Taylor Swift fans are uniting against Kanye West over new leaked video clips of a 2016 phone call between the pop superstar and the rapper about his controversial song “Famous.”
On Saturday (March 21), Twitter lit up with the hashtag #KanyeWestIsOverParty after the new videos of the conversation (as reported by the New York Post) seemingly prove that Swift wasn’t lying about giving West permission to use the lyric “I made that bitch famous” in his song.

Billboard has reached out to representatives for both Swift and West, and neither responded to requests for comment.
To refresh: Swift and West have been at odds for more than a decade. The feud started with West interrupting her acceptance speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, and it reached a fever pitch in 2016 after the rapper dropped his music video for “Famous,” which features a naked wax figure depicting Swift lying next to West in bed.
Swift fans came out of the woodwork on Saturday to slam West and his wife, Kim Kardashian, over the 2016 phone call — which resulted in a major backlash against Swift — and demanded that they apologize to Swift.
“Taylor Swift disappeared for two years because she thought the world hated her because Kanye West and Kim Kardashian painted her as a liar,” one Swift fan tweeted. “Four years on and the truth is out. She was honest all along. Damn I really hope TS8 IS called Karma.”

Basically, the whole phone call leaked, revealing Taylor Swift never consented to being called “that bitch.”
She never lied or was a “snake.”
She was recorded illegally and manipulated by Kanye West and everyone owes her an apology.pic.twitter.com/nTZXrJo7yS
