Taylor Swift And Jake Gyllenhaal: Who Should They Date Next?

Now that Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal have gone their separate ways, the world is waiting to see what will happen next for these two in the romance department. MTV News spoke to some celebrity experts to see who they would match these two up with next.

"She dates a lot; he's a bit of a dark horse," PopEater's Rob Shuter told. "He's been around the Hollywood block too, but he's dated women before. He'll find a hot lady, a big star who's totally hot and that's a little bit older, and I think she'll find another Disney Channel type person. She's so random."

Those who follow celebrity romances for a living seem to agree that when these two go public with their next great romance, they should each stick to the kinds of people they're used to. "I feel Taylor should date a fellow musician, someone closer to her own age. That's why she suits a Jonas Brother well," said TooFab.com Managing Editor David Caplan. "And I think for Jake it would be just someone also on his level. I think Reese was best for him, because she was very grounded."

Perez Hilton noted that Taylor might have already had the perfect guy for her and that Jake should just have fun for a while. "She should give Taylor Lautner another try, because she said he was really good to her," he said. "So why not revisit that if he's willing to?"

Before they move forward, they should maybe look back at past mistakes. Perez noted that no one knows what went wrong except for them, while Shuter speculated that they felt compelled to date because they were introduced by Gwyneth Paltrow.

"I'm hearing that they drifted apart. They spent time together, they enjoyed being together, [but] there was no energy to it. There was no passion to it," he said. "Their lives took them to different coasts. They became pen pals."

" 'Broke up' implies they were in a full-on serious relationship," Caplan noted. "Which I doubt. I think what broke them up is that they're from two different worlds. There's an age difference involved. I think they're also at different stages in their lives. She's more about puppy-love romance and then Jake has been involved with serious actresses in serious relationships."
