Who Is Taylor Swift’s New Song About?

Oh, of course. Of course Taylor Swift‘s shitty new song would be about Jake Gyllenhaal. Who, if you’ll please remember, she dated two years ago for about a month. I can’t even believe this girl sometimes.

From Us Weekly via Celebitchy:

Taylor Swift is never, ever, ever getting back together with . . . Jake Gyllenhaal. Sources tell Hot Stuff the singer’s latest hit is influenced by her 2010 fling with the actor, 31.

“It’s definitely about Jake,” an insider says. In “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together,” she sings about an ex who comes back to say, “Baby, I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change.”

(Gyllenhaal flew to Nashville three weeks after their split to attempt a reunion.)

Swift has been dropping hints too: The song’s video features an actor who resembles Gyllenhaal, and in a promo clip for the September 6 MTV Video Music Awards, she jokes about the hit with host Kevin Hart, who pastes his own face on a photo of the then-couple.

Despite her past dramas, Swift, 22, is pushing forward with new love Conor Kennedy, 18. She’s even lining up promotion for her CD Red (out October 22) with the Deerfield Academy senior’s schedule. Adds the insider, “She’s working around his school holidays!”

There are a few other signs too: at the end of the video, Taylor’s boyfriend is wearing a blue vest, AND JAKE OWNS ONE TOO. Taylor also wears a gold bracelet in the video, and – you guessed it – Jake gave her one just like it. As if we needed more proof, you know that pivotal scene in the video where the guy gives Taylor his scarf? Jake did that too. That photo up at the very top? If you look closely, you can see that Taylor is wearing a striped scarf. And you guys. That’s Jake’s scarf.

Here’s that embarrassing music video for you to analyze, in case you missed it the first time around:

And here’s the VMA promo:

Yeah, I’ll buy it. Poor Jake Gyllenhaal.

  • All her songs sound the same, and it’s so unclassy the way she dates people to make material for her music. It also grates me that she’s my age and acts like a 17 year old… so it actually really suits that she’s dating Conor I guess… She has nice hair though lol

  • I think at this point anyone that dates her should know there is going to be a song written about him.
    this one is actually ok to me – at least she looks cute in the video

  • In the awesome scheme of things you actually secure an A for hard work. Where exactly you actually confused everybody was in the particulars. You know, as the maxim goes, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be more true right here. Having said that, allow me tell you just what exactly did give good results. The writing is certainly really powerful which is probably why I am making an effort in order to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, while I can easily notice the jumps in logic you make, I am not really sure of just how you appear to connect your ideas which inturn make the conclusion. For now I will yield to your issue but trust in the near future you actually connect the facts much better.
