Country singer Taylor Swift reportedly encouraged her friend Selena Gomez to go on a date with One Direction star Niall Horan.
The 24-year-old 'Love Story' hitmaker decided to set her up with the Horan as Gomez, 21, was apparently having a hard time moving on from her former boyfriend Justin Bieber, who has been linked to several women ever since their break-up, reported Hollywood Life.
"Taylor is the one that set Niall and Selena up. Selena has been having such a hard time moving on from Justin, and Taylor hates seeing her sad," a source said.
