The paramilitary organization under Taylor Swift's leadership (known as S.Q.U.A.D.) has been heavily recruiting pretty much every celebrity who comes near a 1989 tour stop, but there's one who will never join them—not for all the hand-knit Polaroid sweaters (opens in new tab) in the world.

In an interview with NME (via (opens in new tab)Digital Spy (opens in new tab)), Rihanna said that she and ultra-likeable Swift (opens in new tab) are about as different as Skittles and the Large Hadron Collider, meaning that if they were to combine, it would result in a pile of sugar dust blowing in the wind.

"I don't think I would [join her on stage]. I just don't think it makes sense," the sneaker designer (opens in new tab) said. "I don't think our brands are the same: I don't think they match, I don't think our audiences are the same. In my mind she's a role model, I'm not."
