Taylor Swift doesn’t have any patience for “haters.”
Over the years, she’s clapped back at Miley Cyrus, Cardi B, and even Mariah Carey.
However, in 2015, Swift and Minaj got mixed up in a messy situation of their own.
Strangely, Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda,” which has since received over one billion yes, billion!
views onYouTube, didn’t get a mention in the top-billed category.
Instead, it was up for “Best Hip Hop Video.”
She alsonotedthat women with “slim bodies” are celebrated in the industry.
Taylor Swift, who saw this as a direct call-out, got offended.
“It’s unlike you to pit women against each other.
Maybe one of the men took your slot.”
Minaj, who never mentioned Swift by name, was confused.
U must not be reading my tweets.
Didn’t say a word about u. I love u just as much," sheresponded.
Swift later apologized for the misunderstanding (viaThe Los Angeles Times).
“I thought I was being called out.
I missed the point, I misunderstood, then misspoke.
Years later, this time at the2022 VMAs, they proved their friendship was still going strong.
The two were also seen living it up together at an afterparty later that night.
After Minaj performed that night,Swift was seen encouraging the crowdto give her friend a standing ovation.
Here’s to hoping for more Minaj-Swift collaborations… maybe a new single?
