Just in: Kim Kardashian has put an end to her supposed quarrel with Taylor Swift, declaring it something she has moved on from…
Kim Kardashian West spoke hesitantly about her “feud” with pop diva Taylor Swift following this year’s back and forth between Swift, Kardashian West, and her husband, Kanye West.
The reality actress and businesswoman, 35, appears on the cover of this week’s Billboard magazine, where she claims she and her husband bear no ill will toward Swift, 26.
The alleged feud started with West’s song “Famous” in February, then Swift’s response that she didn’t approve specific lyrics, followed by Kardashian West releasing recordings this summer that seemed to show Swift and West discussing the song prior to its release.
Swift responded to the recordings on Twitter, saying she didn’t know she was being recorded and that West never told her that he planned to refer to her as “that b—-” in the song. Her rep made it clear earlier in the year that Swift didn’t like the “misogynistic message” of that word.
Do we really need to talk about Taylor Swift? Kardashian West asked the Billboard reporter during the interview. “I’m so over it,” she said. “If it were up to Kanye, it would probably never have been released. He can handle it and has no hard feelings. He doesn’t even care. I simply wanted to protect my hubby. “I noticed him getting a lot of s—.” In fact, Kardashian West stated that she did not want to start any “feud,” but “it was like, ‘OK, here’s the reality.’ Done. Let us all go on. Kardashian West went on to discuss raising two children in the public glare. “Both times I was pregnant, I would genuinely pray, ‘I hope my baby can handle this life,” she said. “I believe their souls choose us to be their parents — that they choose this life. That’s my belief.”
