We think it’s safe to say there’s Bad Blood between Calvin Harris’ close pal John Newman and Taylor Swift.
Taylor, 26, and Calvin had quite a messy break-up earlier this year and John didn’t help when he revealed that Taylor had secretly written the lyrics to Calvin’s This Is What You Came For.
John’s revelation led to a huge public spat between the pair but Newman insists any animosity was brought on by Taylor and she was brutal to Calvin.

“From her side? Yeah, it did get brutal,” he told The Sun on Sunday.
“I’m like Calvin, happy to take a back seat. I like my music to do the talking.

“When I tweeted that, there was a text almost immediately from Calvin. He was like, ‘Down. Now’.
“And then it all came out anyway. No I’m not [friendly with Taylor any more], I don’t agree with what’s gone on … but I shouldn’t comment further. I wouldn’t know her well enough, weirdly. She’s in another world.”
