Taylor Swift has taken her feud with Kim Kardashian to the next level with some thinly veiled jabs while performing live at her Eras Tour in London.
The pop megastar made a surprising on-stage comment and turned her diss track about Kim, 43, into a seemingly targeted mashup.
Taylor, 34, performed her tune “thanK you aIMee” at the Eras Tour in London on Saturday.
The hitmaker is currently embarking on a three-night stay at Wembley Stadium with openers like Paramore.
“thanK you AIMee” is from her latest LP, The Tortured Poets Department.
The song is known to be about her longtime feud with Kim – as the capitalized letters in the song title blatantly spell out “Kim.”
Taylor combined the song into a surprising mashup – she mixed it with her classic hit “Mean,” which seemed to be a jab in itself.
Not only that, but Taylor had something to say to an audience of 80,000 before playing it.
“Every time someone talks sh**, it makes me work even harder,” she declared (seen here) with a smile.
‘KIM FOUND CRYING’
“Kim Kardashian was found crying,” one X user wrote as the concert clip made the rounds.
Other fans think Taylor may have even concluded the mashup by flashing the middle finger.
“Call me crazy but I think when she bowed at the end she was holding up one finger,” wrote a third.
Taylor’s comment to introduce the mashup may have been referring to Kim’s controversial infamous statement about women.
In a 2022 Variety interview, the billionaire said, “I have the best advice for women in business, get your fking a up and work. It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”
Taylor’s last London show is tomorrow night as her money-raking Eras tour continues.
BAD BLOOD
Kim and Taylor have been in a years-long feud, which hit a fever pitch when she and her ex-husband, Kanye West, recorded a phone call to Taylor in 2016.
The Blank Space singer admitted that their fallout felt like “a career death” in a Time Magazine cover interview this year.
“You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar,” Taylor said.
“That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls.”
In June 2016, the rap music star released the music video for his song, Famous, which had Kanye lying naked in bed along with other A-lister lookalikes in the nude – including Taylor.
In the single, Kanye raps, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b***h famous / I made that b***h famous.”
When the music video dropped, Taylor claimed that while she did know about the lyric, she was unaware that she was called a b***h, despite Kanye’s wife at the time, Kim, arguing otherwise.
Kim then released a snippet of a phone call between the Yeezy mogul and Taylor to “prove” that she knew about the lyrics.
In the leaked phone call, it was clear that Kanye did mention he’d be putting out a song with her name in it, but he did not share explicitly what the lyrics wound up being.
The Skims mogul later said in an interview with GQ, “She totally approved that; she wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t.”
All of this, of course, stems back to when Kanye stormed the stage at the 2009 VMAs when Taylor won video of the year.
