Twitter was lit on Monday as KimKardashian took to Twitter to set the record straight about whether she edited the audio of the video she shared where Taylor and Kanye were discussing the content of the song.
According to Kim, Kanye asked for permission from Taylor for the lyrics he used in the song.
However, in the video, Taylor was heard approving only this line: 'I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex'.
Kanye called Taylor a ‘b***ch’ in the song, as well as alluding to her owing him sex for making her famous. The lyrics of the song say: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that b***ch famous”.

Taylor's publicist accused Kim of editing the video footage.
"I’m Taylor’s publicist and this is my UNEDITED original statement. Btw, when you take parts out, that’s editing," she wrote.

Kim has denied the claims and called Taylor a liar.
"I didn’t feel the need to comment a few days ago, and I’m actually really embarrassed and mortified to be doing it right now, but because she continues to speak on it, I feel I’m left without a choice but to respond because she is actually lying.
"To be clear, the only issue I ever had around the situation was that Taylor lied through her publicist who stated that “Kanye never called to ask for permission...” They clearly spoke so I let you all see that. Nobody ever denied the word “bitch” was used without her permission.
"At the time when they spoke the song had not been fully written yet, but as everyone can see in the video, she manipulated the truth of their actual conversation in her statement when her team said she “declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. The lie was never about the word bitch, It was always whether there was a call or not and the tone of the conversation.
"I never edited the footage (another lie) - I only posted a few clips on Snapchat to make my point and the full video that recently leaked doesn’t change the narrative," she wrote.

.@taylorswift13 has chosen to reignite an old exchange - that at this point in time feels very self-serving given the suffering millions of real victims are facing right now.

To add, Kanye as an artist has every right to document his musical journey and process, just like she recently did through her documentary.

Kanye has documented the making of all of his albums for his personal archive, however has never released any of it for public consumption & the call between the two of them would have remained private or would have gone in the trash had she not lied & forced me to defend him.
