Kim Kardashian didn’t hold back in a recent interview where she
admitted her thoughts on Taylor Swift’s music,
and boldly hinted at her favorite SNL comedian… any guesses who?! Let’s get into it.
Kim Kardashian isn’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers from time to time, which might explain
why Swifties are in complete shock and wondering whether an olive branch between the two has been
bestowed. Or more so, whether Tay has ever accepted one from Kim - or if Kim listening
to and talking about Tay’s music is her way of extending one - because it was Tay that was hard
done by when it comes to the Kardashian/Wests - not the other way around. More on that in a bit.
During a recent interview on the Honestly With Bari Weiss podcast,
Kim didn’t shy away from any questions, including those of uncharted territory.
And that included what she really thinks about Taylor Swift’s music.
Before we go any further Swifties, we know that at the end of the day,
it doesn’t actually matter what Kim ultimately thinks of Taylor - one of the most talented
and successful musicians of our time’s - music. Buuuut considering the history between these two,
Kim commenting on Tay’s music is definitely VERY interesting.
During the interview, Bari fired off a series of questions to Kim,
and listeners around the world were all ears as soon as she was presented with, “What is
your favorite Taylor Swift album?” to which Kim answered honestly and truthfully. Take a listen…
“I mean I like all – I really like a lot of her songs. They're all super cute and catchy.
I’d have to look in my phone to get a name.”
We won’t go into full detail, but this surprising response comes
after Kim and Taylor’s years-long feud which started back in 2016
when Kim leaked footage of Taylor’s phone conversation with Kanye West.
In the cut up snippets that Kim released, Taylor was set up to appear to be fully aware of the
lyrics to his song “Famous” where he raps a lyric about getting Taylor into bed and also sings “I
made that b*tch famous.” As you know, Taylor and her team stood firm on the fact that Kanye did
not clear the final lyrics with Tay nor that he planned to call her a “b*tch” in his song.
This entire incident led to Taylor’s extended hiatus from
the spotlight following a media teardown and shattered reputation,
which eventually led to the release of her sixth studio album of the same name.
Then years later in 2020, a new clip was leaked that seemed to be the longer,
full conversation Kanye and Taylor had that day about “famous”,
which essentially proved that Taylor WAS telling the truth about the conversation
that went down and that she was NOT made aware of those specific lyrics. So yeah,
Kimye were basically caught out and the truth - aka Taylor’s version of events - prevailed.
However, now, the years have passed, and the dust has seemed to perhaps settle (as best it could).
And we now hear Kim telling the world that she likes a lot of Taylor’s songs. Let’s be real,
no surprises there if we’re honest, at least now Kim feels comfortable admitting it!
Besides, Kim would never shield her children from
the luxury of the joy that comes from listening to Taylor’s music,
as heard in the background of her IG stories earlier this year in the Netflix show Bridgerton.
Speaking of pure joy, Kim seems to have found all-new happiness in her personal life following
her SNL stint, and has been spotted looking pretty cozy with Pete Davidson on multiple accounts,
celebrating his birthday and even visiting him in his hometown of Staten Island.
Bari was brave enough to throw in a question during Kim’s interview
alluding to Pete, when she asked who her favorite SNL cast member is,
to which Kim teased back, “What a set up! You know who it is.”
Clearly no further interrogation was necessary!
For now, it looks like we’re going to have to wait a little longer for Kim to really
open up about her shocking romance with Pete… and when she does we’ll be sure to fill you in!
