Taylor Swift received an apology after a music magazine resurfaced a nude wax video of the star, which she previously stated was 'revenge porn'.

The beef between Taylor Swift and Kanye West is pretty deep rooted, and it all began when the rapper rushed onto the stage while Swift was accepting the MTV VMA for best female video in 2009.

He claimed that Beyoncé actually had the best video of 'all time', and the feud has been ongoing ever since.

In 2016, West released a song called 'Famous', which starred waxworks of multiple naked celebrities in the music video.

The video included depictions of Donald Trump, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Kim Kardashian, and Swift.

When the clip was released, Swift branded it 'revenge porn', and released a statement on her Tumblr.

The singer said: "Kanye West, organized a revenge porn music video which strips my body naked."

She also noted experiencing 'incessant, manipulative bullying' for years.

But the offensive clip was brought back to the forefront of everyone's minds, after Billboard magazine shared the footage among other clips from her career.

It has been unveiling its list of the top pop stars of the 21st century over the past few months, and announced that Swift had placed second in their ranking.

However, they included a clip of Swift's nude waxwork from the 'Famous' video in their post celebrating Swift's achievements.

They quickly retracted the video, and released a statement to go with it.

They said: "We are deeply sorry to Taylor Swift and all of our readers and viewers that in a video celebrating Swift’s achievements, we included a clip that falsely depicted her."

The magazine added: "We have removed the clip from our video and sincerely regret the harm we caused with this error.”

While Taylor hasn't spoken about the mishap from Billboard, furious fans came out to defend her.

One said: "Okay, Billboard‘s intention was to recap everything that happened in her entire career, I get that. But was it really necessary to include THAT scene? Just nasty, disrespectful and unprofessional."

Another said: "Taylor and her team should take strict action cuz that was so unprofessional and problematic on Billboard’s part."

Kanye's 'Famous' was controversial aside from the nude waxworks, with it also featuring vulgar lyrics about Swift.

In the song, Kanye wrote: "‘I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b**** famous."

At the time, a source told Hollywood Life: "Taylor is furious after seeing Kanye’s video. She feels like she’s been assaulted."
