Swift says footage of her infamous 2016 call with
Kanye West exonerates her longstanding claim that he didn’t pre-warn her of the lyric: ‘I made that bitch famous’
One of celebrity’s longest-running but assumed dormant feuds has once again reared its head.
Kim Kardashian West has accused
Taylor Swift of lying after the pop star claimed that newly leaked footage of her infamous 2016 phone call with Kanye West exonerated her longstanding claim that he did not tell her that he planned to rap “I made that bitch famous” about her on his 2016 single, Famous.
That line does not appear in the 20-minute tape of the call – previously only seen in snippets leaked by Kardashian West in 2016 – in which West and Swift debate whether he should sing “I feel like Taylor Swift might owe me sex” or “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex”. After he repeats the lyrics, she expresses her relief: “I thought it was going to be like, ‘That stupid, dumb bitch’,” she tells West. “But it’s not.”
