Drake has once again forced us to wonder about the impossible.
To ask a question we never thought we’d ask.
To consider whether the Internet may soon blow up and the world as we know it cease to exist.
Because we must once again ponder the following: Could Drake and Taylor Swift be dating?!?
Rumors of a romance between the superstars cropped up a couple weeks ago after Swift attended Drake’s 30th birthday party.
This fact on its own wasn’t enough to garner romance chatter, considering such other celebrities as John Mayer, Katy Perry, Jamie Foxx and French Montana were also in attendance at this shindig.
But witnesses at the event confirmed that Drake and Swift looked especially cozy at the party.
According to one insider, the A-Listers “were intimately flirting, talking closely and laughing,” while another source told The New York Post:
“The only person he spent more time with other than his mom was Taylor.”
And speaking of Drake’s mom… the singer introduced Swift to her!
WHOA, right?!? That has to mean the stars are an item, doesn’t it?
You don’t just introduce casual friends to your parents, do you?
Perhaps you do.
Follow-up reports claimed that Drake’s mom was simply a big Taylor Swift fan and wanted to meet one of her musical idols.
So… so much for this crazy dating talk, right?
WRONG!
Drake just got everyone with an Internet connection wondering about his status with Swift again by sharing the picture featured atop this post.
“Is that velvet?” Drake wrote as a caption, including a flower emoji along with his question.
As you might expect, this social media update has followers of both artists up in curious arms.
“Drake posted a picture with Taylor Swift and I have never been so stressed out!!! What IS this?” one commenter tweeted on Friday, while a second added:
“Can someone tell me wtf is up with drake and taylor swift??”
Us, too! Can someone tell us, too, WTF is up with Drake and Taylor Swift?!?
Page Six wrote that Drake and Swift are working on new music together, which could explain why they’ve been spending a lot of time together.
Way back in 2010, Drade made it clear that he’d be “down” to collaborate with Swift.
“Seeing Taylor Swift in person is always fun for me. I bought this Taylor Swift T-shirt the other day that I might wear tonight,” he told Extra at the time.
“I just have this small little thing with her; I just like her whole being. I’m excited about her career.”
Yes, this was said six years ago.
But he likes her “whole being?!?” Those are strong words.
We’re going to keep a close eye on these two and keep readers apprised of what they are doing, with whom they are doing it and whether or not they are doing each other.
If you know what we mean.
