Taylor Swift’s Kim Kardashian diss track is her ‘final word’ on the reality TV star amid their years-long feud: ‘Taylor is not looking back’
The song, titled thanK you aIMee, is featured on Swift’s new album The Tortured Poets Department and is believed to be about her feud with the reality TV star, 43.
‘The song is her final word,’ a source told Us Weekly on Thursday, adding: ‘Taylor has moved on and is not looking back.’
Swift ‘has not heard’ from Kardashian about the song that’s renewed interest in the end of their friendship in 2016.
This comes as fans believe they have finally uncovered the ‘bronze spray-tanned statue’ line referenced in thanK you aIMee.
At the start of the guitar-driven ballad, Swift sings: ‘When I picture my hometown / There’s a bronze spray-tanned statue of you /And a plaque underneath it /That threatens to push me down the stairs, at our school.’
One of Swift’s most devoted fans, using the handle @downbadam, took to X to reveal that the statue mentioned could be the one of Athena Parthenos in the Nashville Parthenon, which has a giant snake on it.
It ties back to a 2016 tweet from Kardashian, now 43, aimed at Taylor at the height of their tension.
At the time, the reality television star had posted, ‘Wait it’s legit National Snake Day?!?!? They have holidays for everybody, I mean everything these days!’ with a string of snake emoji.
Following Kim’s tweet, Swift was hit with a slew of snake emoji on social media apps before repurposing it in 2017 when she released her album Reputation.
The latest discovery from the Swifties comes after a source told People on Tuesday that Kim had put the bad blood behind her and wants Taylor can learn to do the same.
‘She’s over it and thinks Taylor should move on,’ the person said, adding that Kim ‘doesn’t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it.’
‘It’s been literally years,’ the person emphasized.
‘Why not ask her about the Taylor Swift song that North will be singing!’ wrote one person on Instagram.
Another wrote: ‘Jimmy, I’m 100 percent sure you weren’t allowed to speak or ask questions about Taylor or TTPD but you could have least ‘slipped up’ a couple of times and called her aIMee.’
In addition to the suggestive title, fans believe the new song is aimed at Kim given its chorus: ‘All that time you were throwin’ punches, I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel / Screamed ‘F*** you, Aimee’ to the night sky, as the blood was gushin’/ But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.’
In another part of the tune, Taylor sings about removing ‘defining clues’ about the person she’s singing about, and she added, ‘I changed your name,’ which drew more listeners to the title.
