Well, this is an interesting turn of events! Us Weekly claims that Conor Kennedy (18) and Taylor Swift (22) are OVER. Conor, a junior at Deerfield Prep School, was having issues with finding time to spend with his superstar girlfriend. Us Weekly doesn’t say who split with whom, or who was the one to say, “Maybe we should take a break or something.” But I’m guessing that it was Conor? Because Swifty was no longer available to sign him out of school to have sex with him at a quaint bed & breakfast.
Let the songwriting begin. After an intense couple months of dating, Taylor Swift and Conor Kennedy have broken up, a close friend of the country singer confirms exclusively to Us Weekly.
“They quietly parted ways a while ago,” the friend explains of the “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” crooner, 22, and the high school senior, 18. “It was just a distance thing. No hard feelings. They’re fine.”
First spotted with the six-time Grammy winner at the Kennedy family compound in Hyannisport, MA in July, Conor is the son of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and the late Mary Kennedy. But despite Swift’s speedy summertime bond with her new man and his brood, the romance had to take a backseat to Swift’s work duties. (Her new album, Red, was just released this week with record-breaking sales and widespread critical acclaim.)
“It’s been over a month since they’ve even seen each other,” the friend explains. “With her promotion for Red, she has no time off until the end of the year.”
Swift’s other exes include Jake Gyllenhaal, Joe Jonas, Taylor Lautner and Cory Monteith.
True, they probably haven’t seen each other in a month, but just a few weeks ago, HIS relatives were talking up Swifty and the relationship, and it sounded like Conor and Taylor were still together. So what happened since then? OMG. I just realized something. If they haven’t “seen” each other in a month, that means that they broke up OVER THE PHONE. Which is what ALWAYS happens to Swifty! Joe Jonas dumped her over the phone, as did Jake Gyllenhaal. And now Conor. This is so epic. That being said… I wouldn’t put it past them to get back together in a month or so. And then he’ll dump her over the phone again. I DO see a Kennedy Christmas in the works for Swifty!
Song title ideas… Anything involving “Camelot” and anything that rhymes with “Hyannis Port”. References to curly hair and “princes” (because Conor is a Kennedy prince).

I would have given them at least another 60 days before a split.
Oh well, I sense a new song coming on….
She doesn’t need much time to know all these guys. Doesn’t she? She seems to be obsessive-compulsive about men and relationships. She needs help.
You know what though? This is exactly how people get very, very cynical at a young age. She’ll be a ball-chopper within the next 5 years as she sees her current jump-in-with-both-feet-right-away tack is never, ever, ever going to work.
Ahhh, too bad. And Michael Skakel just lost his bid for parole, too. Maybe some other evil Kennedy spawn are still roaming free.
I know I’m being silly but that last photo of shifty with the red microphone gave me such a case of the giggles.. Kaiser you bad girl!
*shitler* me too!
OH CHRIST!!!
Right. Everyone, in the bunker, single file. You can take two personal objects each with you.
We will have an underground tunnel connecting us to a soundproof safe house with a fully stocked kitchen and fitted bathroom Hogwarts stylee. For one night only we will also have a live feed of Skyfall projected onto the bunker wall and popcorn will be provided.
Earplugs and decent CD’s will be provided at the expense of MLASR (music lovers against sparky rainbows) and may we please request that you stay calm, despite every fibre of your being saying otherwise.
Ladies and gentlemen … Godspeed.
LMAO!
Brilliant
OMG LOL
I’m sorry. Are you going all Falling Skies on us? Because I am LOL right now.
(Cowers behind Amelia) Lordy, it’s going to get ugly!
Think I just peed myself laughing…*snort*. Well done, Amelia…well done. 😀
OMG!!! Comment. Of. The. Year!!!
I am CRYING I’m laughing so hard!!!!!! hahahahahahahaha best comment EVER!!!!
and might i just say that the “award” Taylor receives from the Kennedys in November will be super awkward now.
LOL.
But seriously the fallout from this is gonna be brutal.
Soundproof safe house…I’m there but I still want ear plugs!
WAIT! I must go back for my cat. Please don’t seal the doors yet…
Is a spouse a personal object, she asks while trying to decide between him, the dog and her Kindle . . . .
Kudos Amelia…you win the post of the week! Maybe Frankenstorm will wipe Swifty’s new digs out to sea and Connor will be saved the horror of one of her nursery rhymes spewed to bad guitar music. Her focus can then be on the lyrics to “My Mansion Was Swept Out to Sea Now He Ain’t Gotta Flee”.
Funny
She better watch out though, the Kennedys don’t mess around when it comes to protecting the family “honour”
Also CB the pic with the red mike, Bravo.
Amelia that was surreal =D
FOR REALS! I’ve got the turkey-jerky, the kids, the hairy kids, the h2o, the Wild Turkey, and the foil (for our hats, DUH!). Everybody head to the bunker!!! (I brought the cat food. Gourmet, BTW. The cat-sand’s on someone else!)
Amelia, I bow to your awesomeness. Well done, madame. WELL. F*CKING. DONE.
Cheers, Bellaluna 🙂
Right. *jangles keys*
Everyone in. To clarify we have plenty of space for furry kids and a fully stocked pet kitchen for nearly every type of animal. But could you leave any big cats, unicorns or griffins *outside* of the entrance, please. I know you love them, but they’re tough little things and we need to distract Swifty somehow.
And if significant others have a degree of culinary skill, they don’t count as personal items.
Well then. Time for a bit of blitz spirit!
*always look on the briiight side of life…*
Yeah just saw this and made a beeline over here….”Camelot Lost”, the new single by Swifty.
I think you may have a second career in nashville as a manager!
Ha, YES! With the lyrics:
“I thought one day I might become an American princess.
But, now I only catch glances of you from a distance.”
“And, my, how things can change in an instant,
From that hot summer’s day
In front of Friendly’s Cafe
Where you asked my name
We talked about your fear of spiders
And about your ex girlfriend, your family didn’t like her
I showed you the world,
and twirled your beautiful curls
around my fingers
Yes, your scent on me still lingers.
I guess checking you out of recess
wasn’t enough to become Camelot’s Princess”
+100000000000
Pricesless!!!!
brin, I read this as “camel-toe lost.” Am I the only one?
Taylor Swift: forever alone. Maybe one day she’s find her Justin Theroux.
Good one.
Meow! Good one x 2
LOL! 😀
ouch.
All I can see is Taylor Swift with dollar signs in her eyes after this break up.
Ha! Pretty much. I love her, but I’m totally on to her game. Her love life always picks up when she’s got an album coming out.
I predict that Taylor will Swiftly (hee) find another Hollywood gay boyfriend to replace him.
yea…well this last one wasn’t gay…but she’ll be back to bearding in one-two-three…
Listen to me she needs all these $$$ to buy estates next to her future-ex boyfriends. Give her few years and she will get more land than Ted Turner.
There are no words.
LOL, he’s 18. Prepare to be songed, you son of a bitch!
nail on the head. awesomesauce.
Awesome
Ahaha, I love the phrasing of that.
I ACTUALLY LOL’ed at that. Nice.
“Prepare to be songed” I am in for-real tears right now. I cannot breathe!
Tip of the hat, Lady (or Sir), because that is SERIOUSLY FUNNY!!!! (My family members are like “Do you wanna make the call, or should I?”)
Didn’t she just buy a house on the beach by him as well? And then she dedicated that song to him in her liner notes…oh, this girl is a mess.
Someone cheesy would be great with her. Kellan Lutz, I think.
He’s too busy inventing Flubber in his garage.
hahaha, I can´t.
I loved that movie as a kid.
Maybe he will create a new Flubber beard for himself?
I have just realized that the one thing that I need to make my life complete is a Swifty/Kellan Lutz hookup.
Yeah, Swifty/Lutzy has a nice ring to it.
LOL!! You guys are on fire today!!
Kifty? No…
Swutz? No…
Taylutz? Nah…
SLUTZY
HAHAHAHA
On a beautiful crystal clear day in spring when you can hear babies laughing and children playing outside,when she is all but forgotten, it will be revealed that she is actually a man who had a sex change and who is now a lesbian–cat-loving–bondage-fetishist–sex freak who loves to f*ck guys with a strap-on and is bald underneath that dry powdered wig.
Couldn’t she get his parents to sign an excuse slip to get him out of school to visit her? LOL
the HORROR! her pictures have already been ripped down from inside his locker..
I find myself antiquing when I think of you.. this will make it into her next song..
She was so obsessed with the family that I’m guessing she tries to rhyme with their name…so maybe a song titled “Remedy”
1st draft of the chorus:
Now I know the pain of the girls before
Who loved these men as wives or whores
The curse was not on this Kennedy
I was the cursed…I need a heartbreak remedy
(to the tune of We are Never Ever..)
Over my shoulder I threw the salt shaker,
And then we did it when we bought a hundred year old butter maker,
But still that didn’t stop you from making a break-er,
But I-eee, am really, really, really … Effin crazy.
I-eee, am really, really, really, effin crazy.
I was all lets gets married, live a life, a tale of fairy.
I needed some indie cred, thought you’d help, your mama’s dead.
Curly headed, Prince of Porty, thanks a lot.
-now I’ve lost my chance at Camelot
Now I’ve lost my chance at Camelot
You guys need to be country music writers.
OMFG!! I have a stomach ache from laughing so much!!
You guys are making my day!! 😉
Somewhere, Joni Mitchell is seething with jealous rage. “Why didn’t I write that?” she shrieks, in her vintage Miss Havisham dress. WHYYYY???”
Buckle up, people. It’s all about to hit the fan now.
ok i’m gonna be quite honest..he’s creepy looking and not attractive at all.
I think he’s a cute 18 year old boy. If I were a teenager I’d be into him. He’s going to be a handsome man.
Obviously she’s positioning herself to take up with Tom Cruise. LOL
Oh. My. God. So perfect. Somebody needs to set that up!!
Not such a crazy idea:
Not only were all 3 of TC’s wives divorced at 33, but Mimi Rogers was born 1956, Nicole Kidman in 1967 & Katie Holmes in 1978.
Each wife was 11 years’ younger than the previous, so TC will be looking for someone born in 1989.
Taylor Swift is your girl!!
Wow those are some creepy TC marriage/divorce facts. Not sure if Swift is ready for that level of crazy.
I´d say she´s already on a pretty high level of cray cray herself.
Did she give his ID bracelet back?
I was thinking letterman jacket?
How sad. He would not have even had a senior ring for her yet
One boiled rabbit, coming up.
Eh, who wants to break up in person anyway? Yikes, I’ll take a phone break-up over a dramatic scene any day. Thank goodness on this one, it was really creeping me out. I mean, four years is a small age difference, but with the difference in life experience between these two, it seems more like she’s about 20 years older. And since he’s barely legal, well….ugh.
Amen to this!!!!
My favorite is when people think it’s a great idea to break up over dinner in public, in a restaurant. Food involved. Arena for throwing napkin, food and/or barf across table at ex and storming out, causing scene. Stupid idea.
Four years at, say, 28 and 32 is a small age difference. Four years when one of the participants is in high school, however, is huge. I can maybe see dating someone who was 18 when I was 22 if he had been declared an independent minor or started college at 14 I guess, maybe, but someone who was in high school? A JUNIOR? I had enough problems dating a high school senior when I was a freshman in college, and he was only 4 months younger than me.
And by the way, why is Conor not a senior? Anyone know? Did he start school late, does this prep school have an extra year, did he have to take time off after his mom died?
Amen!
They broke up because Taylor couldn’t go
To his Junior prom.
whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat??
I knew she would smother and weird him out.
soooo she is still gonna spy on him w/the house being so close huh??
I’d never come home again, if I were this lil chap!
I dont mind her bubblegum music but there is something seriously wrong with this girl
Yep, this whole Kennedy obsession has seriously creeped me out.
Kellie, that was just great 😀
I had always thought she was freakin’ crazy for a loooong time lol
She’s going to have to buy a new Lisa Frank unicorn Trapper Keeper because her old one with “Mrs. Taylor Kennedy” written with puffy hearts is going in the trash.
She’s playing MASH as we speak, trying to figure out who she’ll end up with.
L.M.A.O.! no you did NOT take it back to lisa frank! although this scenario sounds ENTIRELY like something taylor would do (or write a song about doing) creepily enough.
Haha I <3 it XD
Although I think even Lisa Frank might be a little too grown up for her. Better stick with Dora or maybe Strawberry Shortcake lol
shocking. the high school relationship between a boy in high school and a grown woman (who thinks she’s in high school) only lasted a couple of months. no one saw THIS coming.
*sings in Taylor Swift’s voice* Connor Kennedy is the latest reason of the tear drops on my guitar…
She will never diss him in a song, because she wants the Kennedys to like her still. Plus, let’s face it, dissing a junior in high school in a song about breaking her heart, leading her on, being phoney, cheating on her with the junior varsity cheerleader, on and on, makes her look like an idiot. He’s a junior in high school. What did she expect?
She will never openly diss him, but she will still diss him. Like she does/did with every other guy. And then Yahoo will come up with the breakdown of the hidden capital letters in the lyrics and we’ll be able to piece it together ourselves without her pointing a finger.
…I only know this because I read it today
@Dani….I also agree w/what you said, as well! She’s too damn mean & vindictive to NOT get a jab in….even if it’s a “passive jab.” That’s just how this bitch rolls. She sickens me.
@Jayna…that’s what I was thinking. I kept reading each blog waiting to read someone who already “wrote” what I’m thinking…and I ran into you…imagine that!
But yeah, anyway…I agree w/you…she’d look like a f#%king really, REALLY mean person. She had absolutely no business dating that jailbait….she’s effed up in my book. Cannot stand her.
I agree….she wants to kiss the ass of anyone w/the last name of Kennedy. And…..it looks like she’s still buying that house. Also, remember, the Kennedy’s are “legal-eagles,” they all probably put her on notice….write a song about our boy…see you in court. I dunno….just some thoughts.
guys are gonna start dating and dumping her just so they can get their very own song.
It’d suit her right. Wish someone would really rake her over the coals in a song.
LOL, I love Swify and her antics but the song “Dear John” comes to mind about how she was too young to be messed with…I’m thinking this Connor kid was too young to be messed with…
And extremely vulnerable. His mother passed away not too long ago. He was probably happy to have a beautiful superstar help him cope with his loss. But he probably didn’t take her that seriously.
Total theory: yes his relatives were talking her up, but what if they weren’t happy at all? If they figure there was a bit of teen rebellion on his part, what better way to end it then having no reaction at all? If they spoke out against her it’s Romeo and Juliet; instead they are like “What? Don’t be silly, we love your older girlfriend dear. Invite her to dinner!”. Not quite as “forbidden” a love affair anymore.
Truth in what you say.
Interestingly, my mother’s theory was: With all the stress and drama from his mother killing herself, his family was probably HAPPY that he (and his siblings) had such a major distraction in their lives. She probably brought a lot of excitement…
Your momma is smart! That’s very plausible.
I was actually thinking that too. All that praise of his girlfriend by his family, talking about what a marvelous young woman she was, how happy they were she was around, how they’d like to see her there forever and ever and ever…
I think that would give most 18-year olds pause. Forever and ever with someone grandma thinks is great? And this is a Kennedy boy. Smart move on the family’s part.
Wonder if the ink is dry on the house contracts?
I’m starting to feel bad for her, I think she could use some time without chasing a boyfriend, and to grow up a bit.
They hadn’t seen each other in a month, when he said he needed space ;)Sorry, I couldn’t resist!
That’s priceless.
…what? She already has the song for this “we are never ever getting back together. Ever”.
“I hate you I love you” etc etc. It’s all there.
Taylor’s Hyannis Port mansion will have a telescope pointed at the Kennedy’s place pronto.
B!TCH I just got your stupid music out of my head
and now –
Don’t blame it on me boy, don’t blame it on me,
Don’t blame it on me boy, twas a Kennedy
Who remembers that item in people (I knew the romance was gonna end) when it said how Conor wanted her to perform at Deerfield. The quote was “people want her to sing”. Yeah, right away – this world famous singer is going to some HS to sing for the kids for free.
Puleeze.
OMG!!
*insert dyinglaughing .gif here*
Taylor’s problem is Taylor
You think she has the maturity to refrain from writing a song about a teenager who lost his mother to suicide just weeks before she started boning him then playing a coy guess who it is game with the press….NAH
Hey @mln76! My 1st thought was that she won’t write a song about this Kennedy jailbait because she wants to remain in good graces w/”Camelot people.”
I PROMISE YOU, if she does not write a song about him, it WON’T BE due to any consideration about his youth, recent death of his mother….none of that….methinks it’ll be because she’s kissing Kennedy asses….LOL…I really think that!
Taylor is WAY too narcissistic/self-centered to even think about this guy’s youth and tragedy. It’s all about her wants/needs.
I wonder if she feels kind of like J.Lo now…when she put Ben Affleck in one of her music videos and then they broke up. Because now her brand new album is all about wanting to “hang out with Conor for the rest of her life” (in Stay Stay Stay) anddddd they’re already done on day 3 of the album release.
Cory Monteith? When?
Great comments all and interesting take on it MIA 4s – maybe he’s just allergic to plushy pony toys and would rather play with his Lego’s while she’s stuck in her Easy Bake Oven world.
BTW, does US weekly have 10 yr. olds writing their reviews – Widespread critical acclaim. That is a phrase you use for Miles Davis etc. not vapid bubblegum pop that’s so contrived you collapse from sugar shock.
Min76 thats a good point – it’s shows she’s all about the dollar beneath the twinkly winkly facade.
So what about her mansion in Hyannis Port?
Let’s not all get too worked up – he just flunked Calculus so he is not allowed to play basketball or with Taylor. As soon as he brings those sagging grades up, they can canoodle under the incredibly shiny cherry tree.
Patrick Schwarzenegger better watch out, he’s another elegible Kennedy.
Clearly the Kennedy boy was too old for Taylor. I hear she now has her sights set for Maddox Jolie-Pitt. Or is it Pax?
LMAO! and if poor taylor has to write a break up song about either one of those dashing jolie-pitt boys, it’s going to be inspired by the heartbreaking school yard ballads: “old mcdonald”, “the wheels on the bus”, and “three blind mice”.
Dying mln89. This whole thread has me dying with laughter.
Hahahaha! Brangelina—lock up your sons!
After all, she has to appear “youthful”, and at the decrepit old age of 22, how else can she manage it?
That was just thee best comment ever lol
So, since she has ‘never ever’ moved into that house by Ethel’s, she will just sell it. She won’t be going there! Unless it’s in the summer, to catch another Kennedy on vaca. Oh, how awkward…no,she will sell. Whats poor Ethel gonna do now? LOL…who ever thought this would last? Not me, Not never, ever!
Can you imagine the chaos @ excitement at Ye Olde Cape Cod Realty this morning?
FOR SALE-House formerly owned by Taylor Swift $50,000,000.00 Across from Ethel Kennedy…so make that $45,000,000.00…although she never actually lived there, I HEARD that she made it with that Kennedy kid, right there…!” Points to rug in front of fireplace….”Ummm..can you prove it? Do you have pictures?”
Speaking of real estate, Connor’s mom’s house just sold. I’d post a link but my computer is acting up at the moment. It’s in the daily mail.
This will be a good lesson for her-don’t buy a house across the street from your boyfriend’s family (particularly if you’ve only been dating for a couple of months!). That was a really impulsive move.
Who cares….enough with this chick. Her fake cutesy country girl act is at the end of the line isn’t it? Who buys this music. This chick can’t sing her way out of a paper bag yet people keep buying.
I agree whole heartedly with you. I’ve been over this fake bitch’s act for an eternity.
I don’t understand why people think she’s just the most amazing human being to walk planet Earth lol
Young girls buy her music as my coworkers pointed out to me yesterday they are fans. I cringed and remembered they are 18-19 years old. God I miss 90s music, so glad that was my coming of age era. Today’s music is awful
omg her list of ‘exes’ [apart from this connor kid and i emphasizse kid]-can you say beard, anyone? jake g, taylor lautner, joe jonas! i often wonder about mayer, as well in that regard-and he and perry, regardless are def. a PR couple for sure….anytime that high profile hotel is involved-i suspect PR…
All you posters are on a roll! Laughing myself silly reading them all! Thanks – I needed that!
Brace yourselves,I hear a”punishsong” coming…
I don’t know when I have ever seen such brilliance on the Interwebs. And women aren’t funny?
Take that, Websites. You can all close up shop now. It has been done to *perfection.*
+1 these posts have me rolling
I have always found something very off about her. Not in a good way. It is just a vibe I get.
It’s never over. Never.
Ha! Good one.
Best. Post. Ever!
You ladies are too much! I am laughing until crying, :).
Conor, you dodged a bullet. No song will be written about you. Well played, well played.
Who didn’t see this coming? Swifty was getting too much negative press with this guy; that’s why she dropped him.
I honestly think “The Kennedy’s” were behind the scenes of this breakup. There was no way they were ever going to turn her loose on him.
I’m positive Conor brokeup with Taylor. Anyone so obsessed with a family that they bought a house next door clearly is going to hang on for dear life. Also is Coner a junior or senior? I’ve only seen him called a senior recently. Eventhough he’s 18 it’s creepy that she was in a relationship with somebody who still has 2 years of highschool left.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the album is re-released with songs about Conor in time for Christmas. I think that happened with Joe Jonas.
Now Taylor Swift should date Tom Cruise – they would be well matched and the songs would be entertaining.
Tom tom oh won’t you come home
so I won’t have to sit here all alone
instead I’m waitin here by the phone
while your out makin a movie
and I’m not going to lend you my red lipstick
so don’t you even think about asking for it
and I’m not going to ask to borrow your lifts
and I’ll write the secrets of scientology
And I’m gonna throw out all your Celine Dion
because from now on I’m your babe, yeah I’m the one
and I’m gonna demand that you buy me a truck load of bubble gum
then we can get papped at the dentist yeah
And don’t compare me to Katie or Nicole
cause then it will prove that your a big fat troll
and don’t you ask about John Mayer either
and for Christmas I want to go trick or treating
Mitch.. you should seriously consider satire lyricist as a career, you have major talent 😀
this had me laughing my ass off
Maybe he dumped her after he found out that she had made a play for his cousin before hooking up with him. So he hit it and quit it. She deserves this for being such a biyatch.
He’s so cute. He reminds me of John John. Doesn’t she realize that women and Kennedy never include a happy ending?
Kate Gosselin, Taylor Swift and Jen Aniston are 3 of a kind.
My goodness, he has pimples, no facial hair and still looks like a child. I can’t imagine what she was thinking!
