The beef with Kanye West and Taylor Swift continues. Sources say she is taking legal action against him after his latest slander campaign.
Athlon Sports is reporting that Taylor Swift is considering taking her grievances with Kanye West to a court of law. Earlier this week, Ye took to X, formerly Twitter, and had another brain dump regarding why he has yet to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime Show. “I never was allowed to do the Super Bowl because of 3 moments,” Ye wrote. “George Bush don’t care about black people. The Taylor Swift movement moment. Wearing a MAGA hat. How it feel to be the best living and blocked from the main stage because of being ahead of my time.” Of course, this assumption that Taylor Swift is somehow blocking his big moment soon picked up traction.
The Daily Mail spoke to a source that is said to be close to the “Shake It Off” singer and claims that she is considering taking legal action against Kanye West. “This time he has gone too far,” the source said. “His claims are not just false they are defamatory. This isn’t just [West] gossiping. This is [West] sexually harassing a woman, defaming her and intending to cause harm to her and to her career.” The unidentified contact also says that her boyfriend Travis Kelce also wants to confront [Ye] “man to man.”
The Taylor Swift and Kanye story dates back to the 2009 MTV Music Video Awards when West interrupted her acceptance speech and proclaimed that it should have gone to Beyoncé. “Yo, Taylor, I’m really happy for you. I’mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time!” Since then the two have gone on to make amends but it didn’t last very long.
Taylor Swift has yet to formally speak on the matter.
