Taylor Swift has poured cold water over suggestions she is romantically involved with Ed Sheeran.

The pair, who have collaborated in the past, are often linked together - but it seems their relationship is purely a professional one.

Speaking to We Love Pop, Swift revealed that their conversations usually end up discussing music and life questions - not romance. She said:

"We mostly just text: 'Hey pal! Miss you dude!' And it somehow ends up turning into a conversation about the meaning of life and music."

The 'Red' star meanwhile recently revealed a somewhat surprising desire to collaborate with US rapper Eminem.

However, any potential team-up would see Swift sing a chorus and not rap. Watch Taylor Swift perform at the 2013 BRITs below:
