Well it all dates back to the 2009 MTV Video Music awards. Taylor Lautner presented the 'award heard round the world': "award for best female video goes to Taylor Swift". Taylor is wholeheartedly shocked and honored for this award, one that had many qualified competitors. At this time, me along with many others, were rooting for innocent Taylor Swift (you know, when she was still a country singer). She went on to accept her award and began her humbled acceptance speech. Out of nowhere Kanye West enters the scene.
The rest, is history. Literally.
Kanye then proclaims the most iconic lines of 2009. "Taylor, I'm really happy for you, and I'm gonna let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time." Then he Kayne shrugs and calls it a day. Even though I definitely agree with Kanye, I mean, "Single Ladies" inspired remakes and dances that are even popular, 7 years later. Even Michelle Obama and James Corden performed a snip bit of it in Corden's latest episode of Carpool Karaoke.
Regardless, the world heavily sympathized with Taylor, Kanye ruined her moment. Taylor awkwardly stood there, humiliated in her steps. She was the victim. At 20 years old, we all felt bad for her. 7 years later, the tables have turned.
Kanye West's song "Famous" came out. And yet again, a Kanye line took the world by storm. The song's lyrics "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that b*tch famous" seemingly attacked "victim" Taylor Swift. As the story unfolded Kanye revealed that him and Taylor had a conversation where she agreed to the line and found it a compliment. Taylor took the opportunity to play the victim; however, this time around it didn't work out so well. She claimed Kanye never had called her or asked her permission. Which honestly he doesn't have to do, most rappers don't call and ask for permission.
Well this went on for quite some time. As Kanye was blamed for lying and tearing this poor girl down once again.
That was until "no talent" (puh-lease) Kim Kardashian West swooped in with her A1 private eye investigation and cleared her husband's name.
Sunday night - 7/17/16, Kim released the Snap Chat story of the century. She revealed the conversation of Taylor thanking Kanye for calling and even referring to Kanye's line as a "compliment". Apparently she found the sex line okay, but calling her a b*tch crossed the line. Which is pretty ironic because people would generally be offended by the whole thing, or fine with it, not just parts and pieces.
Also, Taylor famously uses her breakups as her hit singles, where her ex-boyfriend is generally torn to shreds. She even slut shamed Joe Jonas' girlfriend in her 2010 hit 'Better Than Revenge'.
Ultimately, Taylor is now exposed as a liar. Her innocent charm has been demolished as her sneaky, or Kim's favorite way to describe Taylor- snake like, manner has come out.
What I have learned from this whole encounter is that Kim needs a job in the FBI, at least an interview! I mean come on, she single handedly exposed Taylorgate.
