Kim Kardashian West shares Taylor and Kanye conversation

Kim Kardashian West has shared a video of Taylor Swift describing Kanye West’s ‘Famous’ lyrics as a "compliment".
The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star has previously insisted the ‘Shake It Off’ singer approved her husband’s controversial track – in which Kanye raps about wanting to have sex with Taylor – but after the 26-year-old pop star denied her claims, she took to Snapchat on Sunday (17.07.16) to share a number of revealing videos.
After ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ had featured the dispute on the show, Kim posted footage of Kanye and Taylor on the phone, with the 38-year-old rapper reading her the lyric "For all my Southside n****s that know me best / I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex".
In response, Taylor could be heard saying: "It’s like a compliment."
Kanye reassured the singer he wanted her to "feel good" about the song.
He said: "What I give a f**k [about] is you as a person, and as a friend, I want things that make you feel good."
He then thanked her for being "so cool" about it, while she said she appreciated the "head’s up" about the song.
She added: "Go with whatever line…[you think is] better."
"I really appreciate you telling me about it, that’s really nice.
"Even asking or seeing if I’d be OK with it. I just really appreciate it. I would never have expected you to tell me about one of the lines in your song.
"I mean, I don’t think anybody would listen to that and be like, ‘Oh, that’s a real diss.’ You gotta tell the story that way that it happened to you and the way you experienced it."
And the ‘Blank Space’ hitmaker went on to tell Kanye she would tell the media he had called her and things were fine between them.
She said: "If people ask me about it, I think it would be great for me to be like, ‘Look he called me and told me the line before it came out. Joke’s on you guys, we’re fine.’ "
However, Taylor has now hit back, insisting she never approved the actual lyric that Kanye used in the track – "I feel like me and Taylor still might have sex / Why? I made that b***h famous."
She also slammed Kim for calling her a "liar".
In a post on Instagram titled "That moment when Kanye West secretly records your phone call, then Kim posts it on the Internet", she wrote: "Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that b***h’ in his song? It doesn’t exist because it never happened. You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called ‘that b***h’ in front of the entire world," the singer wrote on her social media account.
"He promised to play the song for me, but he never did. While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye on the phone call, you cannot ‘approve’ a song you haven’t heard. Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination."
Taylor and Kanye first fell out in 2009 when he invaded the stage to object to her triumphing over Beyonce at the MTV Video Music Awards.
And the ‘Bad Blood’ singer referenced that in her Instagram post, closing the statement with: "I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I never asked to be a part of, since 1999."
After Kim – who has children North, three, and Saint, seven months, with Kanye – insisted last month Taylor had approved the track, her representative hit back to say that was untrue and the singer had been left "humiliated".
They said: "Taylor heard it for the first time when everyone else did and was humiliated. Kim Kardashian’s claim that Taylor and her team were aware of being recorded is not true, and Taylor cannot understand why Kanye West, and now Kim Kardashian, will not just leave her alone."
