How Taylor Swift’s 2016 feud with Kim Kardashian made her NBA Finals greeting with Kylie Jenner unexpected
The viral moment attracted additional attention because of Taylor Swift’s long-running public feud with Kylie Jenner’s sister, Kim Kardashian. The feud began at the 2009 MTV VMAs when Kanye West interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech.
The conflict peaked in 2016 with West’s song “Famous,” which insulted Swift and claimed he made her famous. The dispute intensified later that year after Kardashian shared clips of a phone conversation between Swift and West regarding the aforementioned song.
After the song’s release, Kardashian’s edited clips led many people to believe Swift had approved the lyric. Swift later disputed that claim, saying she had never heard the song in full and had not given West permission to use the lyric in question.
In 2020, the release of the full conversation renewed public scrutiny of the dispute and supported Swift’s position that she had objected to aspects of the lyric.
The fallout became one of the most widely discussed celebrity feuds of the past decade. Kardashian’s sisters, including Jenner, publicly supported Kardashian and West during the controversy.
As a result, many fans were surprised to see Swift and Jenner sharing a friendly embrace at Madison Square Garden. Despite the history surrounding Swift’s dispute with Kardashian, the pair’s interaction appeared cordial as they celebrated the Knicks’ Game 4 victory.
