Last month Kim, 35, claimed
Taylor “totally approved” and accused her of “playing the victim”. Taylor’s
statement added: “I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative,
one that I never asked to be part of, since 2009.”
Taylor Swift has called in
lawyers after a private phone conversation with Kanye West was leaked by the
rapper’s wife Kim Kardashian.
Kim claims the video
footage, which emerged over the weekend, showed the squeaky-clean pop star
approve controversial lyrics to Kanye’s song Famous.
However, Taylor, 26,
remains adamant she never heard the full track before its release in February
and did not realise she would be referred to as “that bitch”.
She said in a statement
yesterday: “You cannot approve a song that you haven’t heard.
“Being falsely painted as a
liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is
character assassination.”
Under Californian law, it
is illegal to record a phone call without both parties’ consent. If found to
have broken the law, the rapper could face up to three years in prison, as well
as fines and
civil damages.
However, Taylor was left
furious when the song was released.
Her representative said at
the time: “Kanye did not call for approval 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’.”
He rapped: “I feel like me
and Taylor might still have s*x, I made that bitch famous.”
Kanye, 39, is believed to
have been in a studio in Los Angeles when he called Taylor in January.
Kanye West and his big mouth
ReplyDeleteMessy something
ReplyDeleteKanye West cannot get the fame for Taylor Swift success. Kanye needs Taylor not the other way around. Taylor is one of the richest artist out there. Where is Kanye?
