KANYE West’s wife Bianca Censori has shared her honest thoughts on Taylor Swift’s latest diss track about Kim Kardashian.
On Friday, April 19, the pop music sensation released her 11th studio album The Tortured Poets Department.
With the album out at midnight on Friday, Taylor, 34, surprised fans with another album release at 2 am titled The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology with 15 additional songs on top of the original 16.
One song on The Anthology had fans convinced that it was about Taylor’s nemesis, Kim, 43.
thanK you aIMee is the 24th song on the album that had the letters K, I, and M in capital letters – spelling out KIM.
BIANCA’S TAKE
Just days after the release, a source dished on what Bianca, 29, thought of Taylor’s song.
The insider revealed to Life & Style that they wonder if Kanye, 46, will share his thoughts on the song, as well as Cassandra, which seemingly references the phone call between the rapper and Taylor.
The source told the news outlet “Bianca finds it all very amusing. I’ve heard she likes Taylor’s music and think it’s all fair play.”
Meanwhile, the source also said that the Blank Space singer “doesn’t care” about any possible “fallout” with the Kardashian matriarch.
“Taylor wouldn’t have written a diss track aimed at Kim if she wasn’t prepared for some sort of backlash,” they told Life & Style.
“But Taylor won’t be retaliating, the song speaks for itself. She clearly doesn’t care.”
WHAT STARTED IT ALL
The beef started between Kanye and Taylor when he interrupted her at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards after she won Best Female Video for her hit, You Belong With Me.

“Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time,” Kanye stated, referencing Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It), also up for the award.
After the show, Taylor explained what happened from her point of view.
“I was standing on stage and I was really excited because I had just won the award. Then I was really excited because Kanye West was on the stage, then I wasn’t so excited anymore,” she said.
KIM’S INVOLVEMENT
Years later, everything seemed to be settled as Taylor presented Kanye with the Video Vanguard Award at the 2015 MTV VMAs.
She even shared a picture of herself with flowers that Kanye gifted her.
However, things took a dark turn once Kanye released the music video for his 2016 hit, Famous.
Taylor was featured in a lyric that said, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b***h famous / I made that b***h famous.”
In the Famous music video, a Taylor lookalike – along with other A-list celebrities – was seen sleeping naked in a large bed.
Before the song was released, Kanye called Taylor to get her permission on the lyrics, with Kim recording the conversation.
In a statement, Taylor claimed that while she knew of the lyric, she didn’t approve him calling her a b***h, with Kim stating otherwise.
In an interview with GQ, the TV personality said, “She totally approved that; she wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t.”
The entire phone call was later leaked in 2020, proving that Taylor knew nothing about the b***h lyric.
KEEPING THE FEUD GOING
At the end of 2023, Taylor was named Time’s Person of the Year and gave an honest interview about her feud with the Skims founder.
She revealed that the fallout was like “a career death” and that it was “taken away” from her.
Taylor said, “You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar.
“That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls.”
She claimed that she had trust issues after the incident and “pushed people away” because of it.
