Kim Kardashian makes rare comment about Taylor Swift two years after singer's 'diss track' about her
Kim Kardashian has made a rare comment about Taylor Swift, almost two years after the singer's diss track about the reality TV star.
The Skims founder opened up about the hitmaker's music on sister Khloe Kardashian's podcast, Khloe in Wonder Land.
"Do you think people would be surprised that you listen to Taylor Swift?" Khloe, 41, asked her 46-year-old sister.

Kim replied swiftly saying "I think I've said it" before, to which Khloe doubled down saying she thought people would be shocked to hear it.
"I have some of her older songs on my playlist," Kim continued. "I've always thought she was, like, a super talented, great artist."
Kim said she was a country music fan in general and favours artists including Shania Twain, Carrie Underwood and LeAnn Rimes.

Kim and Swift have a long history, starting with Kanye West's outburst during the singer's 2009 MTV VMA acceptance speech.
The singer and the rapper appeared to have resolved their issues years later, in 2015, before things escalated again in 2016, following the release of West's song Famous.
Kim and her then husband said Swift approved the lyrics, which included a name check and calling her a bitch, but Swift denied that.
West then made a music video for the song featuring lookalike wax dolls, which Swift called "disturbing", before Kim went on to release part of a phone call between West and Swift about the song on Snapchat in 2016.
Swift said the video was an edited version of their conversation - a 2020 unedited leak of the phone call later proved her point - and she shared snake emojis on social media in response to Kim's move.
Many believe Kim and West's move sparked Swift's now-famous Reputation era, which spawned hits like Look What You Made Me Do and ...Ready For It.
When she was named Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2023, Swift reflected on that time in her life, saying the incident made her scared to take phone calls and she didn't leave her rental property for a year.
"That took me down psychologically to a place I've never been before," she said.

The song thanK you aIMee from Swift's 2024 album The Tortured Poets Department is widely believed to be about Kim, based on the lyrics as well as the capitalisation of her name in the title.
Kim is the third of the sisters to appear on the podcast after Kylie Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian Barker.
Matriarch Kris Jenner, her brother Robert Kardashian and Kourtney's ex-partner Scott Disick have also appeared on prior episodes of Khloe in Wonder Land.
