Taylor Swift responded to Kanye West’s ‘Famous’ lyric during her Grammy acceptance speech for Album Of The Year. Check it out below.
‘Famous’ appears on the rapper’s latest album, The Life Of Pablo. In the song, Kanye raps “"I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / I made that bitch famous.”
The controversial lyrics refer to the moment when the rapper interrupted Swift during her 2009 MTV VMA acceptance speech. Swift and West reportedly reconciled at the MTV VMA Awards last year when Swift presented West with the lifetime achievement prize.
West recently took to Twitter to state that he “did not diss Taylor Swift”.
At the 58th Grammy Awards last night, Swift won the Album Of The Year award for 1989, beating The Weeknd and Kendrick Lamar.
In her acceptance speech she said, "I wanna thank the fans for the last 10 years and the recording academy for this incredible honour and my collaborators you see on this stage."
She then subtly referred to West’s ‘Famous’ lyric by saying “As the first woman to win Album Of The Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there there are going to be people along the way who are going to try and undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or you fame."
She concluded with, “But if you just focus on the work and you don't let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you're going you'll look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you that put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment."
