Taylor Swift and Lorde have shot down reports of a rift in their friendship.

The two singers, who are good pals, were rumoured to have fallen out over a disagreement on a possible collaboration, but they have laughed off the stories as ridiculous.

First up, Taylor tweeted her disdain for the story about herself and her mate from New Zealand:

Then Lorde weighed in with her support by retweeting Taylor and adding:

Lorde had recently told Capital Radio about the chances of the pair collaborating: “Yeah we are [different] but I think the cool thing about Taylor is she is pretty willing to go a lot of places with music. I think that last record [Red] in particular, everyone was like ‘Woah’. And I think with an artist like her, the sky is the limit.”
