Taylor Swift won Album of the Year at Monday night's Grammy Awards for her fifth album "1989," and she wasn't going to let anyone, not even Kanye West, ruin this incredible moment for her.
Last week, West put out his new album "The Life of Pablo," which featured the song "Famous" that takes a dig at Swift. "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. I made that bitch famous," one of the lines of the song reads. Since West famously interrupted her 2009 VMA acceptance speech, the two have since put their beef behind them, but now that West has released this diss lyric, it's been unclear whether or not Swift gave him the OK.
While accepting her award at the 2016 Grammy's, even though she didn't call out West as obviously as he did, she did make a subtle reference to his recent lyric in her speech.
"As the first woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I wanna say to all the young women out there," Swift said in her inspiring speech. "There are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success, or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame, but if you just focus on the work and you don't let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you're going, you'll look around and you'll know that it was you and the people who love you that put you there, and that will be the greatest feeling in the world."
After West released "Famous" and claimed that he got her approval, her rep released a statement saying that she apparently did not approve. "Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single 'Famous' on her Twitter account," the statement read, as HNGN previously reported. "She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyrics, 'I made that bitch famous.'"
He then took to Twitter in typical Yeezy fashion writing, "I did not diss Taylor Swift and I've never dissed her...I called Taylor and had an hour long convo with her about the line and she thought it was funny and gave her blessing...It's actually something Taylor came up with."
West has not yet responded to her acceptance speech. Watch the full video below!
