Reality Television star Kim Kardashian recently took to social media to jump to her husband Kanye West’s defence by posting videos proving that Taylor Swift gave him permission to rap about her on infamous The Life of Pablo single “Famous.”
These are the particular lines from the song which has led to a feud between the three: “For all my Southside niggas that know me best / I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / I made that bitch famous.”
Kardashian posted the video on Snapchat and also sent out a tweet drawing attention to this particular conflict between Swift and West which also became the plotline of a episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, the American reality television series that revolves around personal and professional lives of the Kardashian family.
The footage posted on Snapchat shows West taking permission from Swift to use a version of the line and Swift happily granting him and thanking him for taking approval. Although it’s still unclear whether Swift knew of the final version of the line.
The cold war between West and Swift broke out after West released “Famous” and the rest of The Life of Pablo in February, and Swift in a statement criticised West and claimed that the song was misogynistic. In turn, West had sent out a series of tweets falsifying her claims.
Recently, Kim had confirmed that the aforementioned conversation between West and Swift had been caught on camera but blocked by Swift’s legal team, says a report in theverge.com.
In the latest update regarding this controversy, Swift has now hit back at the reality TV star by posting a reply on her Instagram handle.
