Kim Kardashian was criticized after Taylor Swift said she was devastated by the scandal of both of them in 2016.

On Kim Kardashian’s social media account, fans continuously commented on the snake icon, angry about the incident seven years ago, writing: “Apologize to Taylor”, “What you did has severely affected Taylor’s spirit. Your words and actions have consequences, fix it and you will be respected”.

The singer’s fans were upset after Time published an article honoring her as Person of the Year on December 6. In it, Taylor talked about the dark period: “My career was taken away. I have never had such a mental breakdown. I moved to another country, did not leave my rented house for a year, was afraid to talk on the phone. I avoided most people because I no longer trusted anyone”.

Taylor added that over the years, she learned her lesson: “There’s no point in trying to defeat the enemy. Trash always sorts itself out.”

The incident that broke Taylor involved Kanye West and Kim Kardashian – the rapper’s wife at the time. In the song Famous (2016), Kanye wrote: “I feel like me and Taylor could have sex. Why? Because I made that bitch famous.” The rapper said Taylor agreed to the lyrics, but she denied it.

Kim later released a video of a 25-minute conversation between the two artists. In the video, the rapper discussed the lyrics with Taylor but did not mention the phrase “bitch”. She was happy to hear the lyrics and thought it was not offensive, telling Kanye to send the finished song for consideration. The lyrics about her in Famous when released were different from the content of the two exchanges, which upset Taylor.

The singer said Kim illegally recorded the conversation. In California, it is illegal to record or eavesdrop without the consent of the participants in the conversation. According to Taylor, the recording was edited and staged by Kim, making her out to be a liar. After the incident, for a while the media and audience criticized Taylor as a snake, implying a sinister personality.

According to Rolling Stone in September 2019, Kanye and his wife lived a double life with the singer, always flattering her in private but then speaking ill of her in public. In the same year, on the program Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Kim said she had overcome the scandal and no longer hated Taylor. Three years later, the businesswoman said she loved the singer’s music: “I like a lot of her songs. They’re all cute and catchy.”
