Another day, another celebrity reacts to Kanye West’s controversial lyrics about America’s sweetheart, Taylor Swift. One celeb in specific is none other than Swift’s best friend, Selena Gomez. “Everybody has their own opinion,” Gomez shared on SiriusXM Hits 1. “At the end of the day, you can just do what you do.” As for West’s claims that he made the “Shake It Off” singer a superstar, she added, “She’s killing it and she kind of always has been.”
Even Swift’s younger brother, Austin Swift chimed in on the beef, by posting a video of himself throwing out a pair of Yeezy sneakers in the trash. “Getting a head start on some spring cleaning,” he wrote on Instagram. “Here we go.”
As previously reported on Friday, Feb. 12, West dropped some new music from his new album “T.L.O.P.” during his appearance at New York Fashion Week. Since then, his name dropping antics have caused quite the blow back. “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why, I made that b**** famous / God damn / I made that b**** famous,” he rapped on the song, referring to Swift.
Meanwhile, the fashion designer and rapper assured fans he got the green light from Swift before debuting the track. “She thought it was funny,” he tweeted. However, according to Swift’s team, the pop star cautioned Yeezy about releasing the “diss track.” “Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message,” her rep said in a statement to E! News on Thursday, Feb. 11. “Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, ‘I made that b**** famous.'”
Of course, Swift is just one of many celebs at the receiving end of one of West’s wild rants. Earlier this month, he had it out with Wiz Khalifa and Amber Rose. Rose is ex-girlfriend to them both, but shares a son with Khalifa. Does this man ever rest with the ridicule?
