Taylor Swift’s Squad: Everything You Need To Know

Blake Lively

Gossip Girl actress Blake Lively is one of the newer additions to Taylor’s squad, but a lot of people aren’t mad about it. Apparently Lively has been a big fan of Taylor’s and even praised her on her own Instagram account when Blake posted a picture that Taylor once took with her niece. In 2015, Lively was in Australia filming for The Shallows, which also happened to be the time Swift was in town for her 1989 World Tour.

Apparently, the two hit it off because they have hung out on numerous occasions after that. On Taylor’s birthday that year, Lively posted a picture of the two on a rollercoaster with the caption, “There’s a reason ‘#friendshipgoals’ was invented because of her. Thank you @taylorswift for the happiness you bring to not only everyone that knows you, but also to those who don’t — you’re the real deal.”
