The strongest proof and evidence that Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss dated

When I reach the pearly gates of heaven (here’s hoping) and get to ask God my one question, you can bet your ass it will be 100% centered around Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss’s relationship.

I don’t know what it was about their friendship (well, “friendship” but I’ll get into that later) that made the world so obsessed with them but I think we can all agree that Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss were a pair of friends that just seemed like they were made for each other in every aspect.

They were close friends (like, posing together on the cover of Vogue close) for years until suddenly they weren’t friends at all, and it left the world (or at least, Taylor Swift fans and TMZ) wondering what happened.

I’m on the #Kaylor bandwagon because I fully believe that Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss dated.

I’m not going to get into “what is Taylor Swift’s sexuality” because…what the hell do I know. But I just want to show some pieces that led me to think that Taylor and Karlie were more than just friends and see if I can make a believer out of anyone else out there. At the very least - it’s a fun theory so let me know what your thoughts are about it in the comments below!

Let’s get into it.

1. The “Lover” mural that looked like Karlie’s Victoria’s Secret outfit

To promote her Lover album, Taylor commissioned a mural in Nashville with the lead single (ugh, was there anyone who liked the song “Me!” out there?) and a lot of people noticed that it looked very similar to the outfit that Karlie Kloss wore at the Victoria’s Secret show that Taylor sang at. The butterfly wings have the same design - and even some of the items in there like the hearts and the rainbows match exactly what Karlie was wearing.

2. The lyric “you can feel it on the way home”

In Taylor’s song You Are In Love she has a lyric that says “you can feel it on the way home” (and then the part “on the way home” echoes twice after) which fans noticed was the same thing she captioned on her Instagram post of when her and Karlie took a trip together to Big Sur. Taylor says the song You Are In Love was about Lena Dunham and Jack Antonoff, but some people speculate that it’s about Karlie Kloss.

3. Her 1989 concert outfits exactly match outfits that Karlie’s worn before

I saw this post on the Instagram account kaylorklossy and was shook by how obvious it was. While these outfits might seem like coincidences - I don’t think they are. Some of these are exact replicas of what Karlie’s worn (and for big events, like the Victoria’s Secret fashion show or when she was in Taylor’s Bad Blood music video).

4. The lyric “I snuck in through the garden gate / every night that summer just to seal my fate”

In the song Cruel Summer (probably one of my favorite songs of all time) Taylor sings that line, and fans couldn’t help but notice…that Karlie’s West Village apartment had a garden gate entrance that Taylor would use to visit her.

You can see what that looked like (and other Kaylor theories) in this TikTok below.

5. Literally anything about the West Village or New York City

As a West Village resident myself - I feel like I have some grounds to say this. Both Karlie and Taylor lived in the West Village in New York (the iconic Cornelia Street proves that) and Taylor references both of these places a lot in her Lover and Reputation albums.

She claims that these songs are about Joe - her British boyfriend who lives in London. It makes no sense. With phrases like “you’re the West Village” and “I get mystified by how this city (Manhattan) screams your name” it’s just so obvious to me that she’s not talking about Joe. Joe screams London. Karlie lives in New York, has billboards of her face all over this city, attended classes at NYU, was the one who convinced Taylor to move to New York…I’m just saying if anyone’s name screams New York it’s certainly not Joe Alwyn.

6. The planned paparazzi shots with Joe to promote her new album

I’m not going to speculate on whether or not Taylor’s relationship with Joe is real or anything, but I’m just going to say that the day before her Delicate music video dropped she was paparazzi’d while hiking with Joe.

There’s a line in Delicate that says “dark jeans with your Nikes” and on the hike…the day before the music video for Delicate…Joe was wearing dark jeans and Nikes on their hike.

Why would anyone wear jeans hiking? It just seemed like such an obvious Public Relations move - and for someone who apparently wants to keep her relationship private it seems interesting to me that Joe just comes up in strategic mentions and only those mentions.

7. The “Kissgate” incident and Taylor’s online activity after it

Those who are big Taylor Swift fans know about “Kissgate” which happened at a 1989 concert. Taylor attended with some friends (including Karlie) and they watched the show from a balcony while drinking. A fan in the crowd below took some videos of them and caught this scene where it looked like Taylor and Karlie kissed.

Obviously it’s a blurry video - but it looks a lot like a kiss to me and if you watch the full video, they’re very intimate throughout it.

Another thing that points me to this being a kiss is that Taylor went home that night and Tumblr users saw that she was liking posts on Tumblr under the hashtag “#Kaylor”.

This is important because (in my mind) they went to the concert, kissed at it, Taylor came home drunk and liked photos online of the two of them together (because this video hadn’t yet been released to the public), then the next day this video was posted, the media was all over it, and Taylor removed the Tumblr likes that she had made the night before. Obviously I could be wrong but you know…it’s a conspiracy post.

8. They were attached at the hip in a way Taylor has never been with any of her other friends

Okay, this isn’t “evidence” technically, but I think everyone realized that Taylor and Karlie were inseparably close because Taylor acted with Karlie in a way that she never did with any of her other friends. Selena, Lorde, Abigail, you name it - they all seemed like friends but Taylor just naturally had a bit of a “shy girl in high school” and awkward vibe around them. I was really taken by her friendship with Karlie because of how close they just were.

I mean - just look at these adorable photos.

They’re just so close I absolutely love it!

And this is what Taylor looks like when she’s with her other friends - the body language is completely different.

Here and Gigi are close here - but she just doesn’t look comfortable like she does with Karlie

I just think she looks so much more natural and comfortable around Karlie than any other friend she’s had.

9. The Vogue YouTube video of them

This is the gayest thing I’ve ever seen before and I live on Christopher Street in the West Village. Haha I kid, but the part where they have to stare into each other’s eyes?? The camera man knew what he was doing.

10. Karlie lived with her. How many straight millionaire friends live together?

Some say this was actually where things started to go south in their relationship (that Karlie would have people over to Taylor’s without telling her) but at any rate - it’s confirmed that Karlie literally had her own bedroom in Taylor’s New York apartment.

Kaylor truthers like myself know where Karlie actually slept - but I feel like it’s such a massive sign that she had her own room there. How many of Taylor’s other female friends had a room at her place? None of them!

I think the last and final piece of evidence that Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss dated is the fact that they are enemies today.

Taylor’s drifted apart with some friends (Abigail, Selena, etc.) but they still post things on each other’s birthdays or send nice messages during important events. Taylor wasn’t at Karlie’s wedding (rumors say she wasn’t even invited) and there were no posts about her marriage, or recent pregnancy.

It’s also insanely telling that Karlie’s new manager is Scooter Braun himself which is just…not a coincidence that these girls used to be best friends and now they don’t speak and Karlie is under Scooter’s management. (For those who don’t know about the Taylor Swift and Scooter Braun drama, you should look it up!)

I think this is what inspired songs like My Tears Ricochet and I Forgot that You Existed and other pieces about losing someone after being betrayed by them.

So - there’s my case! Obviously I know it’s “toxic” to comment on a celebrity’s sexuality and such but I mean…these are just theories. And at the root of it I just really loved their relationship together and I think the entire world was really taken with it in a way we haven’t felt with any of Taylor’s other friends.

So let me know your thoughts in the comments below! Are you also a Kaylor believer?

Until the next one,
