TAYLOR FUMES OVER LESBIAN FIRESTORM!

Livid over chatter she's in the closet

SONGBIRD Taylor Swift is in a total meltdown — and her current fairytale romance with NFL football stud Travis Kelce is being thrown for a loop — after a prominent newspaper columnist suggested she’s a closet lesbian or secret bisexual!

Ironically, while the 34-year-old pop music queen built her billion-dollar career on tunes about her failed romances with a string of guys, she’s raging that her fans have no need to know the truth about her sexuality, insiders dish.

“This has really touched a nerve with Taylor because she’s sick and tired of people gossiping about her sexuality,” dishes a friend.

But critics claim the thrush has only herself to blame for the drama, citing revealing photos of her make-out sessions with switch hitting model Karlie Kloss, her intimate relationship with pansexual modelactress Cara Delevingne and her close attachment to lesbian singer Brandi Carlile. Tay-Tay’s world exploded when New York Times editor Anna Marks penned a column saying Swift has dropped hints — or “hairpins” — about her sexuality in her songs and by wearing Gay Pride flag colors onstage.

“In isolation, a single dropped hairpin is perhaps meaningless or accidental, but considered together, they’re the unfurling of a ballerina bun after a long performance,” Marks writes. “Those dropped hairpins suggest to queer people that she is one of us.”
