Great news: Taylor Swift has a new boyfriend! It's Scottish DJ Calvin Harris. Oh, but he already has a tragic flaw that could doom his budding romance with Swift: Harris is allergic to cats. Can they overcome it, or will Swift be writing breakup songs about six months from now?
This is a huge bummer, isn't it? Swift has two cats, Olivia Benson and Meredith Grey. So what happens when Harris wants to sleep with Swift, too? An anonymous source (so we're a tad skeptical) says it's already causing a rift with the couple.
When he stayed over at Taylor's LA house last week, Calvin says he was up all night blowing his nose and complaining he couldn't breathe. Apparently he's allergic to the long, fluffy hair on Taylor's cats and they usually sleep in the bed so it's everywhere.
Aw, the poor guy. I feel for him because I have cat allergies, too -- and it's full-blown misery. My eyes itch and my asthma flares. Soon I'm a watery, itchy, swollen-eyed, wheezing mess.
But wait a minute, why did Harris get involved with a famous cat lady in the first place? Doesn't everyone know about Swift's devotion to her feline family? Tell me this did not come as a surprise to him! At the least she probably would have alerted him to her cats before his first visit to her place -- that's a common courtesy most cat owners extend. And Harris would have had the chance to grab some meds on his way over.
According to the source, now Harris wants to meet anywhere but Swifth's house.
I don't know ... I'm not sure this relationship is going to last. If Harris isn't willing to take a freakin' Claritin for his lady that's not a good sign. And it's definitely asking too much for Swift to give up her cats, especially this early in the relationship. Who's more likely to remain loyal to Taylor over the long haul, after all? The cats, or the Scottish DJ? I think we all know the answer to that question.
Anyway, we hope the source is wrong about this one!
Do you think Harris is being a bit of a baby about the cats?
