Taylor Swift may have hinted about her long-standing feud with Kim Kardashian in her latest album Tortured Poets Department but the reality TV star seems to have moved on. Sources close to Kim have stated that she isn't sure why Taylor is still stuck on it.
The feud took place a few years back and got reignited with Taylor's new album The Tortured Poets Department. A source told People about Kim's response, “She’s over it and thinks Taylor should move on.” Kim “doesn’t get why (Taylor) keeps harping on it,” the source said. “It’s been years.”
In the track thanK you aIMee, Taylor sings about getting bullied. Fans have noted that the capital letters in the name of the song turn out to spell KIM. The lyrics go like, "All that time you were throwin' punches, it was all for nothin' / An our town, it look so small from way up here / Screamed 'Thank you, Aimee' to the night sky and the stars are stunnin' / 'Cause I can't forget the way you made me heal."
Kim's Instagram followers dropped after the release of the song and she lost around 500,000 followers since the release of the song.
Before the album release, Kim had 364.3 million Instagram followers. But after the release, her count dropped to 363.8 million unexpectedly. Comments on her latest post, showing her on vacation with Kourtney and Khloe, are full of references to the new song.
What's the feud about?
In 2009, Kim's ex-husband Kanye West interrupted Taylor's VMAs acceptance speech, claiming she didn't deserve her award but Beyonce did. Later, in his 2016 song Famous, Kanye rapped about Taylor, which she objected to, calling it misogynistic.
Kim defended Kanye on her show and posted clips of a phone call between Kanye and Taylor to prove that the singer had approved the song. However, another leaked video showed Kim and Kanye not giving Taylor full details about the song. Taylor referenced the incident in her 2017 album Reputation.
