Taylor Swift is seen for first time as fans brand her a snake after furious Twitter rant with ex Calvin Harris

Celebrities including Katy Perry also wade in

SHE still has yet to comment, but Taylor Swift has been seen for the first time in public since ex-boyfriend Calvin Harris launched a major online attack against her.

The internet reacted in kind to the Scottish DJ's outburst with the majority seeming to back the Scottish DJ.

The hashtag “TaylorSwiftIsOver” was soon shooting up to the top of social media trending topics and the 26-year-old’s Instagram comments were flooded with green snake emojis.

Calvin threw the first stone after Tay-Tay revealed that she had secretly penned his recent massive hit, This Is What You Came For, featuring Rihanna.

Tweeting a link to an article, he confirmed: “And she sings on a little bit of it too. Amazing lyric writer and she smashed it as usual.

“I wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut the vocals though. And initially she wanted it kept secret, hence the pseudonym.”

However once the floodgates had been opened, that wasn’t all he had to say on the matter.

Calvin continued in a series of follow up tweets: “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.”

Signing off, he concluded: “God bless everyone have beautiful day.”

Taylor and Calvin split last month after deciding to call time on their 15 month relationship.

Within weeks she had embarked on a very full on and very public romance with actor Tom Hiddleston.

When speaking about “Katy” he was referring to singer Katy Perry.

Taylor and Katy infamously have a long-standing feud.

They are believed to have fallen out after Taylor claimed she the Roar singer stole some of her back up dancers back in 2014.

The following year Taylor appeared to address the feud in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine.

She said: "For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not. She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, 'Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?'

"She did something so horrible, I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies.' And it wasn't even about a guy!"

Less than impressed Katy - again not naming Taylor - seemed to reference it as she compared her to bully Regina George in Mean Girls.

She tweeted: "Watch out for the Regina George in sheep's clothing..."

Unable to refuse having a pop following Calvin’s open invitation, Katy shared a gif of Hilary Clinton pulling a ‘I told you so’ type face.

And if that wasn’t enough she also retweeted one of her own tweets from 2015 that read: “Time, the ultimate truth teller”.
