I know everyone is thirsty for some non-coronavirus news so how about the latest on the Kanye/Kim Vs Taylor Swift beef which reignited recently? Oh come on – you know you want to…

The other day a video of the infamous 2006 phone call between Kanye West & Taylor Swift leaked, which showed Swift was telling the truth when she said she hadn’t consented to Kanye calling her a “bitch” in his song ‘Famous’ (he had said she was OK with it).
Swift acknowledged the video’s existence in an IG story and then directed everyone to donate to the crisis. Boom – done:
That should have been the end of it, but oh no no no, Kim Kardashian just had to fire back and accuse Taylor Swift of stealing headlines from coronavirus and some extra bullshit as well:
.@taylorswift13 has chosen to reignite an old exchange – that at this point in time feels very self-serving given the suffering millions of real victims are facing right now.

I didn’t feel the need to comment a few days ago, and I’m actually really embarrassed and mortified to be doing it right now, but because she continues to speak on it, I feel I’m left without a choice but to respond because she is actually lying.

To be clear, the only issue I ever had around the situation was that Taylor lied through her publicist who stated that “Kanye never called to ask for permission…” They clearly spoke so I let you all see that. Nobody ever denied the word “bitch” was used without her permission.

At the time when they spoke the song had not been fully written yet, but as everyone can see in the video, she manipulated the truth of their actual conversation in her statement when her team said she

“declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message.”
The lie was never about the word bitch, It was always whether there was a call or not and the tone of the conversation.

I never edited the footage (another lie) – I only posted a few clips on Snapchat to make my point and the full video that recently leaked doesn’t change the narrative.

To add, Kanye as an artist has every right to document his musical journey and process, just like she recently did through her documentary.

Kanye has documented the making of all of his albums for his personal archive, however has never released any of it for public consumption & the call between the two of them would have remained private or would have gone in the trash had she not lied & forced me to defend him.

This will be the last time I speak on this because honestly, nobody cares.
Sorry to bore you all with this. I know you are all dealing with more serious and important matters.

So to summarise: Taylor Swift objects to Kanye lyric calling her a bitch in 2016. Kanye & Kim release out of context edit that shows she approved it. Taylor Swift gets shat on for a few months. Now years later the truth comes out and shows Taylor Swift wasn’t lying, and THIS is Kim K’s response to it? I mean that’s like someone accusing you 10 years ago of shagging their boyfriend/girlfriend and then when they finally find some proof a decade later you say “oh what a time to reignite an old exchange!”. Should have just kept quiet and let Swift have the victory on this one.
Also gotta love the way she ends her thread with “nobody cares.” Well a) like I said we need some non-covid news in our lives and b) she actually means “I wish nobody cared because I really don’t wanna talk about it.”
Taylor 1 Kim 0 IMO. You can watch footage of the full 2016 phone call HERE.
