Taylor Swift “doesn’t mind settling for second best,” begins a piece from Life & Style, which claims the pop star “originally had her eye on Zayn Malik” before she got together with his One Direction bandmate Harry Styles last year.

A purported “insider” tells the mag, “When Zayn found out she was interested, he turned her down.”

“That’s when she swooped in on Harry,” adds the so-called “source.”

OK, so why are we just hearing about this now, nearly a year later?

Probably because Life & Style is the same publication which previously claimed Swift was dating a pro surfer she had never met before, and the tab still knows nothing about the singer’s personal life.

A rep for Swift says the magazine’s story is NOT true.

Zayn Malik & Perrie Edwards Engagement Triggers Sick #CutForZerrie Twitter Trend

Zayn Malik and Perrie Edwards’ announcement that they’re engaged has been cheered by most fans of the One Direction singer and Little Mix singers — but an ugly, sick Twitter trending topic has also taken off.

#CutForZerrie has been among the leading trends in the United States and elsewhere on Saturday.

The implication of the online campaign — which echoes last winter’s horrifying #CutForBieber prank — is that One Direction fans are self-harming (and threatening Edwards) in the wake of the engagement news.

While the Justin Bieber-related trend earlier this year included a barrage of gruesome (real and fabricated) pictures portraying the cutting of wrists, the majority of #CutForZerrie images as Saturday progressed made light of the situation — such photos of a wedding cake being sliced.

But regardless of how the trend originally gained momentum, observers were outraged and disgusted by the notion of a “Cut For Zerrie” protest of Malik and Edwards’ romance.

Thousands of One Direction fans attacked the #CutForZerrie hashtag as inexcusable — even as a “joke” — considering how serious the issue of ACTUAL self-harm is for millions of young people.

Gossip Cop agrees.

Zayn Malik has broken his silence on his engagement to Perrie Edwards.

The One Direction singer took to Twitter on Friday afternoon to publicly address the news for the first time, writing, “Never been more happy in my life!”

“Thank you to everyone that has been so lovely about my engagement to my beautiful fiancé ! Big love z X,” he went on.

Less than an hour later, Edwards tweeted out a similar message.

“Iv also never felt so happy! 🙂 Thank you everyone for being so kind and supportive!” wrote the Little Mix singer on the group’s official account, adding, ”Im a lucky girl! xD I Love you all! Perrie <3″

As Gossip Cop previously reported, Edwards’ mom confirmed earlier this week that the couple became engaged last Sunday.

Edwards went on to debut her engagement ring at the One Direction: This Is Us premiere in London on Tuesday.
