Feuds and celebrities go hand in hand these days and sometimes, it can last years.
Especially when it involves Taylor Swift and SKIMS mogul Kim Kardashian.
You may have thought the 2016 drama was over after Kanye’s 'Famous' song turned the world on Swift, only to flip right back some years later when it was revealed that Kanye’s leaked phone call in which Swift appeared to give the green light to the song was heavily edited by Kardashian.
But it’s far from over thanks to the surprise drop of the double whammy album, The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology on Friday (19 April).

The 34-year-old gave fans a treat when she surprised them with 31 songs packed full of references about her life, which fans also think includes a dig at Ms Kim K.
Last month, Kardashian had a whopping 364.3 million followers, but Swifts ‘diss track’ soon dwindled it to 363.8 million.
This may all be thanks to Swift’s song 'thanK you aIMee', which has an unusual choice of capitalisation in the name, spelling ‘KIM’.
According to the lyrics, it’s about a high-school bully who kicked her down and made her feel low, but ultimately allowed her to rise above and heal.
The lines read: “All that time you were throwin’ punches; I was buildin’ somethin’ / And I can’t forgive the way you made me feel.
“Screamed, ‘F–k you, Aimee’ to the night sky as the blood was gushin’ / But I can’t forget the way you made me heal.”
But Kardashian didn’t utter a peep until now.
Last night, Monday 22 April, the Keeping up with the Kardashians star sat down with Jimmy Kimmel on his Jimmy Kimmel Live! show to talk about how she has been doing.
The reality star was all smiles on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday night, telling viewers: "I'm good. Life is good, yes."
But watchers weren’t happy.
This is because Kimmel joked about Swift’s new album in his opening monologue, however, he didn’t ask the reality star anything about it.
Instead, he spoke to her about her brand’s Ultimate Nipple Bra, and her childhood.
That’s when commenters seethed that he had missed the ‘opportunity’ to ask about it and catch her thoughts.
But some think that the star had already clocked this beforehand.
Someone wrote: “I’m sure she had her PR people ask him to stay away from those types of questions.”
That’s one way to dodge the drama train.
