For a long, hot minute Taylor Swift was stuck in daily headlines like stubborn toilet paper on a shoe.

Now she’s squirreled away, allegedly in hiding with paramour Travis Kelce, and refusing to accept calls, texts or visits from her most loyal lady friends.

For a woman who would seemingly rather die than forgo the constant drumbeat of pop publicity, it’s a surprising move.

Insiders say this new-found invisibility cloak has a lot to do with the putrid legal swap swirling around her former bestie Blake Lively – and the actress’s endless Justin Baldoni suit-a-thon over their movie It Ends With Us.

Swift’s once-pure name has been sprinkled throughout various briefs – and the whole saga has reportedly left her bond with Lively now dead-ly and the songstress feeling ‘used’.

Long gone, then, are the days of these leggy sirens sauntering hand-in-hand on double dates.

For a long, hot minute Taylor Swift was stuck in daily headlines like stubborn toilet paper on a shoe. Now she’s squirreled away, allegedly in hiding with paramour Travis Kelce, and refusing to accept calls, texts or visits from her most loyal lady friends.

In fact, 35-year-old Taylor has become so school-girl scorned that she seems to have ghosted the entire world.

And not for the first time.

Just ask fellow statuesque blonde and karmic casualty Karlie Kloss – who was surgically attached to Swift until their platonic split in 2017.

Supermodel Kloss became engaged to Ivanka Trump’s brother-in-law Joshua the next year and she married in a Swiftless ceremony in 2019.

Scurrilous and silly lesbian rumors dogged ‘Kaylor’ for years, with the suggestion even circulating that Kloss slept at Swift’s NYC mansion.

But while the girl-on-girl gossip was impossible to prove, Kloss’s falling foul was pretty on brand for petty Taylor, who seemed to cut the stunner loose when she no longer fulfilled Swift’s publicity needs.

Lively can also take comfort knowing she isn’t the only squad goer who got back-burned this year.

Recall that Selena Gomez appeared to be placed on simmer after she embarrassed herself with a blubbering social media screed decrying President Trump’s mass deportations in January.

And then there’s model/actress Jamie King.

The mother to Swift’s godchild, Leo, just dramatically lost physical custody of her two young sons over her on-going addiction issues.

It’s a sordid and sad affair – so where is Swift’s sisterly proclamation of undying devotion when King needs it most?

And here’s another question: if the Ice Queen turns extra frosty when you fail to stick to the perfect script, why is she now allowing the story of her own vanishing act to become so unruly?

After all, we’re talking about a billion-dollar control freak, obsessed with Grammys and gongs and a constant desperation to bend the narrative to her advantage.

Perhaps the slew of recent rejections has knocked her off her off her kitten heels.

Voters rejected Swift last year after she bravely endorsed Kamala when the floundering Veep managed a debate win.

Turns out the weight of her sequined stars weren’t such a sure thing.

Meanwhile, NFL fans grew sick of her wall-to-wall face-shots hogging their screens during Chiefs games – and so much so that many cheered her boyfriend’s humiliation at Super Bowl LIX in February.

That loss came just days after Swift waggled her weird thigh chain at the Grammy Awards – only to go home empty handed because everyone hated her lackluster latest offering (The Tortured Poets Department was indeed torture to listen to).

Perhaps it’s a good thing, then, that Taylor has put herself in time out.

If she hasn’t already, she’ll swiftly realize there can be too much of a good thing.
