Taylor Swift, Gyllenhaal Pairing Intrigues Public

The apparent couplehood of singer Taylor Swift, 20, and actor Jake Gyllenhaal, 29, is celebrity news and gossip that has seriously piqued the interest of the entertainment industry’s celebrity chroniclers. First spotted together in October at a taping of “Saturday Night Live,” the two have been seen together many times since, both in New York and in Swift’s hometown of Nashville.

The latest issue of Us Weekly has the two on the cover holding hands over the Thanksgiving holiday, and sources say that the two have met each others’ famlies. Speculation is rife over what could have brought the two such seemingly different people together, with the two favorite conjectures being, “They’re promoting new projects,” and “He likes blondes.”
