We all know that Kim Kardashian almost broke the internet for a second time, but this time it was not for her Paper Magazine interview photo. After the release of Kanye’s song, "Famous," listeners were left with confusion about the mention of Taylor Swift. She had claimed that Kanye did not have permission to reference her in his latest hit. Kim, being a good wife, decided to come to her husband’s rescue and post a video of the phone conversation Kanye had with Taylor talking about the song. Instantly after the video went up on her Snapchat, every news source was writing about the huge feud and almost every other celebrity had a thing or two to say after the big “scandal” was revealed. Unfortunately, while media was booming over Kanye and Kim vs. Taylor, there were much more important events going on.
