Taylor Swift was just named Time Magazine’s Person of the Year, and gave a rare, wide-ranging interview about just about everything — including the time Kim Kardashian leaked a phone call of Taylor and Kanye discussing his song “Famous.” The leak led to Taylor being “canceled” and prompted her to take a big break from the spotlight.
“Make no mistake, my career was taken away from me,” she told Time magazine. “You have a completely manufactured framework, in an illegally recorded phone call, that Kim Kardashian edited and then released to tell everyone that I was a liar. It took me psychologically to a place I had never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I never left a rental house.” “For a year. I was afraid to take phone calls. I pushed away most of the people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone anymore. I felt really frustrated, really hard.”
FYI, Kim He denied editing the footage Back in 2020 she also tweeted “To be clear, the only issue I’ve ever had about the situation is that Taylor lied through her publicist who stated that ‘Kanye never called to ask for permission…’ They spoke clearly so I let y’all “Look at that. “No one has ever denied that the word ‘bitch’ was used without her permission.”
Regardless, Taylor is back and better than ever reputationwhich happens to be a re-release of Taylor’s highly anticipated version.
“It’s a moment of female rage at being gaslighted by an entire social structure,” she said of the album. “I think a lot of people see that and they’re like sick snakes and strobe lights.”
As for Rep TVTaylor says the vault tracks will be “fire,” then jokes about her re-recordings, “I’m collecting Horcruxes. I’m collecting infinity stones. Gandalf’s voice is in my head every time I make a new one. For me, it’s a movie now.”
