Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift are never ever ever getting back together, but that doesn’t mean jokes about their relationship are going to stop anytime soon.

Entertainer Howie Mandel seized an opportunity to poke fun at the Scottish DJ while presenting him with a Future Icon award at Caesars Palace’s 50th anniversary gala on Saturday.

“That’s a nice suit. Who’s your tailor?” the “America’s Got Talent” judge quipped. “See what I did?”

While the crowd laughed, Harris smiled and told Mandel, “You got that prepared. You had that one ready.”

Harris brushed off the joke before giving a sweet acceptance speech.

“I don’t do this thing that often,” the DJ said. “I don’t receive these kind of awards very often either. It’s a great honor to be here.”

It seems there were no hard feelings, as the DJ later shared a picture of himself with Mandel laughing in the background. He also posed with legendary singer Tony Bennett on the red carpet.

Thank you Caesars for my Future Icon award!!!

Harris has largely remained out of breakup drama with Taylor Swift since revealing via Twitter that she helped co-write “This Is What You Came For.” Luckily for him, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West stepped in and gave us the celebrity feud of the century.
