Bye bye Tay?
#TaylorSwiftIsOverParty
Crikey. What the HELL happened last night.
Well, just in case you haven't heard — people, where have you been — Calvin Harris is a bit vexed. And he's only gone and used Twitter to effectively throw a massive cat amongst the Swiddleston/Hiddleswift/Tayto pigeons.
Following news revealed on Wednesday that Taylor Swift actually co-wrote ex BF Calvin’s smash hit ‘This Is What You Came For’ under a pseudonym (burn), the jilted lover decided to respond in quite the explosive fashion, taking to Twitter to vent his irritation.
It started off friendly enough…
And she sings on a little bit of it too

Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual https://t.co/vW3yGOIJit
I wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut the vocals though. And initially she wanted it kept secret, hence the pseudonym

But then, things started to get a bit, errr...
Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though

I figure if you're happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do

And then, the bombshell.
I know you're off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I'm not that guy, sorry. I won't allow it
— Calvin Harris (@CalvinHarris) 13 July 2016
Wait... what was that about Katy?
Please focus on the positive aspects of YOUR life because you've earned a great one

God bless everyone have a beautiful day

Woah. WOAH.
Yep, in a series of 7 tweets, Calvin Harris caused total Twitter apocalypse and within minutes, the hashtag #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty started trending like, THE most insane trending thing ever. It seems that many, many people have been waiting for this Tay Tay take-down, and unsurprisingly, they were armed to the teeth.
Katy Perry fans (remember 'Bad Blood'... yeah, revenge is a dish best served cold huh KPez?), Rihanna fans, Kimye fans in fact, anyone with a Swifty axe to grind flooded Twitter with their wishes to attend the #TaylorSwiftIsOverParty. There were so, SO many hilarious examples to choose from, but here are just a few of our favourites...

And then, it just got better. Like a phoenix from the 'Bad Blood' ashes, ex-squad member Katy Perry got involved by first tweeting:

And then, re-tweeting a message from 2015...
Time, the ultimate truth teller.

Ooh, snap.
The jig is apparently up for all those of the opinion that Taylor Swift isn't the wholesome cookie-cutter pop princess she appears to be. However, there are a lot of people (not necessarily Swifties) that think all of this social media skulduggery is just a well-orchestrated publicity stunt. Or (more simply) the actions of a spiteful ex.
Either way, Calvin Harris hasn't gone down quietly. He is affronted, and has actually gained a lot of respect for speaking out so candidly about 'the-one-we-don't-say-bad-things-about-because-you'll-get-taken-to-the-cleaners'. Plus, everyone loves a good Twitter spat right?
Taylor has yet to respond, and we're actually excited about how she'll take this s*** down. If there's one thing we've learned over time, is that you DO NOT MESS WITH TAYLOR SWIFT. And you know, props to that.
Watch this space...
