Taylor Swift vs. Kim Kardashian: A Timeline of Their Public Feud
Reignite the Drama: Taylor Reignites Feud with Kim
On Friday, Taylor Swift once again brought her simmering feud with Kim Kardashian back into the spotlight. In the track "thank you aIMee" from her new album "The Tortured Poets Department," Swift appeared to reference the long-running dispute.
VMAs Controversy
The origins of the feud stem from the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards. Kanye West interrupted Swift's acceptance speech for Best Female Video to declare that Beyoncé deserved the award more. This sparked a public outcry and initiated a years-long period of tension between the two artists.
"Famous" and the Snake Emojis
In 2016, West's song "Famous" included the lyric "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex." Swift initially condemned the song, but later hinted that the two had made amends. However, Kardashian later released a recording of Swift giving her permission for the lyric, which led to backlash against Swift.
The "Thank You, Aimee Song" Reference
In "thank you aIMee," Swift sings, "I'll be the actress starring in your bad dreams." Some fans interpreted this as a direct jab at Kardashian, who has a history of starring in reality television shows.
The Feud Continues
The latest development in the feud suggests that the animosity between Swift and Kardashian has not abated over the years. It remains to be seen whether the release of "thank you aIMee" will further escalate the conflict or mark a new chapter in their relationship.
