With their blonde-haired, blue-eyed, girl- and boy-next-door good looks, it's no wonder that sparks ignited between Lucas Till and Taylor Swift on the set of her 2009 video for "You Belong With Me." The song may not have been written about Till, but he was cast to star in the video as the object of Swift's affection. The singer told MTV that she and Till met nearly a year earlier, around the time he was filming "Hannah Montana: The Movie" with Miley Cyrus. He made quite the impression. "[He] plays my love interest in the video, and he does such a great job," Swift said about working with the up-and-coming actor. "He's absolutely perfect for the part and really fun to be around, too."
According to Till, the fun continued once the director yelled "Cut." In a case of life imitating art, he became Swift's off-camera love interest. In late 2009, Till admitted to MTV that he and the pop superstar briefly dated, but it never really went anywhere, saying that he thought of her more as a "friend." "That's the only reason that didn't work out," he said.
Ouch! Guess he didn't belong with her after all. But while that comment may have stung a little, Swift could lick her wounds knowing that her hunky co-star also told MTV that he preferred Swift's on-screen kisses to his co-star Cyrus. "I chose Taylor Swift and I'm gonna stick with that answer," he said. Nice save.
