00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.439
Kala Rogashawk Media. Welcome to another
episode of Taylor Swift Today, your one

2
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:16.160
stop podcast for all the latest updates
on Taylor Swift's music, tours, movies,

3
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:20.239
and personal life. I'm your host, Annalie's idol, bringing you a

4
00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:24.640
comprehensive roundup of all things Taylor Swift. Let's dive into our first story.

5
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:30.760
Swifties across the globe are urging Kim
Kardashian to apologize to Taylor Swift after the

6
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:35.759
singer recently spoke out about their infamous
feud. This from BuzzFeed for those who

7
00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:39.520
missed it. Taylor sat down with
Time magazine this week as the outlet's Person

8
00:00:39.560 --> 00:00:44.200
of the Year, and during her
wide ranging conversation, she recalled going down

9
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:48.119
really, really hard in twenty sixteen
as a result of her feud with Kim

10
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:52.359
and Kanye West, who now legally
goes by Yee. Twenty sixteen drama began

11
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:57.479
when Yee, Kim's then husband released
a controversial lyric about Taylor in his song

12
00:00:57.600 --> 00:01:00.679
Famous. He sang, I feel
like me and Taylor might still have sex?

13
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:04.959
Why I made that bitch Famous,
an apparent reference to the two thousand

14
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:10.959
and nine MTV video Music Awards when
Ye interrupted Taylor on stage as she accepted

15
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:15.400
the award for Best Video by a
Female Artist and loudly declared that he felt

16
00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:19.400
Beyonce should have won instead. Ye
later publicly apologized to Taylor at the time

17
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:25.439
of the VMA's incident, explaining that
he'd been attempting to call out systemic racism

18
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:30.760
that exists within the music industry.
Taylor accepted his apology. The pair eventually

19
00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:36.480
reconciled publicly at the twenty fifteen VMAs. The following year saw Yee's infamous reference

20
00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:41.400
to Taylor in famous. The rapper
claimed that Taylor gave her blessings for him

21
00:01:41.439 --> 00:01:45.280
to release the lyric during an hour
long phone call they'd had, while Taylor's

22
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:49.239
camp firmly alleged that he'd never gotten
her permission to refer to her as that

23
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:55.519
bitch. What's more, Taylor's publicist
said that Yee's reason for calling was to

24
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:59.760
ask the singer to share his song
on her Twitter account. Kim then entered

25
00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:05.680
the conversation, telling GQ that Taylor
was lying and totally knew about Yee's lyric.

26
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:08.280
She wanted to all of a sudden
act like she didn't I swear.

27
00:02:08.400 --> 00:02:13.000
My husband gets so much shit for
things when he really was doing proper protocol

28
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:16.960
and even called to get it approved, Kim said. Taylor's representative fired back,

29
00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:22.759
saying Taylor has never denied that conversation
took place. It was on that

30
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.919
phone call that Kanye West also asked
her to release the song on her Twitter

31
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:31.919
account, which she declined to do. And then came Kim's infamous Snapchat spam,

32
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:37.159
which saw the mogul releasing video footage
of Taylor and Yee's phone call.

33
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.639
In the footage, it appeared as
though Taylor had approved Yee's lyric, with

34
00:02:40.719 --> 00:02:46.039
the singer saying yeah, I mean
go with whatever line you think is better.

35
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.879
It's obviously very tongue in cheek either
way, and I really appreciate you

36
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:54.319
telling me about it. That's really
nice. Taylor publicly blasted Kim and Yee

37
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:59.560
for secretly recording her on the phone
and then posting it to Snapchat. She

38
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:02.439
read rat that she was not made
aware of that bitch line and called the

39
00:03:02.599 --> 00:03:09.319
entire thing a character assassination. But
this didn't stop Internet users from absolutely berating

40
00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.840
Taylor, and her social media pages
were soon relentlessly flooded with snake emojis.

41
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:22.599
Ye later released a problematic music video
for Famous, which featured a naked tailor

42
00:03:22.680 --> 00:03:25.879
swift body double in bed with him
and a bunch of other celebrities. Kim

43
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:31.319
massively fueled the hate toward Taylor,
memorably tweeting hours before she released the snapchat

44
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:36.520
of the phone call wait, it's
legit National Snake Day. They have holidays

45
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:40.840
for everybody, I mean everything these
days, alongside a ton of snake emojis.

46
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:46.759
Meanwhile, Kim's sister Chloe Kardashian tweeted, Kim is a savage, don't

47
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:50.240
fuck with her Man Honey, and
her sister Kendall Jenner shared a bunch of

48
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.680
snake emojis in a now deleted post
two. Kendall also appeared to shade Taylor

49
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:58.599
on Instagram, sharing a photo of
herself with the caption tea Time. As

50
00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:01.960
soon as kim snapchat video were shared. As a result of the widespread vitriol,

51
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:09.039
Taylor essentially disappeared from the public eye. A year later, she reclaimed

52
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:13.599
the whole Snake brand by leaning into
it with the release of her album Reputation,

53
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:17.199
on which she references the drama with
Kim and Yee multiple times. However,

54
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:21.600
by twenty twenty, the tables had
turned as Taylor and Yee's full phone

55
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:27.439
call was shared online and the world
learned that Taylor had never actually approved the

56
00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:31.800
that bitch lyric at all. Reflecting
on the entire thing this week, during

57
00:04:31.839 --> 00:04:38.040
her interview with Time, Taylor called
out Kim and Yee respectively for publicly branding

58
00:04:38.079 --> 00:04:44.399
her a liar and illegally recording the
phone call. My career was taken away

59
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:47.720
from me, she said, you
have a fully manufactured frame job in an

60
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:53.399
illegally recorded phone call which Kim Kardashian
edited and then put out to say to

61
00:04:53.439 --> 00:04:58.000
everyone that I was a liar.
Taylor shared that took me down psychologically to

62
00:04:58.040 --> 00:05:00.920
a place I've never been before.
I moved to a foreign country. I

63
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:04.240
didn't leave a rental house for a
year. I was afraid to get on

64
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:08.879
phone calls. I pushed away most
people in my life because I didn't trust

65
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:13.519
anyone anymore. I went down really, really hard, she added, I

66
00:05:13.560 --> 00:05:15.759
thought that moment of backlash was going
to define me negatively for the rest of

67
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:21.519
my life. And now Taylor's fans
are urging Kim to apologize to the singer

68
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:29.120
and ironically flooding her Instagram comments with
snake emojis more Taylor in just a moment.

69
00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:39.079
After Taylor Swift was named Times twenty
twenty three Person of the Year,

70
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:44.120
The View co host Sunny Houston expressed
her surprise at Swift's selection for the honor,

71
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:49.279
considering the award's history. On Thursday's
episode, Houston acknowledged Swift's exceptional performance

72
00:05:49.319 --> 00:05:55.639
and philanthropic work in twenty twenty three. However, she felt other nominees,

73
00:05:55.759 --> 00:06:00.480
like the Hollywood Strikers and the Trump
Prosecutors were more in line with the ward's

74
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:05.240
traditional roots. The Trump Prosecutors may
be able to save our democracy, Houston

75
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:11.240
remarked. Whoopy Goldberg, however,
countered this viewpoint, reminding Houston of the

76
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:17.079
numerous discussions they've had about Swift's significant
contributions you have we have sat at this

77
00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:23.040
table and talked about this girl and
everything she's done. Goldberg, an Egott

78
00:06:23.079 --> 00:06:28.560
winning actress, emphasized. Houston clarified
that her comment wasn't meant to diminish Swift's

79
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:33.199
achievements. Alissa Farah Griffin, holding
the View's conservative seat, joined in to

80
00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:39.759
praise Swift, highlighting her phenomenal influence. She has the ability to make a

81
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:44.160
major impact for good in this country, and she always uses it when she

82
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:48.199
has the opportunity, Griffin said.
In other news, Taylor Swift showed up

83
00:06:48.199 --> 00:06:53.000
to support her longtime friend Emma Stone
at the premiere of Stone's new film,

84
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:59.079
Poor Things. Swift dressed elegantly in
a Charlotte Simone faux fur pennycoat over a

85
00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:03.000
black gown. Completed her look with
Giuseppe Zanatti open toe pumps and her signature

86
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:10.199
winged liner and red lip. Stone
at the Veuve Clico Polo Classic shared insights

87
00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:14.399
into their friendship, which dates back
to their teenage years. She revealed how

88
00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:18.199
Swift helped her secure tickets to the
Aris Tour concert in Arizona. I've known

89
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:21.560
her since we were seventeen and eighteen, so she hooked me up, which

90
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:26.839
was very nice because I know those
tickets are impossible to get, Stone said,

91
00:07:27.079 --> 00:07:32.720
adding She's a wonderful friend. Moving
on, Suki Waterhouse and boyfriend Robert

92
00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:40.600
Pattinson made headlines with their first appearance
together since announcing Waterhouse's pregnancy. They were

93
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:46.000
seen leaving the Poor Things premiere with
Swift heading to an after party. Waterhouse

94
00:07:46.040 --> 00:07:49.879
looked stunning in a sheer white top
with satin pants from Dish, while Pattinson

95
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:56.199
opted for a more casual look.
Waterhouse confirmed her pregnancy last month during a

96
00:07:56.240 --> 00:08:01.279
performance in Mexico City. I thought
I'd wear something barkley today because I thought

97
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:05.480
it might distract you from something else
that's going on, she said, gesturing

98
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:09.439
to her baby bump. The couple, who began dating in twenty eighteen,

99
00:08:09.920 --> 00:08:16.120
are reportedly thrilled about expanding their family. That's all for today's episode of Taylor
