Rumors started when: Justin Bieber spilled the beans. He started a rumor that Taylor Swift was hot for Harry Styles of the pop group One Direction in April of 2012. According to reports, Swift went to see the boyband in concert, and because the Biebs was there, she confided in him. The whole thing is very high school lunchroom-esque, but it led to a few weeks of people thinking they were together. Styles also admitted he texted her while he was in America.

The scoop: While Styles does like older women, he owned up to being only friends with Swift in early 2012. "She is very talented," he added. It's hard to believe Swift would date an 18-year-old... Well, at least it was until she started dating Conor Kennedy. And then was seen holding hands with Styles late in the year. This one is to be continued...
