From Nasty Woman To Evil Kermit: The Most Viral Moments Of 2016

The Wests Versus Taylor Swift

In what was probably the most memorable celebrity feud of 2016, we saw Kanye and Kim Kardashian-West pitted against songstress Taylor Swift. After the infamous debacle that was Kanye interrupting Taylor’s speech back in 2009, the feud was seemingly reignited.

Kanye released a song called Famous, which included a line about Taylor that said, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex, and also alluded to making her famous. After the song was released Taylor publicly said that she never gave permission for Kanye to use her name and that she was offended by the misogynistic lyrics. She also used the Grammy awards stage to say that some people might try to take credit for your fame. Kanye countered and said that he had sought out her permission previous to releasing the song.
