Taylor Swift is not happy with Kim and Kanye
The "Famous" saga rolls onwards: this latest chapter sees Taylor Swift decry Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's recent "character assassination".
"Famous" features on Kanye's latest LP The Life Of Pablo and contains the controversial line: "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous..."
It drew a lot of criticism on first airing, but Kanye said then that Swift not only "gave her blessings" in an hour-long phone call, but the line was actually "something Taylor came up with".
Swift's people denied that she'd okayed the song - and then all went quiet(ish).
Overnight, Kardashian uploaded clips of that hour-long call to Snapchat - Kanye was apparently filming a documentary, hence the film evidence.
While it does appear that Swift was aware and okay-ish with the first part of the line ("might still have sex..."), the video doesn't bring up the "made that bitch famous" part.
Read her response, where she describes the actions as "character assassination", and then check out the phone call/Snapchat story after.
