For a long, hot minute Taylor Swift was stuck in daily headlines like stubborn toilet paper on a shoe.
Now she’s squirreled away, allegedly in hiding with paramour Travis Kelce, and refusing to accept calls, texts or visits from her most loyal lady friends.
For a woman who would seemingly rather die than forgo the constant drumbeat of pop publicity, it’s a surprising move.
The fallout between Taylor Swift and her onetime best friend Karlie Kloss reportedly started when the model took advantage of the singer’s generous hospitality.
Swift has previously said that Kloss had her very own room, complete with her favorite snack foods at the ready, at the singer’s $47.7 million Tribeca compound. But an insider told The Post that Swift was “furious” when Kloss invited friends over to the home without first getting approval.
Although both camps deny this happened, a source admits that the two had a tiff that turned into “something crazy.”

“Taylor got upset over something crazy and then she just alienated Karlie,” she told The Post. Kloss’ rep denies this.
Sources say this is just another example of Swift, whose new album, “Lover,” is out Aug. 23, overreacting to a situation.
In fact, Swift turned down invites to both of Kloss’ wedding ceremonies when she married her long-term boyfriend last year, according to a source close to both camps. However, Kloss’ rep says Swift was unable to attend due to prior commitments.
“She always does the same thing: She trips up when she goes further than she needed to,” said a source in regards to Scooter Braun, who’s the latest to be deemed one of Swift’s enemies, after he purchased Big Machine Records, the singer’s former label, for a reported $500 million in June.
Swift, 29, took to Tumblr to call the sale, which included the master recordings from her first six albums, her “worst case scenario” — and accuse Braun, who manages Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande and Demi Lovato, of “incessant, manipulative” bullying.

Furthermore, she claimed that she learned of the deal only when it was announced and that she “wasn’t given an opportunity to buy” back her music from Big Machine.
But both Scott Borchetta, founder of Big Machine, and Braun’s wife, Yael, contradicted this.
Yael posted on Instagram a message to Swift, reading in part: “You were given the opportunity to own your masters, you passed . . . Your dad is a shareholder and was notified and Borchetta personally told you before this came out.”

Said a source of Swift: “She didn’t need to say that she didn’t get told about the deal, when there is clear proof and text messages sent to her. She did the same thing about the Kim K-and-Kanye row [and then] Kim just published the conversation online.”
Indeed, in 2016, Swift lashed out about the Kanye West song “Famous,” which includes the lyrics, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that b—h famous.”
But Kardashian then posted a Snapchat video of West on the phone with Swift.
Swift’s representative did not respond to requests for comment. Kloss’ rep says the two are still friends.
SCOOTER BRAUN JOKES ABOUT TAYLOR SWIFT BEEF
“She became famous very young,” aid a music executive in the know. “And the behavior that we might accept from a young girl — stamping your feet, acting petulant — no longer stands when you’re a grown woman.”
In her cover story for the September issue of Vogue, soon to be on newsstands, Swift speaks out about public reaction to her feud with West and Kardashian, which led to a social media campaign to “cancel” her.

“I don’t think there are that many people who can actually understand what it’s like to have millions of people hate you,” she said. “When you say someone is canceled, it’s not a TV show. It’s a human being. You’re sending mass amounts of messaging to this person to either shut up, disappear, or it could also be perceived as, Kill yourself.”
As a result, she said, “I realized I needed to restructure my life because it felt completely out of control.”

Over the years, Swift, who released her self-titled debut album at age 16, has changed her public persona: from sweet kid to glam country star to relatable girl to ’50s-inspired ingenue to ’80s pop star to vixen and more.
Her latest reinvention, for “Lover,” finds the singer — who has been dating British actor Joe Alwyn for three years — seemingly in love with love, amid a wash of rainbows.
“It’s difficult to tell who she really is — does she even know who she is?” asked one top music insider.

“She can act like poor little rich girl, when she has no need to,” said one source of the singer who owns $84 million in real estate and three planes.
One person who has worked closely with Swift described her to The Post as “a pill,” while another who was part of the recent Vogue cover shoot called her “heavenly to work with.”
One thing insiders seem to agree on is that, with Swift, everything is personal — and, in her anger, she sometimes has tunnel vision.
