Taylor Swift is known for writing songs about her relationships with guys, and this week alone could provide her with plenty of inspiration.
Three weeks after she and Taylor Lautner were spotted together in Chicago – where he attended two of her concerts – the pair reunited in Los Angeles.
On Sunday, Swift, 19, accompanied her driver to LAX airport to pick up New Moon star Lautner, 17, before they headed straight to the Staples Center for an L.A. Kings hockey game.

Bella Swan may have given her heart to Edward Cullen, but it seems Twilight fans would've picked Jacob Black!
In AOL's Just So You Know Awards – an online poll in which the site's tween and teen readers voted for their favorite stars – New Moon's resident werewolf, Taylor Lautner, beat out immortal vampire Robert Pattinson by nabbing 56 percent of the votes in the categories of favorite male movie star and cool guy you'd like to hang out with.
The Twilight Saga's leading lady, Kristen Stewart, also proved a fan favorite, besting Harry Potter's Emma Watson and Transformers star Megan Fox to be named favorite female movie star.

Ice hockey? Sure. Tonsil hockey? Not so fast!
When it comes to Valentine's Day costar Taylor Lautner, Taylor Swift is choosing her words – and well-timed giggles – carefully.
The 19-year-old singer sat down with Ellen DeGeneres for an interview that is set to air Thursday, and found herself on the hot seat. After establishing that Swift shares scenes with the Twilight hottie in the upcoming romantic comedy, DeGeneres shows a picture of them kissing.
"What's happening there. Is that part of the movie?" asks the talkshow host. Swift confirms it's an on-screen smooch, but later gets chided for playing "coy" when pressed on whether Lautner is a "good kisser."

In the contest between Twilight heartthrobs Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner, it's clear where Taylor Swift's loyalty is. The singer, who has been spending quality time recently with Launter (who plays Jacob Black in the film series) tells CMT Radio's Cody Alan she's definitely on "team Jake."
When asked about rumors that the pair, who attended a hockey game together in L.A. on Sunday and had dinner with Swift's mom on Monday, are a couple, Swift played coy.
"I don't know, he's an amazing guy and we're really close … and ah … yep," she says on the radio show airing Thursday. "We're in a movie together and I am really excited about seeing it."

New Moon Director Wants to Make Fans Cry
Originally posted 10/27/2009 03:25PM
With New Moon ready to rise in theaters Nov. 20, director Chris Weitz wants it known: He is going to try to make you cry.
"We've tried our best to deliver on the romantic scenes in the film, and I would like to be able to produce more tears than any movie before, if possible," Weitz told PEOPLE at the Hollywood Film Festival's Hollywood Awards Monday of capturing moments in the Twilight saga's love triangle. "If we could only weigh them with some kind of cubic tear measure!"
Weitz, who took over the directing reigns from Catherine Hardwicke, admits delivering the passion, thrills and heartache in the hotly anticipated sequel wasn't easily done.
"I've handled it very badly, because I'm extremely envious of Rob [Pattinson] and Taylor [Lautner]," he said laughing. "What I've realized is that they have a very tough job – not just playing the characters that they play, but living lives that are now very much under scrutiny all the time."

Taylor Lautner Avoiding More Shirtless Roles?
Originally posted 10/27/2009 02:30PM
Say it ain't so, Twilighters: Taylor Lautner has been wooing fans to Team Jacob ever since stills from New Moon showed the 17-year-old sporting an impressive set of abs. But as the film's Nov. 20 release draws nearer, Lautner, who plays Jacob, reveals he may be finished with shirtless scenes.
"My motivation was the movie and the fans," MTV.com quotes him as telling Aceshowbiz.com about packing on 30 lbs. of muscle. "But I don't want to become known as just a body."
He added: "If I had to choose, I would never take my shirt off again in a movie, but I guess that's not very realistic. I certainly won't be asking to do it, though."
