Calvin Harris mentions his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift on Twitter. The Scottish DJ thanks the "Shake It Off" hitmaker for co-writing "This Is What You Came for" as it becomes the only song to be certified double platinum in the U.K. this year.
Calvin also thanks Rihanna, who is featured in the song. He calls them "incredible artists," tweeting, "I am blessed to work with incredible artists @rihanna @taylorswift13 thank you!!!" Neither RiRi nor Taylor has responded to Calvin's tweet.

Calvin's posting about Taylor receives mixed reactions from fans. Some fans are not happy with it, calling the "Blank Space" a "snake." One fan comments, "@CalvinHarris @rihanna @taylorswift13 Don't thank Nagini over there. She's only gonna diss you on her new album. She'll have a song called Calvin Jeans or some shady s**t." Another fan shares, "@CalvinHarris stop tagging a snake next to a legend thank you."
Back in July, Taylor's rep confirmed she had helped pen "This Is What You Came for" under the pseudonym Nils Sjoberg. Calvin later blasted the "Out of the Woods" songstress, "I wrote the music, produced the song, arranged it and cut the vocals though. And initially she wanted it kept secret, hence the pseudonym."
He added, "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."
