Kim Kardashian recently added fuel to her ongoing feud with Taylor Swift by posting a throwback photo with Karlie Kloss, Swift’s former best friend. The photo was shared on Kardashian’s Instagram Stories while she was wishing Derek Blasberg a happy birthday, causing Swift’s fans to react strongly online. This move by Kardashian came shortly after Swift released a song called “thanK you aIMee,” which many believed to be a veiled reference to Kardashian with the letters K-I-M capitalized.
The feud between Kardashian and Swift began in 2016 when Kardashian’s then-husband Kanye West mentioned Swift in his song “Famous.” Swift later expressed her displeasure with being called a derogatory term in the song, leading to Kardashian releasing a phone call where it appeared Swift gave West permission to mention her in the lyrics. This incident resulted in public backlash against Swift, with many labeling her as a liar and a snake. The drama escalated further with Kloss being asked in an interview about Kardashian’s character, causing speculation about Kloss’s loyalty to Swift.
In the years following the initial feud, Swift has subtly shaded Kardashian multiple times in her music and interviews. Kloss, who was once close friends with Swift, faced backlash for her perceived association with Scooter Braun, who acquired Swift’s master recordings in a high-profile deal. Swift expressed her disappointment in the situation, and Kloss allegedly added to the controversy by liking and then unliking tweets criticizing Swift’s reaction. The relationship between Kloss and Swift seemed to deteriorate further when Swift missed Kloss’s weddings to Joshua Kushner.
Fans have speculated about the true nature of the rift between Swift and Kloss, with some suggesting that Swift used Kardashian as a “red herring” for Kloss in her song. The mention of “aIMee” was believed by some to be a reference to Karlie, as the two names rhyme. This theory suggests that Swift intentionally involved Kardashian in the drama to deflect attention from Kloss, potentially hinting at a more significant issue between Swift and her former best friend. The intricate dynamics between the three women have generated significant interest and speculation among fans and the media.
Despite the ongoing drama and tension between Kardashian, Swift, and Kloss, the specifics of their feud and relationships remain largely unclear. The public nature of their interactions and the coded messages in Swift’s music have led to continued interest and speculation about the dynamics between the three women. As the saga continues to unfold, fans and observers eagerly await any further developments or revelations that may shed light on the true nature of the relationships between Kardashian, Swift, and Kloss.
