Taylor Swift Not Dating Alexander Skarsgard, Did Not Inspire New Ed Sheeran Song

When will people realize that just because Taylor Swift is in the vicinity of a male, it doesn't mean she's dating the guy?  Those rumors that Taylor is involved with actor Alexander Skarsgard, her co-star in the movie The Giver, are not true.

While Taylor and the 37-year-old Skarsgard have been working together on the movie in South Africa, there's nothing going on between them. A rep for Taylor tells ABC News Radio that the story is "completely fabricated," adding, "Taylor never met Alexander before she arrived in South Africa and they're not dating."

And while we're on the topic of Taylor and rumors about her love life, she didn't inspire Ed Sheeran's new song, either.  After Ed, Taylor's tour mate and duet partner, unveiled a new song earlier this week at a show in New York City, rumors started that she had inspired it — perhaps because the lyrics mention a girl with blue eyes.  But Ed's manager Stuart Camp took to Twitter to tell a fan specifically that the song is "not about Taylor Swift."
