Now that Taylor Swift and Harry Styles have broken up, they seem to be avoiding each other in every way possible. An insider from UsMagazine.com reveals that the British singer had “said something he shouldn’t have … This [breakup] is definitely going to be for good.” Sources said that the two celebrities kept their distance at the NRJ Awards in France, and carefully scheduled their red carpet appearances so they wouldn’t bump into one another.

Taylor Swift has been splashed across almost every magazine in the past few weeks, telling story after story about yet another failed relationship and her tendency to get over someone by getting “under” someone new. The twenty-something country crooner is beautiful and successful, but it seems she can’t break the three-month relationship cycle.
Perhaps it’s because she has a “broken picker,” or maybe it’s just that she’s 22 years old and has no idea what she really wants. Whatever the case, Swift is repeating the same mistakes in each and every relationship. Her romantic trysts are unable to move past the infant stage. With actors and boy-banders alike (even a Kennedy!), the songstress dives in head-first each time — and comes out like a drowned rat within a few months. …On the edge of your seat? Don’t miss the rest!
It was definitely a “rockin’” night for Taylor Swift and Harry Styles on New Year’s Eve. The swooning duo celebrated the evening in Time Square with an official kiss that was captured by a witness’ fuzzy photo, which has now gone viral. Swift, 23, was in New York City to perform “I Knew You Were Trouble” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” that Monday night on Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest. With millions of people watching that night, Swift and Styles’ New Year’s kiss was a romantic moment seen round the world.

Harry Styles better watch out for 90210 actor Trevor Donovan, as rumor has it that he has his eyes set on his rumored girlfriend Taylor Swift, according to UsMagazine.com. While Donovan admits that he has never officially met Swift, he greatly admires her talent. The Ripple of Hope Awards honored Swift which Donovan fully supported. “She’s a young, amazing, talented, beautiful young girl who’s a good role model for the young kids, as well. She’s out there and she’s creating a wide path for herself at 23 years old. It’s amazing,” gushed the actor who couldn’t stop talking about his crush. He hoped to cross paths with the singer that evening in order to get her phone number. He wanted to be able to add Swift to his list of famous celebrity friends on his speed dial.

Despite breaking up two years ago, Taylor Swift’s new song “All Too Well” reminisces about her romance with actor Jake Gyllenhaal, an insider reports to UsMagazine.com. Her latest album, Red, features the nostalgic track, and Swift declares it’s her most “adventurous album yet.” The Gyllenhaal ballad started out as a ten minute song, Swift said, but was filtered down to a digestible size. The pop-country songstress split from the well-bred Conor Kennedy in October, and has since been hanging out with One Direction’s Harry Styles.

Taylor Swift may have a mob of angry One Directioner fans after her since she is rumored to be dating group member Harry Styles, according to People. Swift just recently split from Conor Kennedy, though she seems to be moving on rather quickly. While Swift was working on The X Factor, Styles was reportedly right there to support his leading lady. Mario Lopez, the show’s host, revealed that Styles told him he was there for Swift at the rehearsal, even seeing the two of them walk hand in hand later on. In an interview with One Direction, fellow group member Niall Horan assured the interviewer he would not date Taylor Swift after shooting Styles a quick look. Only time will tell how long this couple will last.

Taylor Swift recently opened up during a Rolling Stone interview in which she assured everyone that she did not kidnap her boyfriend, Conor Kennedy, according to People. Via the internet, there have been rumors circulating that the singer whisked away her boyfriend who is still in high school amidst a private jet. “You can’t kidnap a grown man,” exclaimed Swift, explaining that stories as such are exactly the reason as to why she does not investigate tabloid and rumor stories. Another story was fabricated claiming that Swift crashed a private Kennedy wedding, stealing her beau but this time from a family function.

Taylor Swift’s 2010 hit “Dear John” hints at a broken heart from her 2009 relationship with 34-year-old singer John Mayer, according to UsMagazine.com. Mayer told Rolling Stone that the song made him feel terrible and that it was undeserved. “How presumptuous!” Swift responded in November’s Glamour magazine. “I never disclose who my songs are about.” However the age gap between the former couple makes some of the song’s lyrics suspiciously fitting: “It was wrong/ Don’t you think 19’s too young/ To be played/ By your dark, twisted games/ When I loved you so.” Swift said she never read Mayer’s comments on the song because she’s too fragile for media gossip, but admits that her music follows her personal life. “I feel like you can share enough about your life in your music to let people know what you’re going through,” Swift said. For the past two months, the pop-country singer has been dating Connor Kennedy, 18, of the famous Democratic family.

Superstar Taylor Swift and boyfriend Conor Kennedy hadn’t been dating long when he took her to a family wedding in August, despite reported requests that she not go because some worried Taylor’s presence would take away from the bride’s attention.
That’s a problem most of us don’t have to worry about, but it does raise the question: When is it a good time to meet your new flame’s family? And is it a good idea to attend a big family event early in a relationship?

A new Taylor Swift fling can only mean one thing; a new song! But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Swift and her new beau Conor Kennedy have only been dating for a month. The couple has been none-too-shy to show the world how they feel about each other while vacationing in Hyannis Port, Mass.UsMagazine.com reports that on Monday, Kennedy was spotted with an arm around his famous girlfriend while kissing the side of her head. The couple has also been photographed out and about in their bathing suits enjoying their vacation time together. From her upscale outfits to family approval, it seems like Swift already fits in with the Kennedy’s. When Kennedy’s grandmother Ethel was asked if she could see Swift becoming a Kennedy one day she replied, “We should be so lucky!”

With fame comes glamour and wealth. These are things everyone wants, but they can also take a toll on a relationship. With a celebrity’s busy schedule and a seemingly bottomless bank account, it’s hard to make time and decisions for things other than themselves. The fact of the matter is that there’s only so much a relationship can take before the best decision is to just call it quits. Here are some of the issues that can ultimately break up a celebrity couple:

Famously Christian NFL quarterback, Tim Tebow, is still single, as dating not fitting into his hectic lifestyle. Regardless of rumors that he had begun dating Taylor Swift and Glee star, Dianna Agron, his main focus has remained his recent trade to the New York Jets. On top of his exciting switch, Tebow is focusing on his foundation for children in need, telling People, “To be able to bring people together to raise money to help kids, and make a difference in their lives, that’s what it’s all about.” Maybe this athletic Christian will soon be able to find someone who can help him with his foundation, all the while cheering him on as a Jet.

In recent years, the divorce rate in America has hovered around 50 percent, and in Hollywood, this statistic appears to be closer to 70 percent.
For some celebrity couples, rushing into a serious relationship or even marriage is no big deal; they can always break up or file for an annulment or divorce, knowing that their family, friends and fans will stand behind them. They are not held accountable by their vows, viewing any “easy way out” as an acceptable solution.
But why do so many Tinseltown twosomes approach romance with such a wavering attitude, in such fleeting terms? Here are just a few reasons why some celebrity relationships change with the seasons:

If the highly publicized dinner date with singer Taylor Swift comes to fruition as merely a friendship, Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow may have 25 hopeful women vying to win his heart instead. The NFL star has been approached to be the next Bachelor, host Chris Harrison revealed on Access Hollywood Live Monday, according to People. Although Harrison apparently joked stating Tebow has already agreed to do the gig, Tebow hasn’t confirmed whether or not he will sign up to pass out roses instead of passing pigskins.
How do you pick and choose a mate when there are a lot of options?
It looks like Taylor Swift has a new man on her arm. The country singer, 22, is taking leukemia patient Kevin McGuire, 18, to the ACM Awards to make up for missing his senior prom, reports RadarOnline. “Kevin I’m so sorry but I won’t be able to make it to your prom,” Swift posted on Facebook. “But I was wondering, the ACM Awards are coming up. Would you be my date?” McGuire, who was diagnosed with leukemia at 13, invited Swift to his senior prom after prompting from his sister. “I tried to think of a kind person who would make me feel OK. And laugh,” said McGuire. “A person who would look amazing, and the one person who would make me feel special for one night. It was her.”

When Taylor Swift and Reese Witherspoon chatted at the Academy of Country Music Awards this past Sunday, they found they had at least one thing in common: Jake Gyllenhaal. But UsMagazine.comreports the 30-year-old actor was nowhere to be found when his two ex-girlfriends met and posed for pictures at the show. Swift, 21, who won the Entertainer of the Year Award, and newly married Witherspoon, 35, showed no hostility toward each other during the event.

Ex-lovers Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal were seen having a serious conversation at an Oscars after party, according to Digital Spy. A source told People that the duo was seen at the Vanity Fair after party. “It seemed a bit more serious – it certainly wasn’t a ‘Hi, how are you?’ talk,” the source said. “It seemed like they were catching up, sorting something out.” Gyllenhaal left shortly after the talk while Swift stayed and partied with a few friends. The former duo broke things off in January.

When someone leaves us broken-hearted, our natural reaction is to find love again as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, healing a broken heart takes time and patience. It’s necessary to spend some time alone so you can build your own strength and move on to a happier, healthier relationship in the future.
Like us, many celebrities move from one relationship to the next, hoping that this will ease their pain and help make the transition easier. Eva Longoria started dating Penelope Cruz’s brother Eduardo shortly after her split with Tony Parker. Jake Gyllenhaal quickly started dating after breaking up with Reese Witherspoon, leaving a trail of girlfriends behind including Taylor Swift, Carey Mulligan and Jennifer Aniston. While romance creates a sense of happiness and excitement for a brief time, eventually old pain can start to resurface.

Taylor Swift’s breakup with actor Jake Gyllenhaal has not had any lasting effects on the country crooner, reports UsMagazine.com. Swift is heading out on a worldwide tour for her new album Speak Now and is excited for the opportunity. “I can’t wait!” revealed Swift on a Nashville radio station. “Getting back on the road is something I have been looking forward to for a really long time.” Gyllenhaal, 30, broke up with Swift, 21, last month. Since the breakup, the two have briefly reunited for a dinner at Nashville restaurant Bound’ry. Though Swift was “thrown” by the date, Gyllenhaal wished “to see if there was anything still between them, if they could recapture the magic,” revealed a source. “Sadly, it wasn’t there.”
