couple weeks ago. I find that kind of sketchy. Shes going on a massive tour in a month so I don’t see this working out. I can’t see Swifty giving hookups or casual flings a chance, she’s probably thinking they’re already in aserious relationship. I don’t like either of them so I hope this blows up and is the best breakup explosion ever.

  15. InvaderTak says:

    Meh.

  16. Franca says:

    Wasn’t she with Hozier a minute ago? I like Hozier better, Calvin seems like a douche. Plus, he was cuter before the make over.

    • We Are All Made of Stars says:

      No, she had her picture taken with 5,000 famous people like she always does while at the Grammys and he was one of them. She declared herself a fan and went to his concert last October, and they went to see Haim whom they are apparently both friends with around the time of the Grammys, and that was that. I mean imagine him putting up with her bull and have every move of his exploited on social media. He wouldn’t tolerate it for a second. The devil in me kinda wishes he would though since he really has the lyrical talent to serve it to her on a platter so she’d finally get what she had coming to her at last!

    • JMS says:

      Taylor friend-zoned Hozier right away. She wasn’t interested.

      • Gina says:

        Hozier has a girlfriend so more likely he friend zoned her. He’s friends with haim, I think they were just hanging out with mutual friends to be fair.

  17. nikkisixx says:

    I’ve heard rumors that Calvin is a major douche. Like, different girls in every city. I read on d-listed that he screenshots his bank account and sends it to his friends. Plus, he just recently broke up with his girlfriend so the timing seems suspicious. Take these rumors with a grain of salt, but considering how he looked earlier in his career, now he comes off as a tanned, muscular fameho.

    • Cali says:

      But he is SOOOO unattractive so the makeover just fixed the ego and body, not the face!

    • laura.e says:

      Haha I think in that pic, back in those days all he did was party and take lots of pills!
      Made much better music back then as well 😉

    • laura.e says:

      PS forgot to add – the girl in every city thing
      Is VERY common for DJ’s , rock stars etc
      It’s nothing new unfortunately

  18. MrsP says:

    This is a $$$ game for Calvin Harris.

    He’s a biz man.

    This is alll about $$$$ … being seen with her means an entirely new audience … $$$$

  19. INeedANap says:

    I’m still rooting for Swifty and Karlie Kloss 4eva.

  20. Gen says:

    I feel really old and/or ignorant right now. I have no idea who he is! Gonna have to consult Mr. Google.

  21. Christin says:

    I’m living under a rock as well. I’d never heard of him until photos surfaced of him with TS.

  22. Sue says:

    i’m one of the few at this site who is a taylor fan. i think she can do a lot better than a dude who would say “she’s lovely but not my type”. it’s insensitive and doesn’t need to be said on a public stage.

    he looks like chris martin to me.

    • the devils parsley says:

      I dig The Swift Unicorn too. She’s very smart about her business and a fantastic song writer. I made some stupid relationship decisions when I was young as well so I really can’t hate on her for that, and I find her tell all songs deliciously catty. I also feel like she’s super gracious under pressure (Kanye West situation). Shes far better than any dude that screen shots his bank account. If that’s true, he’s a douchebag of the finest order.

    • Misssy says:

      I’m not a fan, but I think she pretty and likable and I agree with you. She can do a lot better. They LOOK good together, but I don’t think he’s a good guy…
      I don’t think it was insensitive. He is right. She is NOT his type. She is too good for him. Come on, he dated Rita Ora.. Ugh.

  23. laura.e says:

    Sigh. Was only listening to Calvin last night.
    Merrymaking at My Place… great tune from 2008.
    What happened?

  24. word says:

    This will be epic. I kind of like these two together though it won’t last long. She will end up writing a song about him and he will write one about her. He’s bad at break ups (remember Rita Ora).

  25. Naddie says:

    I have a feeling about her. I seriously think she’d be much happier with another woman. I could say “have as much sex as you can while you’re young, girl”, but I think she does want to have a long relationship, I don’t see her as the type of person who feels happy with casual flings.
    And I don’t like him at all.

  26. mootwo says:

    i hope it’s PR or just the beginning get to know you stage that won’t get further than that, because I don’t think she needs someone who’s in the business. And i think he’s a douche because his comments make him sound like a user.

  27. shoochai says:

    YAY! Swifty got rid of her bangs!!! That is the best things about this post 😀

  28. Anna says:

    Calvin said that in November, not a few weeks ago. So I don’t think it had anything to do with trying to convince us that they weren’t together. Based on the interview it seems like he was serious when he said she wasn’t his type.

  29. Gina says:

    I don’t know if i buy them as a couple. They both have a history of dating other famous people in a way that has often seem to coincide with when they have an album or tour to sell.. The matching shirts seems to engineered, classic pr imo.
    By the way the interview where Calvin said she wasn’t his type wasn’t recent. It was made last year and I think he was telling the truth. His type has always been more exotic.

  30. Leah says:

    The most vanilla couple since Chris Martin and Gwyneth. Boring.
