Songbird Taylor Swift is not new when it comes to feuds. We all know the big war started with Kanye. After him, others have come out openly to lash out at the songstress - ranting on everything from blogs to Twitter.
But why feud with such a likable artist?
Well, as it turns out, Taylor Swift is never shy of speaking her mind - that's why her fans love her! So, whenever she feels something is not right, she'll point it out. This outspoken attitude, and of course, a few shoulder brushings here and there, is what has made her not only amass an army of haters among her "fans", but also a bunch of celebrity A-listers who just can't stand her.
So, who are the people she's beefed with in the past or is currently beefing with? You'll find out in this piece. So dig in.
15 Kanye West
Well, this is the guy who made Taylor Swift famous - or so he says. The Insider reports that their feud started at the MTV VMAs when Taylor, who was just 19 at the time, won the Best Music Video of the Year, over Beyonce's "Single Ladies". Kanye jumped on stage, rudely interrupted Taylor, and stated that Beyonce's video was one of the best of all time. Later on, he went on to rap in his song "Famous", about how he made Taylor famous.
14 Kim Kardashian
If the man doesn't like you, neither will his wife. Kim Kardashian expectedly falls in the list of celebrities who Taylor Swift cannot see eye to eye. This happened when Kim jumped to the defense of his hubby, who claimed that Taylor permitted him to call her the B-word in his "Famous" song lyrics. After Taylor denied the claim, Kim took to Snapchat stories with audio recordings of the two discussing the lyrics. She was branded a snake by Kanye's supporters.
13 Katy Perry
Well, our apparent BFFs have had a lot to fight about in the past. Katy Perry and Taylor Swift's feud was one of the longest-lasting fights in her career. After being friends for a while, the two started clashing over backup singers who they'd booked for their concert tours. Taylor Swift even went ahead to record a diss track, "Bad Blood", which got a response from Perry's "Swish Swish".
12 Diplo
Diplo and Taylor Swift didn't start feuding in 2017. According to his Twitter, Diplo was not shy to post a body-shaming Tweet on his timeline, back in 2014, something that Swifties didn't take kindly. Despite waving a white flag on that one, a damning 2017 Rolling Stone interview made things darker after he was recorded dissing Taylor Swift's songs as something kids won't want to listen to.
11 Scooter Braun
Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber's talent manager was not shy of getting into a tussle with Taylor Swift. In June 2019, Taylor went to Tumblr to slam Scooter on what she called manipulative bullying. Scooter had bought her masters, and he didn't care to tell her until she learned it from the rest of the world. This was after he acquired Big Machine Records.
10 Justin Bieber
When Taylor was fighting Scooter, she dragged Justin Bieber right into the dirt. In her lengthy Tumblr post, Taylor included Bieber in the fight, reminiscing how in her feud with Kanye, which led to the "snake" reference, Justin posted a picture on Instagram of him, Kanye, and Scooter, with the caption "Taylor swift what up". Justin, trying to avoid taking apparent sides, posted on his Instagram that he wished this story wouldn't play out on social media.
9 Nicki Minaj
The VMAs were not kind to Taylor. Yet again, she found herself feuding with a fellow artist over nominations - this time, Nicki Minaj. This was because Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood" had been given a nomination over Nicki's "Anaconda" and "Feeling Myself", which she did with Beyonce. Billboard reports that the fight went to Twitter, where the conversation was turned from shaming thin women to racism, with Katy Perry chipping in to trash her nemesis at the time.
8 Joe Jonas
Joe Jonas was that one ex that Taylor couldn't grudgingly let go of. And for that, he was on the receiving end of many of her lyrical attacks. Why? He ended their relationship over a 27-second phone call, quickly jumping to actress Camilla Belle, shortly afterward. While Jonas lashed at Swift in one song, Taylor sent a barrage of three songs to diss her ex.
7 Lorde
Previously, Lorde was quick to defend Taylor. But that seems to have changed as the relationship between the two has soured. Things took a turn for nasty during the 2017 Vanity Fair interview when Lorde described having Taylor as a friend as dealing with someone with an autoimmune disease.
6 Demi Lovato
This is what happens when you date Taylor's ex. Back in 2010, Taylor Swift quickly inaugurated Selena Gomez into her Swift Squad. A betrayed Demi Lovato, after being asked about Selena by a fan, lashed out in the comments, "Ask Taylor." As it turned out, Demi Lovato was in a relationship with Joe Jonas at the time.
