Without confirmation nor evidence, fans speculated that Glee actor Dianna Agron, 37, and Taylor Swift, 33, dated throughout the 2010s. Some Swifties even went as far as to theorize that some of Swift’s music is about their (completely alleged!) romantic relationship.
Agron and Swift were, in fact, friends throughout 2011 and 2012 (they saw The Hunger Games together), but just a few years later, Agron was absent from the squad and all of Taylor’s social media.
Now, ten years later, Argon has finally addressed the speculation in an interview with Rolling Stone.
Agron appears in the liner notes for the song “22,” featured on Swift’s 2012 album Red, which led many fans to believe that Agron was the inspiration for the song, and to infer that the friendship was something more. “Me? Oh, if only! That’s more because of a friendship than being the inspiration for the song,” Argon told Rolling Stone when asked if she was Swift’s muse. “But I would not be the person to ask about that. I cannot claim that!”
When Argon was asked about those who longed for her and Swift’s friendship to be romantic, she said, “That is so interesting. I… I mean, there have been many stories about my dating life that are so wildly untrue. That’s funny.”
Elsewhere in the interview, Dianna Agron also looked back at her time on Glee, in which she played Quinn Fabray. “If I see footage of myself from that period, I see my youth and I see the heart and community and family we had with each other. It’s emotional, nostalgic, heartwarming, and career-affirming. That experience opened up so many doors, and I’m so grateful that that’s how I learned everything,” she said.
