- Taylor Swift has known music producer Jack Antonoff for over a decade and the pair worked together on singles such as ‘Lover’ and ‘Cruel Summer’; the Eras Tour star was also at Antonoff’s wedding
- And it’s not just Taylor Swift: Antonoff is a big deal in the industry, and has worked with Lorde, Lana Del Rey, Sia, Carly Rae Jepsen, FKA Twigs, Troye Sivan and Elon Musk’s ex Grimes too
Taylor Swift has a loyal band of Swifties who are always ready to come to her defence, but the pop superstar’s closest friends are also known to be fiercely protective of her.
Not least Jack Antonoff – her long-time collaborator and one of her most trusted confidantes.

In a recent interview with the Los Angeles Times, Antonoff called out Ye, aka Kanye West, for his persistent unprovoked attacks against the “Anti-Hero” singer.
“I’m a little b**ch sometimes,” the 39-year-old told the publication, “But you come after my friend Taylor, you’re toast to me.” Referring to the rapper, he said, “[Kanye West] just needs his diaper changed so badly.”
Some think West has been trying to reignite his one-sided feud with Swift after mentioning her in his new album, Vultures 1, though the rapper denies any ill will towards the Eras Tour star.
Here’s everything we know about Swift’s good pal and the man we partly have to thank for some of her greatest songs.
