Here’s something I didn’t see coming: Taylor Swift and I might have very similar squad goals. Swift recently struck up a Twitter friendship with Patrick Stewart — so naturally I’m jealous — and now they’re apparently ready to make the jump to friends IRL as well. “She’s coming to town,” Stewart tells E! News, adding that attending a Swift show is apparently in the cards for him and best pal Ian McKellan. “I think we’re working on that. I mean, she’s invited us into her squad.” This is not fair, universe. Not fair. RELATED:Is Taylor Swift’s new single about Calvin Harris? And to think, it all started with some adorable back-and-forth tweeting:
