The 'Scream Queens' actor briefly dated the 'Shake It Off' singer in 2009 and he still has fond memories of their time together.

Asked about their romance, he told 'Entertainment Tonight': "It was a good time. It was a fun few months there."

And Taylor later admitted he still listens to his former girlfriend's music while he was being mocked about his love life by 'Scream Queens' co-stars Lea Michele and John Stamos during a Facebook Live interview.

Lea said: "You dated Taylor Swift. I remember that. Should we talk about it?

"Didn't she write a song about you?"

Taylor replied: "That's what she does. She writes songs."

John then asked which song his pal had inspired, and Lea replied: "I think it was on the one about a sweater and a hat."

The 'Cuckoo' actor appeared visibly uncomfortable and tried to change the subject, simply saying: "That's hilarious."

But Lea persisted with her questioning, and then said: "Am I right, though? I listened to '22' by the pool today. I was like, 'I'm feeling 22, guys.' "

Taylor then conceded: "It's good music. I listen to it."

While Taylor has only nice things to say about his former girlfriend, the 26-year-old singer - who is now dating Tom Hiddleston - recently found herself slammed by her most recent ex-boyfriend, Calvin Harris.

Calvin took to the social networking site to claim his former flame was trying to "tear [him] down" after she confirmed she wrote his latest song 'This Is What You Came For' under a pseudonym.

In a series of tweets, he wrote: "Hurtful to me at this point that her and her team would go so far out of their way to try and make ME look bad at this stage though

"I figure if you're happy in your new relationship you should focus on that instead of trying to tear your ex bf down for something to do

"I know you're off tour and you need someone new to try and bury like Katy ETC but I'm not that guy, sorry. I won't allow it

"Please focus on the positive aspects of YOUR life because you've earned a great one

"God bless everyone have a beautiful day (sic)".

He also confirmed Taylor lent her vocals to part of his latest track and praised her lyrical abilities.

He tweeted, along with an upside down smiley face, after the report was confirmed: "And she sings on a little bit of it too. Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual (sic)."
