The Taylor Swift-Kanye West saga has so many twists it could fill a season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. It all started with that infamous 2016 phone call where Kanye West supposedly got Taylor’s approval for a controversial lyric. But did she really? Fast forward, and suddenly an alleged phone recording surfaces, sparking one of pop culture’s biggest he-said-she-said battles.
If true, it could’ve crushed Swift’s squeaky-clean image, throwing her career into chaos. Instead, it’s Kanye who ends up taking most of the heat. This drama became the ultimate plot twist, with fans picking sides, and Taylor Swift’s empire only grew stronger, but it was almost the call that destroyed it all.
The Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift Feud: A Timeline of Drama, Betrayal, and Comebacks
The feud between Kim Kardashian and Taylor Swift’s one for the ages, and it almost hit a breaking point with the release of Kanye West’s Famous track. In 2016, Kardashian released an alleged phone recording between Swift and West, and the line of her physical relationship set off a media storm. It says,
I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex.
This moment had the power to destroy Swift’s career—and almost did. When West dropped the track, Swift was quick to defend herself. She claimed she was never informed about the specific lyric, especially not the one where Kanye called her ‘that bitch.’ The video Kim posted to Snapchat showed Swift hearing about the s*x line, but not the infamous “I made that bitch famous” part, sparking massive outrage. Fans, however, jumped on Kim’s side initially, with the hashtag #KimExposedTaylorParty trending everywhere.
Swift didn’t take it lightly. She fought back, stating she was blindsided by the final lyrics. Years later, the full phone call leaked online, backing her claims that West hadn’t told her everything. The fallout from this feud dragged on for years, with Swift even referencing it in her Look What You Made Me Do music video, reclaiming the snake emoji used against her.
In her TIME Person of the Year interview, Swift said the entire ordeal felt like “a career death” and that it pushed her into isolation. While Swift found ways to reclaim her narrative, the feud left deep scars. Even so, Kim is reportedly over it, and her camp claims Taylor Swift should move on. Looks like this drama won’t fade anytime soon.
