Taylor Swift, Harry Styles Party Together After RFK Center Awards
Taylor Swift accepted an award from the Kennedy family on Monday evening, but her ex-boyfriend Conor Kennedy was apparently the last thing on her mind.
The 22-year-old was in New York City to receive the Ripple of Hope Award from the Robert F. Kennedy Center for Justice and Human Rights. The award "lauds leaders of the international business, entertainment, and activist communities who demonstrate commitment to social change," according to a report from USA Today.
Swift posed with her award and several members of the Kennedy family. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Conor Kennedy's father, was also present along with his girlfriend, actress Cheryl Hines. But Swift's former flame Conor was nowhere in sight during the festivities.
After the event, however, Swift forgot all about the Kennedy family and went out to party with her current love interest, One Direction band member Harry Styles, USA Today reported.
Things have heated up quickly for Swift and Styles over the last couple of weeks. Photographers caught the country music superstar taking a romantic stroll around New York City's Central Park on Sunday with Styles, fueling speculation that they are in fact an item.

The couple looked casual as they walked the park's grounds and enjoyed one another's company. Swift wore jeans with a plum coat and bright yellow scarf, while Styles paired his jeans with a denim shirt, a green coat and a dark beanie on his head.
Rumblings of a romance between the couple started to make the rounds in tabloids and gossip magazines after they were spotted together on the set of "The X Factor" last month.
Co-host Mario Lopez, who shares his duties with co-host Khloe Kardashian, gave the audience the scoop about Swift and Styles' time together, which he witnessed first hand during rehearsals for the "X Factor" live taping.
"Taylor Swift and Harry from One Direction — you heard it here first. [They're] officially hanging out, I can say that much," Lopez said.
