Taylor Swift reignited feud with Kim Kardashian in her latest album, but the pair have a lot of friends in common, from Lana del Rey to Gigi Hadid and Ice Spice – so, will they be forced to take sides?

On her recent record-breaking album The Tortured Poets Department, Taylor Swift reignited her decades-long feud with Kim Kardahian.

On the track thanK you aIMee, the 14-time Grammy award-winner sings of her apparent dislike for a mean school girl she refers to as ‘Aimee’ – who fans believe is actually Kim, as the letters K I M are capitalised in the song title.

The feud, which began with Kim’s ex-husband Kanye West ran onto stage while she was accepting a VMA in 2009 and escalated when in 2016 Kim leaked an edited and illegally recorded phone call between Kanye and Taylor.
Thirteen years on from the start of the dispute, there appears to be no sign of it disappearing – with the pair, arguably two of the most famous women alive, making no signs of amends.

But, despite Taylor seemingly having no interest in making up with Kim, the pair do share a lot of mutual friends.

Many of Taylor’s girl squad – including Lana Del Rey, Ice Spice, Gigi Hadid and Selena Gomez have all been friendly with Kim Kardashian – some even doing campaigns for Skims.

Lana, a long term pal and collaborator of Taylor, sang at Kim and Kanye’s wedding and was recently pictured with her at the Met Gala, just a couple months after she attended the Grammy’s with Taylor.

In January, Lana Del Rey, 38, donned a satin blue and lace bodysuit as she posed seductively inside a giant heart with her hands clothed in gloves and a duo of matching bows in her hair for a SKIMS shoot.

Kim has talked about being a huge fan of Lana’s, and her track Young and Beautiful, and was performed by a brass brand when her now ex-husband Ye popped the question in 2013.

She even performed at Kim and Kanye’s rehearsal dinner inside the Palace of Versailles, singing her tracks Blue Jeans, Young and Beautiful, and Summertime Sadness.

Speaking with Vogue , Lana revealed her shoot with SKIMS came to be after she asked about obtaining the sold-out Swarovski dresses the brand was selling.

Coincidentally, SKIMS was also interested in working with her.

‘It was kind of a cool coincidence. I actually had asked a mutual friend [of Kim and I’s], Tracey Cunningham, if there was any way we could get one of the Swarovski [SKIMS] dresses that had sold out; At the same time, her friend Tracy Romulus asked if I’d be interested in doing a campaign. So it all happened at the exact same minute, which I took as a serendipitous sign. And I said, ‘Yeah, absolutely.’ I didn’t really hesitate. Me and my girlfriends were pretty excited, actually.’

She also described her love for the clothing made by Kim and SKIMS: ‘Well, first of all, I just love how well it’s doing for her. And second of all, I do wear basics on most days; I like wearing the little rompers, or onesies with a big T-shirt. I’m always curious to see what they’re going to do; it’s an ever-evolving brand.

‘It started as kind of a niche brand, and I feel like it’s grown into a thing where now my sister and my best friend Margaret are wearing it. All of a sudden you’re like, ‘Oh, you’re wearing SKIMS too,’ and you show up in the same outfit as you’re getting a coffee. It’s really kind of sweet.’

But despite her closeness with Kim K, there is no bad blood between Lana and Taylor, who have often collaborated together.
