OK, so by now you’ve probably heard that Kanye West and Taylor Swift, who only so recently made a rather tenuous truce, are not on great terms again. If you’re unsure what in all happened, it goes a little something like this: yesterday at the Yeezy Season 3 show, Kanye debuted his new album, The Life of Pablo. One of the songs on the album is called “Famous” and it contains a bunch of offensive shit, but one in particular pertains to Taylor and goes, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous.” Not only is that line gross and corny, but Taylor did NOT approve of it.
“Kanye did not call for approval,” her rep tells Us, “but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric ‘I made that bitch famous.'”
Which, LOL at the absolute cluelessness of Kanye not caring that he’s being totally disgusting and disrespectful about Taylor – he’s still going to ask her to share his song with her fans. Like, really? I swear he really does have a number of mental illnesses because he’s so far off planet earth that I don’t know what to say about it.
Anyhow, now he’s claiming that Taylor not only knew about the lyrics in question but that she inspired them herself, because he’s fucking insane and for some reason, no one is putting a stop to his insanity.
I did not diss Taylor Swift and I’ve never dissed her…

I can’t be mad at Kanye because he made me famous! #FACTS

I mean, he went on and on from there talking about how we’re “demonizing real artists” and I just need this asshole to be properly evaluated and medicated so he can come back down to earth and face reality. All of his talent has been completely overshadowed by his ego and his EXTREMELY inflated sense of self and artistry. What a joke, and what a shame.
Like she wasn’t already famous when she won Video Of The Year, which happened right before Kanye jumped in.
With the way Taylor and her reps handle her persona Id be shocked if she was like LOL yeah call me a bitch and say you made me famous and ill share it publicly. In a behind the scenes way could she laugh that off? oh im sure. But theres zero chance her brand would agree that they are okay with any misogynistic message in public.
2nd I asked my wife ….. and she was cool with it? Your wife was also cool with getting pissed on in a sex tape so …
The only people more pointless than Kanye & Taylor are that overly fertile clan of money grubbing whores he married into.
