A few hours ago, Calvin Harris made the social network community boil when he unexpectedly mentioned his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift in a status line. The talented music producer happily announced the dream revenue of the hit This is what you came for because up to now, this is the only song released in 2016 to receive a double platinum certification in the UK.

“I am so lucky to have collaborated with some amazing people. Rihanna, Taylor Swift, thank you,” Calvin Harris wrote on Twitter, not forgetting to include the two female singers’ account names.

This action proves that the 36-year-old DJ indirectly acknowledged Taylor Swift's writing credit for This is what you came for.

Previously, Taylor Swift used another pseudonym to write the lyrics of the hit song because she didn't want her boyfriend to be accused of using her name to become famous. However, after being offended by Calvin Harris's lack of recognition, Taylor Swift posted that she was the lyricist for This is what you came for and criticized Calvin Harris for "biting the hand that feeds you."

This back and forth "verbal battle" on social networks has consumed a lot of ink in the press for a while.

However, the seemingly irreparable relationship between the former couple is now showing positive signs. Netizens have also started to pay attention to this issue and left comments: “What’s going on between Calvin Harris and Taylor? Are they friends now?” Another person was more optimistic, commenting: “I like how things are going. People are thanking each other and being nice to each other.”

After the breakup, while Calvin Harris was still busy with his music, Taylor Swift seemed to disappear from public events. Her only performance in 2016 was at the Formula 1 race in Texas in October. Here, she surprised everyone by performing the controversial song This is what you came for.
