Did Taylor Swift sneak in some not-so-subtle jabs at her ex Harry Styles during MTV's Video Music Awards Sunday?

When Styles and his One Direction bandmates presented the award for Best Pop Video to Swift's BFF Selena Gomez, Swift was caught on camera mouthing "Shut the f--- up" to Gomez, who was sitting next to her. (In fairness, the exclamation could have been because Swift was happily surprised that her friend won the award, but that's not stopping some people from speculating it was a message directed at Styles.)

Later in the evening, when Swift won the award for Best Female Video for her song "I Knew You Were Trouble," she dedicated the award "tothe person that inspired this song, and he knows exactly who he is."

"I got one of these!" the singer added, jabbing her just-acquired Moon Man in the general direction of One Direction, who were seated in the audience at the time. The camera immediately panned to Styles, who appeared stoic.

What do you think? Was Swift trying to stir things up with her ex?
