7 Strange Details About Taylor Swift And Karlie Kloss' Friendship, Including Whether Or Not They're Still Friends
Did they really get caught making out?
INSTAGRAM Taylor Swift is known for her ever-growing list of go-to breakup songs, but one person that she’s managed to have a healthy relationship with for years is her friend, supermodel Karlie Kloss. The two first met five years ago, and although rumors of a feud between the two stars have swirled on multiple occasions, they’ve shut down the critics and proven that their friendship is still going strong. Read on to find out more about the ups and downs of Kloss’ and Swift’s friendship over the years!
1. Their friendship started with an interview.
It may be hard to imagine a time before Swift and Kloss were best friends, but their friendship actually began when Swift had an interview with Vogue back in early 2012. During her interview, Swift saw a photo of Kloss and said: “I love Karlie Kloss […] I want to bake cookies with her!”
Kloss, reading the interview and seeing Taylor on the magazine’s cover, responded to Swift’s request on Twitter. “Hey @taylorswift13 love the @voguemagazine cover! Your kitchen or mine?” she said in the post.
2. They first met in person at a Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show.
Almost two years after their cookie-baking banter, the two stars actually met in person during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show in December 2013. According to Teen Vogue, Kloss was featured in the fashion show while Swift was a musical guest. At the time, Kloss posted a picture on Twitter calling her time on stage with Taylor Swift her “Favorite #VSFashionShow moment.”
3. Did Swift and Kloss kiss at a concert?
When Kloss and Swift were spotted together at a concert in late 2014, rumors swirled that they were making out. TMZ reported in a segment of their show that the two were “totally making out,” using pictures and video from the event as evidence.
“Taylor Swift [was] hangin out at a concert. She was with her best friend Karlie Kloss, and this person tweeted a couple photos of them. It appears that they’re kissing,” said one TMZ reporter in the segment, though others were quick to doubt that and believed they were just whispering to one another in the loud concert hall.
Still, the TMZ announcer dubbed the moment a “full-blown big time make out for realsies.”
4. Kloss has hung out with some of Swift’s nemeses.
Back in October 2016, Kloss attended a Los Angeles Lakers game with friend and fellow model, Kendall Jenner. According to Entertainment Tonight, this outing “[raised] some eyebrows given Swift’s feud with Jenner’s sister, Kim Kardashian West,” and Kanye West.
And in February of this year, Kloss had dinner with Katy Perry, who has often been described as Taylor Swift’s nemesis. Swift’s fans fired back at Kloss on Instagram, flooding it with rat emojis.
5. Swift left Kloss out of her “Look What You Made Me Do” music video.
In between these two hangouts came Swift’s music video for her single “Look What You Made Me Do,” released in August 2017. In the video, Swift wears a t-shirt filled with names of the various friends she counts among her “squad,” and Kloss’ name appeared not to make the cut.
The “Junior Jewels” shirt features the names of many of Swift’s celebrity friends, including Selena Gomez, Gigi Hadid, Lena Dunham, Ed Sheeran, and Ryan Reynolds.
6. In a 2018 interview, Kloss didn’t mention Swift as one of her best friends.
According to Entertainment Tonight, Kloss failed to mention swift as one of her closest friends in her recent interview with Porter Magazine.
“A couple have become some of the most important relationships in my life, in particular, those I’ve been in the trenches with, such as Jourdan Dunn, Joan Smalls, Toni Garrn and Lily Aldridge,” she said during the interview in April 2018. “We started as girls and we’ve grown up together, and I know if I need anything, I can call them up and they will be there for me, just like my friends from kindergarten.”
7. Are Swift and Kloss still friends?
Despite various rumors that the two have had a falling out, recent developments in this friendship prove that it is still going strong. In an interview with The New York Times last March, Kloss shut down the rumors that she and Swift are no longer close, saying “Don’t believe everything you read” and revealing that she still talks to Swift on a regular basis.
Kloss dispelled the rumors even further earlier in August 2018 when she posted a picture from backstage at Swift’s Reputation Tour stop in Nashville. “No one puts on a show like @taylorswift,” Kloss wrote in the post. “#ReputationTour Nashville was out of this world, I am SO proud of you.”
