Your BFF’s stick by you through thick and thin and Taylor has proved over and over that the inner circles of her squad have her back.

Selena Gomez and Swift are the best of friends, sharing advice with each other about things like relationships and careers. These two are so close knit and everyone is talking about them.

Swift and Emma Stone are great friends and are often seen supporting each other at concerts and premieres. Emma and Tay are on tight schedules so talk mostly by e-mail, but we sometimes see them having fun together too and both share a love of style.

Swift and Lena Dunham formed a close bond and worked on several songs together on Swift’s album, 1989. The two both have a huge love for cats too.
Taylor Swift’s Rivals
As much as we like Taylor, not everyone does. The drama follows everyone especially a big celebrity like Taylor Swift. Below are some of her loudest rivals.
Kate Perry

The feud between Swift and Katy Perry is the inspiration for Swift’s song Bad Blood. Their feud started when Perry tried to lure some of Swift’s backup dancers.
Camilla Belle

Swift blamed Camilla Belle for her split with Joe Jonas. She believes that Jonas broke up with her so that he could start a relationship with Belle. Swift even penned a song about Belle, Better Than Revenge.
Kendal Jenner

The rival with Swift and Kendal Jenner is due in part to Swift defending her BFF Selena Gomez. Gomez asked for Swift’s help in getting even with Jenner. It seems that Gomez thought Jenner was spending too much time in public with her ex, Justin Bieber.
Nicki Minaj

The rival between Swift and Nicki Minaj started when the nominations were released for the MTV Video Music Awards. Minaj was upset because she wasn’t nominated for Video of the Year, prompting a rant on Twitter. Nicki posted tweets like, “If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for vid of the year.” Taylor tweeted back with, “I’ve done nothing but love and support you.” Minaj claimed the tweet wasn’t aimed at Swift, with Swift later apologizing. These two seem to keep heating back up in the gossip about the same time the Taylor and Kanye West had it out publicly during award season. With Nicki, there is a rivalry going on, but with Kanye, it was plain disrespect and arrogance which is why he didn’t grace our list this time.
So are there any other of Taylor Swift’s best friends that you love? What about other bitter rivals that we missed? Who do you think is at the top and bottom of Taylor’s list these days? Tell us in the comments!

I didn’t know she was friends with most of these people. I think she is adorable, though, so I am not surprised she has so many friends.
Makes sense that there would be bffs and rivalries in the industry. My daughter is definitely a Swifty and probably knows all the people Taylor Swift is friends with. lol
I enjoy Swift’s music. I don’t really pay attention to the rest.
I think there is drama in everyone’s life it’s just in the celebrity world it is more under a microscope with crazier people. I am glad in all that craziness that she has a few good friends.
It wasn’t until my daughter really got into Taylor Swift that I paid her much attention. I love what she does for young girls, empowering them & making it a great time to be a girl. All of these feuds seem pretty childish!
I have heard that she has a huge heart and is really giving to all of her friends. I had no idea she had any rivals, other than Kanye! LOL
I didn’t realize that Taylor Swift had this many rivals. I think its crazy how may different arguments these celebrities can get into.
My daughter is obsessed with Taylor Swift! I had no idea about these rivals that she has, I am going to have to share this with my daughter.
I knew about her and Katy Perry having a rivalry but that was it. I guess because she’s in the limelight you hear about this kind of stuff more.
I want to start a feud with Selena Gomez, so I can be Taylor’s new bestie. I adore her! It took some time for me to warm up, but I think she’s adorable.
I do like Emma Stone a lot. I didn’t realize they were great friends!
My family loves Taylor Swift. I had no idea she was rivaling with anyone.
She’s got a lot of history for being such a young lady! I guess everything is heightened when you’re that famous!
I must admit, I am not really into the whole Hollywood feud thing. My daughter probably is.
I really like Taylor Swift. My Daughter wants to go see her in concert when she comes to our area.
Taylor seems to be just as famous for her boyfriends and fights as she is for her music. She has such a beautiful voice.
