Kim Kardashian called Taylor Swift “super cute” and claimed to be a Swiftie as wedding chatter with Travis Kelce heats up

In late 2021, long before their names resurfaced in more recent cultural debates, Kim Kardashian made headlines for a reason no one expected: she openly praised Taylor Swift’s music. At the time, the comment stunned fans because it arrived years after the two had been locked in one of pop culture’s most public and polarizing feuds.

Yet during a candid moment on the Honestly With Bari Weiss podcast, Kardashian didn’t hesitate to admit that she had plenty of Swift’s songs saved on her phone. It was an unexpected shift in tone that suggested, at least publicly, that some of the tension between the two megastars had eased, even if their complicated history still loomed large.

Kim Kardashian once surprised fans by praising Taylor Swift’s “super cute and catchy” music

During the rapid-fire portion of the interview, Kardashian was asked about some of her favorite albums. While she predictably mentioned Yeezus and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy when discussing Ye’s catalog, she surprised the host when Taylor Swift’s name came up.



Kim didn’t pick a specific album, but she didn’t downplay her appreciation either. “I mean, I really like a lot of her songs,” she said. “They’re all super cute and catchy. I’d have to look in my phone to get a name.”

For fans who lived through the highly publicized fallout, from the infamous 2009 VMAs moment to the explosive controversy surrounding the edited 2016 phone call, hearing Kardashian speak so casually about enjoying Swift’s music felt almost surreal. At the time, Kim had already told Watch What Happens Live that the feud was “over,” even though the two stars still hadn’t spoken.

Her 2021 podcast comments didn’t rewrite their history, but they did offer a small look at how public figures sometimes outgrow old conflicts, even when their disagreements once dominated global headlines. And while their relationship has remained distant, that simple acknowledgment that Swift’s songs were on her playlist showed a rare, human side of a long-running saga fans know all too well.
