Just in case you were wondering, Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are NOT married. As we told you, they sparked rumors of secret nuptials earlier this month when she was photographed wearing what appeared to be a diamond wedding band with her engagement ring. Now an inside source is ending the speculation.

“Gwen & Blake did not get married,” the insider said. “They’re still really happy and engaged and doing well. Nothing has changed in their relationship. They’re keeping any wedding details and plans tight lipped. Even her closest friends don’t know many details on anything involving the wedding.”

The musicians get great joy from surprises, which is why they’re keeping their plans a secret. “They seem to want everything to be a surprise, but they can’t wait to really be husband and wife,” the source explained. “They were literally laughing over the rumors that they did in fact get married. They both like to mess with everyone at times and that’s really all it was.”

Taylor Swift fans have been doing a lot of speculating as to when she’ll release her next re-recorded album, and what it will be. Well, they now have their answer.

While many guessed the new version of “1989” would be her next release, Taylor just announced she’ll drop “Red (Taylor’s Version)” on November 19^th. Not only that, she shared that the new version will contain “all 30 songs that were meant to go on ‘Red,’” noting that one song is “10 minutes long.”

“Musically and lyrically, Red resembled a heartbroken person,” she writes. “It was all over the place, a fractured mosaic of feelings that somehow all fit together in the end.” She adds, “I’m not sure if it was pouring my thoughts into this album, hearing thousands of your voices sing the lyrics back to me in passionate solidarity, or if it was simply time, but something was healed along the way.” Check out her complete post below:

• As for that heartbreak, many believe the album was largely inspired by her relationship and breakup with Jake Gyllenhaal, and with the announcement of the “Red” re-release, Jake’s name was quickly trending on Twitter, with one person suggesting everyon “pray” for him because it’s gonna be a “rough year.”  Check out some of the posts below:
• ONE MORE THING! Taylor took to social media to pay tribute to her dad on Father’s Day.  “Happy Father’s Day to all the dads but mostly mine,” she writes, “who called me yesterday to remind me he still has guitar picks from the Red Tour, ‘if they’re needed’.”
