Kim Kardashian West took to Snapchat on Sunday to defend her husband Kanye West in his ongoing feud with Taylor Swift, proving that the “Blank Space” singer had lied about not approving controversial lyrics in the song “Famous.”
Swift had previously intimated that she did not approve the lyrics “For all my Southside n—as that know me best / I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / I made that b—- famous,” and had called them “misogynistic.”
But in the series of videos, West is seen to recite out loud some of the lyrics to the song to Swift over the phone. Swift is then heard thanking West and described the lyric of them having sex as a “compliment.”
However, the video doesn’t show West reading out the line “I made that b— famous,’ so it is unclear whether Swift knew about it or approved that particular lyric.
This shows the conversation Taylor & Kanye had, but where is the agreement? pic.twitter.com/bxPWg78dji

Swift took to Twitter later on Sunday to defend herself. Reiterating that West never told her about the “that b—” line, a clearly angry Swift said that she wanted to like the song and wanted to be supportive but couldn’t approve a song she had never heard. She described the release of the Snapchat video as a “character assassination.”
