Wendy Williams Addresses Taylor Swift-Kim Kardashian Feud, Actually Makes Sense

Wendy Williams has spent the last few months taking jabs at Taylor Swift every chance she gets.


First, she called Swift a biatch. Then, she made fun of Swift’s body. Then, she mocked Taylor’s romance with Tom Hiddleston.



So now that Swift has sort of been outed as a liar by Kim Kardashian, Williams is teeing off on the singer, right?


She’s bringing her best insult game and really letting Swift have it, no?


Actually… no. Not quite.


As the celebrity gossip world knows by now, Kardashian dropped a bombshell via Snapchat on Sunday night, actually releasing videos that depict husband Kanye West talking to Swift about the song “Famous.”


In the footage, we hear Kanye telling his former foe about plans to reference the two of them having sex together in one verse, an idea Taylor sounds totally fine with.


She even thanks Kanye for letting her in on his creative process.


Here. In case you missed it, take a look at the viral video below:






Why is this such a big deal?


Because Swift previously claimed West never consulted her about the controversial lyrics in “Famous,” insisting she was blindsided by the misogynistic message of the track.


Kim has seemingly made Swift into a liar, although Taylor is correct in that the footage above does NOT include West asking her if she’s okay with him calling her a “bitch.”


And that’s where he main beef with the single lies.



In her analysis of the situation this morning, Williams acknowledged this final point, actually taking the side of Taylor Swift for a bit.


“OK, so what has been exposed is what Kanye has said all along,” she explained. “That he talked to Taylor about the song and that he was going to include her in it.


“What he didn’t tell her is that the last line, ‘I made the B-famous."”


Wendy then went on a tangent about how you can’t throw about this B-Word (or the N-Word) here and there and pick and choose when you get offended by it.


The talk show host does go on to point some blame in the direction of Swift, however.


“Taylor should of explained she didn’t know all of the lyrics…


“She totally acted like ‘I didn’t know anything about it. Kanye was wrong on every single level.’


“In the meantime Kanye sounded very nice on the phone. I think he only has two levels, though. Either high intense or low key, nice. There’s nothing in-between.”



In conclusion, Williams says the following:


“Sounds to me like they had a very lovely conversation. Taylor knew what he was going to say but it also sounds like Taylor has a right to be pissed because he ended up using, ‘I made the B famous."”


You know we’re in trouble when Wendy Williams is the person making the most sense.


It does seem as if Swift played up her ignorance of the song too much… but everyone is making it sound as if Kim completely outed Swift as a giant liar.


In reality, though, Kanye rapping that he made that “bitch famous” as a reference to Swift was clearly the most offensive aspect to the song.


And that is never addressed in the scandalous Snapchat video.


So aren’t we just back to where we started? Isn’t this much ado about nothing, as boring as that is for a gossip website to write?
