Are Drake and Taylor Swift dating — or just trolling us?

What exactly is going on between Drake and Taylor Swift?

Don't get too excited: the Internet's new favorite celebrity couple are (almost certainly) not dating. But that isn't keeping social media from pretending they are.

The sourcing behind Drake and Taylor's rumored pairing is scarce at best, but the rumor mill started churning after Taylor attended Drake's 30th birthday party in Los Angeles last week — a function that, coincidentally, her ex-boyfriend John Mayer and ex-BFF Katy Perry both attended. Allegedly, he introduced her to his mom and friends at the party.

While TMZ claims that the pair aren't connected, and that Drizzy made the introduction specifically because Swift doesn't normally attend the rapper's parties, Page Six has a different account of the pair's "intimate flirting."

Since the sources in both pieces are anonymous spies, educated readers may not want to put their faith in either — and an "insider" report that emerged this week, that Drake and Taylor were collaborating on music together, seemed similarly suspect.

But Drake clearly is enjoying the rumors, posting a picture of him and Taylor (that appears to be from his birthday party) with the winking caption, "Is that velvet?"

In the meantime, the Internet is having a blast imagining Draylor as a couple.

Twitter users responded with shock and dismay.

They speculated about their future breakup albums about one another.

And naturally, they made plenty of Rihanna jokes.
