Kim Kardashian West’s sexy pics weren’t the only thing she gave us with her GQ cover – she’s also dropping some dirt in the accompanying interview!
The story goes that before dropping The Life of Pablo, Kanye West called up former enemy-turned-friend, Taylor Swift, to get her approval for his line about her on “Famous.” On it, he raps:
“I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex
Why? I made that bitch famous”
Ye says they chatted for an hour and laughed over the line, but Taylor has spoken out against it, saying (via her team) that she never gave him approval, and the only convo they had on the phone was about her tweeting his album link. She also took the time to take a dig at Ye during her Grammy acceptance speech – which, according to Kim, was the biggest slap in the face of all.

“She totally approved that,” Kim tells GQ in her cover story. “She totally knew that that was coming out. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t. I swear, my husband gets so much shit for things [when] he really was doing proper protocol and even called to get it approved.”
“It was funny,” Kim added, “Because [on the call with Kanye, Taylor] said, ‘When I get on the Grammy red carpet, all the media is going to think that I’m so against this, and I’ll just laugh and say, ‘The joke’s on you, guys. I was in on it the whole time.’ And I’m like, wait, but [in] your Grammy speech, you completely dissed my husband just to play the victim again.”
Kim also notes that the is video proof of the call, and names Rick Rubin among the in-studio witnesses. You can read her full interview here, where she also discusses Blac Chyna marrying her brother Rob, “growing up” to change her political stance from Republican to Democrat, what was really in OJ’s bag and more.
Taylor has since responded with the following:
“Taylor does not hold anything against Kim Kardashian as she recognizes the pressure Kim must be under and that she is only repeating what she has been told by Kanye West. However, that does not change the fact that much of what Kim is saying is incorrect. Kanye West and Taylor only spoke once on the phone while she was on vacation with her family in January of 2016 and they have never spoken since. Taylor has never denied that conversation took place. It was on that phone call that Kanye West also asked her to release the song on her Twitter account, which she declined to do. Kanye West never told Taylor he was going to use the term, “that bitch” in referencing her. A song cannot be approved if it was never heard. Kanye West never played the song for Taylor Swift. Taylor heard it for the first time when everyone else did and was humiliated. Kim Kardashian’s claim that Taylor and her team were aware of being recorded is not true, and Taylor cannot understand why Kanye West, and now Kim Kardashian, will not just leave her alone.”
The shade!
