Raymond Hall/GC Images Taylor Swift (r.) and Karlie Kloss, above in SoHo in July, are pretty much inseparable, sources say.

Soon after the Daily Mail reported last week that Taylor Swift had invited supermodel Karlie Kloss to be her roommate in her Beverly Hills manse, the story mysteriously disappeared off the site. “Victoria’s Secret model Karlie, 22, moved in just a few weeks ago, with sources close to the singer telling me that the duo have since been “completely inseparable,” read the story. “Taylor and Karlie have grown very close.” The story also claimed that Taylor wanted a roommate to keep her company and Kloss “jumped at the chance” to stay with her pal. The Mail also proclaimed, “They do everything together, from visits to the gym to going on road trips.”

Although Swift and Kloss are seen together often, it wasn’t made clear why the story had to be deleted, although we hear perhaps Swift had “security concerns.” A rep for MailOnline told us: “The story originated in the Mail On Sunday. As they are a sister publication, we publish their content on the MailOnline. On Monday they asked us to take the story down, which we did.” But they still wouldn’t explain exactly why. Swift’s rep did not return a request for comment.

On the show, Kardashian said that baby North West frowns in photos because she doesn’t like the cameras. Like daddy.

‘BOOTY’-FUL J. LO

Can J. Lo’s tush give sagging sales a push? The 45-year-old Bronx-born singer rolled out her latest single, “Booty,” Wednesday, then tweeted an explanatory photo sure to move a few units. The new tune, featuring rapper Pitbull, cuts to the chase with lyrics like “Big, big booty — What you got a big booty.” J.Lo’s eighth studio album could use a boost.

WHEELER: CURSE TALK IS OFF BASE

Mets ace Zack Wheeler isn’t concerned that a pitching curse has swept the Big Apple. On Tuesday, Mets pitcher Jacob deGrom joined Matt Harvey on the Queens team’s injured list. Things aren’t much better in the Bronx, where Yankee hurlers CC Sabathia, Masahiro Tanaka, Ivan Nova and Michael Pineda have spent significant time out while hurt. But while visiting Cohen’s Children’s Hospital Wednesday, Wheeler shook off suggestions of a curse. “No, that’s dumb,” the 24-year-old right-hander said dismissively. Let’s hope he’s right.
