THEN AND NOW: Taylor Swift's star-studded 'squad' of friends
Taylor Swift has a lot of famous friendships who have been referred to as members of her "squad."
Selena Gomez, Martha Hunt, Abigail Anderson Lucier, and Gigi Hadid are some of the original members.
Swift has also befriended actresses Blake Lively, Hailee Steinfeld, Emma Stone, and Lena Dunham.
Karlie Kloss was once considered Swift's best friend.
Karlie Kloss was once famously considered to be Swift's best friend.
At the time they met, Kloss was a new model on the scene, and she and Swift solidified their new friendship with a well-documented road trip to Big Sur.
Kloss confirmed that she and Swift are still close in 2019, but some fans aren't convinced.
Over the years, the tabloids liked to speculate that the two had a falling out, but in a 2019 interview with Time magazine, Kloss confirmed she is still friends with Swift.
But the model was spotted in photos on social media vacationing and hanging out with Scooter Braun amid Swift's feud with the music manager, which led fans to speculate another rift.
Fans have also recently theorized that Swift's song "It's Time to Go" is about the model.
In addition to modeling, Kloss now stars as the host of Bravo's "Project Runway" and runs the free camp "Kode with Klossy" to help young girls learn how to code.
In March 2021, Kloss welcomed her first child with her husband Joshua Kushner.
The model was spotted in the stands at Swift's Eras Tour in LA. Notably, she was not sitting in the VIP tent where celebrities often watch the singer's concerts.
Swift and Cara Delevingne seemingly met at the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Cara Delevingne and Swift seemed to link up after the 2013 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, which Swift performed at and Delevingne modeled in. Soon after, the two were spotted hanging out in New York City.
Delevingne was one of Swift's friends who appeared in the "Bad Blood" music video.
Delevingne has spent a lot of time acting, and she and Swift are still social-media friends.
Since meeting Swift, Delevingne has mostly transitioned from modeling to acting, playing Enchantress in "Suicide Squad" (2016) and starring in "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets" (2017).
Recently, she was on the TV series "Carnival Row" and appeared in Halsey's "Nightmare" music video.
The two friends have not been spotted together in a few years — and, in 2017, fans pointed out that the model wasn't name-checked on Swift's "squad shirt" in the "Look What You Made Me Do" music video.
But in 2019, Delevingne made it clear the pair are still friends by posting on Instagram to congratulate Swift on the release of her latest album, "Lover."
Delevingne was featured on the June 2020 issue of Variety, and Swift sent an email to the publication for the cover story, writing, "Cara is extreme, eccentric, hilarious, loving and deeply loyal."
Swift also sent her a promotional cardigan for her "Folklore" album, which she wore with Kaia Gerber for an Instagram Story.
Delevingne supported Swift at the opening night of her Eras Tour in Arizona. The friends were also spotted hanging out before Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley's wedding in August 2023.
Todrick Hall met Taylor Swift after she saw his YouTube cover of her "1989" album.
Todrick Hall got his start on YouTube doing mash-ups and covers of iconic songs and musicals.
He created an epic Swift-inspired mashup in 2015, and the "Red" singer loved it so much she invited him backstage to her 1989 tour and they became real-life friends.
He also appeared in the "Look What You Made Me Do" music video in 2017.
Hall rose to mainstream fame quickly, and he and Swift are still close collaborators.
Hall is widely known for his visual albums and his roles as guest judge and choreographer on "RuPaul's Drag Race."
He also starred on Broadway as Lola in "Kinky Boots" in 2017, and Swift saw him perform.
Plus Hall and Swift are still close collaborators.
He appeared in and was an executive producer of the "You Need to Calm Down" music video, which won for video of the year at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards.
In a June 2020 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Hall praised Swift for using her platform to promote activism amid the Black Lives Matter movement.
When Swift announced the drop of her new album "Folklore" (stylized as "folklore"), Hall posted to Instagram to say he would "be listening on repeat. AAAAAHHHHHHHH."
After Swift announced her ninth studio album, "Evermore" (stylized as "evermore"), Hall once again showed his support for his friend with a series of tweets.
In 2021, he posted photos wearing his "Red (Taylor's Version)" merch on Instagram.
Hall was also supportive of Swift's latest albums, like "Midnights" and "1989 (Taylor's Version)," on Instagram.
Martha Hunt likely met Swift at a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show.
Swift likely met model Martha Hunt at the 2014 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. After that event, the two were often seen hanging out around Swift's New York apartment.
Hunt is still modeling and supporting her friend, Swift.
Hunt is still a Victoria's Secret Angel and continues to be one of Swift's closest friends.
Hunt attended Swift's Pennsylvania Reputation tour stop in July 2018 where she took a trip to Swift's childhood home. Shortly after, she was spotted hanging out in New York with Swift during one of the singer's rare paparazzi snaps of 2018.
In 2019, Hunt shared a touching post for Swift's 30th birthday and helped her celebrate a few days later.
When "Taylor Swift City of Lover Concert" was released online in 2020, Hunt replied to a tweet about it calling it, "just heavenly."
Swift gifted Hunt with a cardigan from her "Folklore" merch, and Hunt posted a few pictures on Instagram of herself wearing it with the caption "peter losing wendy" — a line from "Cardigan."
Hunt celebrated Swift's win at the 2021 Grammys by posting a screenshot of the singer's acceptance speech on her Instagram Story.
Selena Gomez and Swift go way back.
Selena Gomez and Swift met way back in 2005 and Gomez told KIIS FM UK that they met because they were both dating Jonas brothers at the time.
"She was the girl with the big curly hair and the bracelets and the cowboy boots, and I was definitely up-and-coming. We just clicked," Gomez said.
Gomez and Swift are now one of Hollywood's power-couple friendships.
Gomez furthered her own music career and even performed "Hands to Myself" with Swift during a May 2018 Reputation tour stop.
While on stage, Gomez gave a tribute to her longtime pal in front of Swift's fans.
"The reason why she's one of my best friends is because this person has never, ever judged me for a decision I've made. She's always met me where I've been," Gomez said onstage during the show. "She encouraged me when I had nothing to be encouraged about. And I don't know if I would be as strong as I am if I didn't have you and your family."
Swift and Gomez are still close friends, and often show encouragement for each other online.
When Swift released "Lover" and Gomez released "Lose You to Love Me" from her album "Rare," both of them promoted the other's songs on their Instagram stories.
In August 2020, Gomez said that she's "always dreamt of doing a song with Taylor."
That same month, she launched her new HBO Max cooking show, and Swift made a surprise video-call appearance on one of the episodes. She introduced Swift to celebrity chef Roy Choi as her "best friend."
Since the release of "Evermore," fans have started to theorize that the song "Dorothea" is about Gomez.
When Swift dropped her rerecording of "Love Story" in the lead up to the release of "Fearless (Taylor's Version)," Gomez posted to her Instagram Story, writing, "So proud of you, as always, Tay ... LISTEN to THIS album"
In November 2021, Swift posted a TikTok of her and Gomez hanging out backstage during "Saturday Night Live."
During a June interview on USA Today's "Entertain This" series, Gomez said "Taylor really loved" season two of her Hulu show, "Only Murder in the Building."
In July 2022, the friends also got together to celebrate Gomez's 30th birthday. And Gomez went to a Texas show of Swift's Eras Tour.
The friends celebrated the Fourth of July together in 2023 a few days before Swift released "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)."
Gomez also attended an LA show of Swift's Eras Tour, and the friends have periodically been spotted hanging out in LA and NYC.
Blake Lively met Swift around 2015 but laid low when it came to the "squad" pics.
It's unclear when Blake Lively and Swift first met, though they were spotted hanging out at a theme park in Australia together in 2015.
Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds also attended Swift's iconic "Taymerica" Fourth of July party in 2016.
Lively' has become one of Swift's closest friends.
Some of the "Gossip Girl" star's most recent movie roles include "The Rhythm Section" (2020) and "A Simple Favor" (2018).
Lively has also had three daughters with Reynolds since she and Swift became friends.
The two still seem to be close. Lively's daughter James' voice is heard on Swift's 2017 song "Gorgeous," she and Reynolds appeared in photos from Swift's 2019 New Year's Eve party, and at the end of 2019, the couple was part of the crowd that helped Swift celebrate her 30th birthday.
During the 2021 Grammys, Swift thanked Lively, Reynolds, and their three kids in her speech after she won album of the year for "Folklore."
On Halloween 2021, fans think Swift — donned in a squirrel costume she posted on Instagram earlier in the day — joined Lively and Reynolds for trick-or-treating in NYC.
Lively also made her directorial debut in the music video for the "Red (Taylor's Version)" vault track "I Bet You Think About Me."
Lively and Swift have been photographed hanging out together in New York City with groups of friends. The actress also attended a Philadelphia show of the Eras Tour, and Swift even gave Lively's daughters a shoutout during the concert.
More recently, Lively joined Swift in the stands to watch Travis Kelce playing in Super Bowl LVIII.
Lorde and Swift bonded over music.
After Lorde burst onto the scene with her breakout single "Royals," Swift sent her flowers. Eventually, the two singers met up (at Shake Shack) and formed a friendship.
In fact, Swift told PopCrush that Lorde was one of the first people to hear "1989" before it was released because Swift said the young singer gives awesome advice.
Lorde also performed as one of Swift's guest stars during her Washington, DC 1989 tour performance.
Lorde's career took off as she battled reports about her friendship with Swift being over.
In 2017, after a publication mistakenly reported that she and Swift were on the outs, Lorde tweeted: "I want to say one more time that Taylor has been there for me in all my dark and light moments these past five years. All of them."
Since then, however, Swift and Lorde haven't been seen together much.
Lorde, for her part, has had a sensational career and followed up her debut album with 2017's "Melodrama" and 2021's "Solar Power."
Hailee Steinfeld was also an early member of Swift's "squad."
The actress/singer appeared in a ton of Swift's Instagram posts in the pre-2015 "squad era," was in the "Bad Blood" video, and even walked onstage during one of the famous "squad" appearances from the 1989 tour.
At the time, Steinfeld was best known for her role in the "Pitch Perfect" series and her 2015 album "HAIZ."
It's unclear if Swift and Steinfeld are still close, but Steinfeld's career is on the rise.
Steinfeld told Seventeen magazine in 2016 that she didn't spend as much time with Swift as people might have assumed, but that she does consider her a friend.
Today, Steinfeld's music career has taken a back seat to her successful acting career with recent credits such as "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" (2019), "Between Two Ferns: The Movie" (2019), and "Charlie's Angels" (2019).
She also starred on the Apple TV+ series "Dickinson."

Swift invited Ellie Goulding to perform with her during the 1989 tour.
The "Lights" singer was a fixture in Swift's "squad" during the 1989 tour, appeared in the "Bad Blood" video, and even reportedly first introduced Swift to musician Calvin Harris.
Swift and Harris dated throughout 2015 and 2016.
It's unclear if the two are still friends, but Goulding has been in the studio working on her album.
It's unclear if Swift and Goulding are still friends, as the two haven't publicly interacted in years.
For her part, Goulding told Billboard in December 2018 that she has been in the studio for the last two years working on a new album and enjoying her engagement to Caspar Jopling.
She and Jopling have since gotten married, and her latest studio album, "Brightest Blue" was released in July 2020.

Cabello and Swift are still close friends, and Cabello even opened for the Reputation tour.

Stone is one of Swift's most low-key friends, but she did show up for the Reputation tour.

King and Swift are still close, though they're known for sharing quieter nights.
On December 8, 2018, King shared a throwback photo of Swift dancing at that 2014 Golden Globes party where they met.

Kislinger attended the American Music Awards with Swift in October 2018.

She also directed a series of shorts — including a video for Tory Burch in 2015 — and spends a lot of time doing charity work with the UN regarding the global refugee crisis.
She and Swift haven't been seen together on or offline in a few years, so it's unclear if they're still friends.
In May 2023, Rolling Stone asked Agron about the reports that she dated Swift in 2012. Her response was, "That is so interesting. I mean, there have been many stories about my dating life that are so wildly untrue. That's funny."
