In the world of celebrity feuds and drama, it’s not uncommon for one star to take aim at another. However, when it comes to Taylor Swift, her aim is always on point. In her latest music video for her hit song “Look What You Made Me Do,” Swift takes aim at none other than Kourtney Kardashian.
The video, which was released on August 27th, has already broken records with over 43 million views in just 24 hours. But it’s not just the impressive numbers that have people talking, it’s the subtle (and not so subtle) digs at her fellow celebrities. And one of the most talked about moments is when Swift takes aim at Kardashian.
In the video, Swift is seen sitting on a throne surrounded by snakes, a symbol that has been associated with her since her feud with Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. But it’s not just the snakes that have people talking, it’s the fact that Swift is wearing a shirt with the names of her friends, including Selena Gomez and Gigi Hadid, written on it. However, one name is noticeably missing – Kourtney Kardashian.
This subtle dig at Kardashian has not gone unnoticed by fans and media alike. Many are speculating that this is a direct response to Kardashian’s sister, Kim, who famously exposed Swift’s phone call with Kanye West about his song “Famous.” In the call, Swift can be heard giving her approval for the lyrics, but later claimed she never approved the line about her in the song.
But this isn’t the first time Swift has taken aim at the Kardashian family. In her song “This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things,” she references the feud and sings, “It was so nice being friends again / There I was giving you a second chance / But then you stabbed me in the back while shaking my hand.” It’s clear that Swift is not one to back down from a fight, and she’s not afraid to call out those who have wronged her.
However, despite the drama, Swift’s aim at Kardashian is not meant to be malicious. In fact, the overall message of the video is about rising above the negativity and reclaiming her power. Swift has been through her fair share of public feuds and criticism, but she’s not letting it bring her down. Instead, she’s using it as inspiration for her music and as a way to empower herself and her fans.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Swift explained the meaning behind the video, saying, “I wanted to make a video that was a commentary on fame. And how it can be twisted and turned into something that is completely different from what you thought it was going to be.” She goes on to say, “I think there are a lot of ways you can deal with [fame], and that’s one of them. It’s not the way I deal with it.”
Swift’s ability to turn negative situations into art is what makes her such a relatable and inspiring figure. She’s not afraid to speak her mind and stand up for herself, and that’s a message that resonates with her fans. In a world where celebrities are often portrayed as perfect and untouchable, Swift’s vulnerability and honesty is refreshing.
So while some may see her taking aim at Kardashian as just another celebrity feud, it’s actually a powerful statement about reclaiming her narrative and not letting others define her. And in true Taylor Swift fashion, she’s doing it with style and grace.
In the end, it’s clear that Swift’s aim at Kardashian is not meant to tear her down, but rather to show that she’s not afraid to stand up for herself and her beliefs. And that’s a message we can all take to heart – to never let anyone bring us down and to always stay true to ourselves.
