Taylor Swift's changing girl squad — from Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid, to Zendaya and Karlie Kloss

Taylor's friendship with Selena is a tale as old as time, as they bonded while both dating a Jonas brother in 2008. Their friendship has only gotten stronger over the years, with Selena calling Taylor her only celebrity friend.

The Girls creator is a big reason as to why Taylor identifies as a feminist. The singer explained in a Guardian interview that being friends with Lena showed the songstress a new approach to feminism: "Without her preaching to me, but just seeing why she believes what she believes, why she says what she says, why she stands for what she stands for – has made me realise that I’ve been taking a feminist stance without actually saying so." 

Lena doesn't even seem to mind that Taylor is best friends with her ex, Jack Antonoff - especially as the singer was a bridesmaid at her wedding to Luis Felber.

Taylor counts Gigi as one of her close friends, explaining that the model "has this incredible ability to see all sides of a situation and simplify it for you, to see the complexity of people." They are often seen spending time together, and Gigi even caught up with Taylor in Nashville on the Eras Tour.

The model became friends with Taylor after meeting during the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, and their friendship blossomed as Cara joined Taylor onstage during her 1989 show. Cara joined Taylor during the AFC Championships, as Travis' Kansas City Chiefs took on the Baltimore Ravens.

The Challengers star played a key role in the "Bad Blood" music video, appearing to be good friends. However, they haven't really been seen together since, and fans have speculated this might be because Zendaya reportedly liked some tweets 'dissing' the singer during her feud with the Kardashians.

Paramore's powerhouse songstress remains a close friend of Taylor's, after meeting in 2008 when introduced by the "cardigan" singer's mom. Now, Paramore are supporting Taylor on the European leg of the Eras Tour, ten years after initially featuring in the "Bad Blood" music video.

Taylor's close relationship with Karlie Kloss has long been subject to speculation from Swifties, as they were once the best of friends. Having first met during the Victoria's Secret Show in 2013, they became fast friends - even having a joint Vogue cover. Karlie appeared at several shows during the 1989 tour, and they took photos together on walks. The model even reportedly had a room in Taylor's apartment.

Fans believe that when Taylor fell out with Scooter Braun over the sale of her masters, Karlie took the famous manager's side as they had also been close friends. Now, Taylor only follows the model on Instagram, and Karlie was spotted in a distant seat when the Eras Tour hit California, as opposed to in one of the priority seats.

The Haim sisters are close friends of Taylor's, after opening for her during the 1989 tour. They have since featured on her evermore album with "No Body, No Crime". They also appeared in Taylor's "Bejeweled" music video as evil step sisters.

Taylor and Blake are close friends, with the singer naming characters in her track "Betty", as well as "August" and "cardigan", from the critically acclaimed folklore album after the actress' three (at the time) children. The duo can often be seen going out for dinner together, and Blake even accompanied her bestie to the Super Bowl.

Taylor and Lorde seemed to bond as young singer songwriters, with the "Royals" singer spending time on the RED tour with her. Taylor even hugged Lorde during a performance of "22". But the "Solar Power" singer has certainly had her critiques of Taylor, as she once described being friends with her as being "like having a friend with very specific allergies. There are certain places you can't go together. Certain things you can't do". The duo went to lunch and Lorde reportedly apologized for her public comments about the singer.

Taylor and Emma became friends in 2008, after meeting at the Young Hollywood Awards for Hollywood Life magazine. She described her as "a pretty normal girl", and Taylor once said that Emma gives the best advice after a breakup. Taylor's song "When Emma Falls in Love" is reportedly about the Oscar winning actress.

Taylor befriended Sophie, who was in a relationship with the singer's ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas. The girls met around 2019, after appearing on Graham Norton together, and Sophie even cheered Taylor on during an SNL appearance. When Sophie and Joe separated, filing for divorce, the Game of Thrones actress described Taylor as an "absolute hero" who opened her home for Sophie and her children.
