Taylor Swift is seen out in Manhattan on Monday.

If it was an awkward moment Monday night in New York for Taylor Swift, she didn't show it.

The singer superstar mixed and mingled with some Kennedy family members as she was given the RFK Center's Ripple of Hope Award, which "lauds leaders of the international business, entertainment, and activist communities who demonstrate commitment to social change," according to the center.

She posed with Rory and Kerry Kennedy after being given the statuette. And ex-boyfriend Conor Kennedy's dad, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was on hand with girlfriend Cheryl Hines. Conor did not attend, reports Huffington Post.

But once Swift was done she zipped out and met up with her supposed new sweetie, One Direction's Harry Styles.

JustJared has photos of the couple holding hands as they arrived at her hotel after his concert at Madison Square Garden.

Rory Kennedy, Taylor Swift, Kerry Kennedy, and Alec Baldwin pose onstage at the 2012 Ripple Of Hope Gala at The New York Marriott Marquis on Monday.
