What’s worse than losing a friend? Losing a friend publicly in a feud that shocks the world. It’s not just normal folks that experience such a “falling out,” as even big shot celebrities can have disagreements that can turn into all-out wars. A few of these celebrity feuds have even gone on to shape the future of the entertainment industry. Let’s take a look at some of the most famous ones that still boggle the mind to this day!

👑 Taylor Swift vs. Kanye West

This is undoubtedly one of the most iconic celebrity feuds. It started during the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye West interrupted Taylor Swift during her acceptance speech for Best Female Video. The feud simmered down for a while, but in 2016, Kanye released a track titled “Famous,” that contained controversial lyrics about Taylor, which he claimed she approved. Taylor called him out, denying any agreement with Kanye over the lyrics.

The feud escalated further, and several songs were released, including Swift’s “Look What You Made Me Do,” which famously refers to the incident with the lyrics, “I’m sorry, the old Taylor can’t come to the phone right now. Why? ‘Cause she’s dead.”

🦄 Katy Perry vs. Taylor Swift

You can’t keep Taylor Swift out of a good celebrity feud, can you? This time, she was at the receiving end of Katy Perry’s wrath. The feud allegedly began over backup dancers, and things escalated so quickly that there are now several songs dedicated to it. Taylor’s “Bad Blood” is often regarded as a direct attack on Katy, while Katy’s “Swish Swish” is thought to be her retort.

Despite both artists claiming they have “moved on,” the feud remains the talk of the town.

🔥Nicki Minaj vs. Cardi B

Nicki Minaj and Cardi B’s feud is relatively new, but it has earned its place in the celebrity feud hall of fame. In 2017, the two rap icons collaborated on the song “Motorsport,” but things quickly became sour, with both singers taking shots at each other on social media and in interviews.

The feud boiled over in 2018 when the two artists got into a physical altercation at the New York Fashion Week. Cardi was reportedly trying to attack Nicki with her shoe, leading to a brawl that ended with Cardi being escorted out by security.

🤔 Kim Kardashian vs. Taylor Swift

This feud all started when Kim Kardashian released a video of a phone conversation between Kanye West and Taylor Swift, where Kanye asks for permission to use the lyrics, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex,” in his song “Famous.” After Taylor denied giving him such permission, Kim released the video on Snapchat, and Taylor became the subject of social media users’ fury.

To this day, the relationship between Taylor and Kim remains icy, and fans can only speculate what will occur if they find themselves at the same event.

🌪️ Drake vs. Pusha T

There have been many feuds between rappers over the years, but none have been as explosive as the one between Drake and Pusha T. The feud began when Pusha T accused Drake of using a ghostwriter.

Drake fired back with a diss track titled “Duppy Freestyle,” where he took shots at Pusha T’s career and his drug dealing past. Pusha T then released a track titled “The Story of Adidon,” where he revealed a picture of Drake in blackface, a move that shook the entire industry.

Celebrities are human beings with emotions and big egos, and when they have a disagreement, it can become very public and very personal, very quickly. While these celebrity feuds are undoubtedly entertaining to watch, they serve as a gentle reminder that even the biggest stars can’t always handle the pressure.
