2016年欧美娱乐圈发生了一件轰动全球的drama,侃爷的老婆金·卡戴珊在Snapchat上发布了三分钟的霉霉(泰勒·斯威夫特)和侃爷(坎耶·韦斯特)的通话,通过片段剪辑把霉霉描述成骗子,让霉霉的形象和事业受到巨大打击。
而就在2020年3月21号,霉霉和侃爷之间的一段未被剪辑的原始对话突然被泄露,比卡戴珊的大量剪辑片段更完整的呈现给全世界——这证明了一直以来霉霉并都没说谎。#KanyeWestIsOverParty(侃爷完了)迅速登上全球趋势榜!
2016年在麦迪逊广场花园侃爷新专辑《The Life of Pablo》举行的听歌会上,观众们第一次听到了《Famous》这首歌的歌词:“我让那个表子(b***h)出名了”
事件迅速发酵,因为他们之间的恩怨历史是众所周知的。2009年,侃爷在VMA颁奖礼上打断了霉霉的发言并称台下的碧昂丝更值得获奖。这个充满疑问却又具有标志性的时刻,拉开了两人多年来的紧张关系。当年霉霉凭借《You Belong With Me》赢得最佳女歌手录影带大奖,台上领奖稚气未脱的霉霉兴奋感言:“我一直梦想如果有一天我获得这种奖项会是什么滋味,但我从未想到梦想成真,我唱的是乡村音乐,所以非常感谢让我有机会获得VMA大奖。”
In March,a person with a desire to stir up chaos in the middle of a pandemic deemed it an opportune time to rehash one of the most annoyingly lengthy feuds in celebrity history. To do that, this unknown party leaked what appears to be the full, infamous phone call between Kanye West and Taylor Swift about his song “Famous.” That person is now my nemesis.
Some context: “Famous” was the original comeback of this decade-plus beef. Swift and West’s first encounter was at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when West interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech for Female Video of the Year and claimed that Beyoncé (who won Video of the Year later that night for “Single Ladies”) should have taken home the moonman instead. Tensions lingered between the two with thinly veiled references to each other in their music – Swift sang “32, and still growing up now” a year later on “Innocent,” while West gave a “toast to the douchebags” on “Runaway” – and in interviews. In 2015, the duo publicly buried the hatchet at the VMAs when Swift presented West with his Video Vanguard Award.
Things were fine – dare we say peaceful – until West released The Life of Pablo in early 2016. On the song “Famous,” West rapped, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that bitch famous/Goddamn, I made that bitch famous.” West claimed he had asked for permission from Swift. Swift, via a statement from her publicist Tree Paine, claimed that she had not been made aware of the line “I made that bitch famous.”
Later that year, West’s wife Kim Kardashian leaked footage of the phone call on Snapchat where West tells her about the “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex” line. Cue a series of snake emojis on Swift’s Instagram and Twitter and the entire Reputation era a year later.
The case of Kimye vs. Swift vs. The Very Tired Public has still been buzzing for some time: When Swift did interviews to promote her latest album Lover last year, she maintained her stance that she had never heard the song in full and that the line where he calls her a “bitch” and takes credit for her career was withheld.
Still, here we are, nearly 11 years after this all began, being forced into some of the most poorly timed drama a person could imagine. The video that had been leaked last weekend proves favorable towards Swift: If it is, in fact, the whole call, West does not play the song in full and never mentions the line she had been angry about for years.
Besides “liking” some Tumblr posts about the newly leaked footage, Swift stayed quiet on the matter until Monday afternoon. “Instead of answering those who are asking how I feel about the video footage that leaked, proving that I was telling the truth the whole time about *that call* (you know, the one that was illegally recorded, that somebody edited and manipulated in order to frame me and put me, my family, and fans through hell for 4 years)…SWIPE UP to see what really matters,” the Grammy winner wrote on a text-only Instagram Story slide. The link in the Instagram Story re-directed her followers to the World Health Organization’s COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund. In the next post on her Story, she encouraged people to join her in donating to the fund.
Later that evening, Kardashian jumped in — because we were all absolutely thirsting for more content about this — and claimed that Swift had re-ignited the feud and Kardashian subsequently needed to defend herself and her husband. She also expressed annoyance at Swift bringing it up while millions of “real victims” face the looming threat of the coronavirus — a fitting entry in the “Who Cares More?” Olympics.
“To be clear, the only issue I ever had around the situation was that Taylor lied through her publicist who stated that ‘Kanye never called to ask for permission…,'” Kardashian wrote in her tweetstorm, referring to Paine. “They clearly spoke so I let you all see that. Nobody ever denied the word ‘bitch’ was used without her permission.”
She continued by defending the claim that she did not edit the footage for Snapchat and that West has every right to continue filming his album-recording process, something he has done since The College Dropout. She ended her statement with “nobody cares,” the most easily fact-checked (and true) sentence out of everything we have gotten this past week.
Paine jumped into the ring with her full response to “Famous” from 2016 (which Rolling Stone can confirm was quoted in our coverage during the 2016 events).
What does this all mean? Absolutely nothing. There could not have been a worse time for this to resurface: we are all literally trapped in our homes (Did I fail to mention the pandemic? There’s a pandemic!) with no current work-home separation. That is, of course, if you were actually fortunate enough to keep your job due to everything shutting down and the economy crumbling. We’re tired! No one needed to respond! As Kourtney Kardashian once screamed at a frantic Kim who was looking for a lost earring in the ocean: “Kim, there’s people that are dying.”
Can we restart? Can we leave it at the many angry response bops we have gotten and move on? Please, I beg of everyone involved, make it stop.
四年前金卡戴珊侃爷设计陷害霉霉
如今一段未被剪辑的原始视频终于真相大白!
小清新和侃爷2016年著名的《Famous》纷争,在2020年有了意想不到的进展:黑客公开了侃爷完整版的视频内容,剧情反转。
当年小清新承受过的全网爆体验,现在也反弹到了金·卡戴珊和侃爷身上,疫情下隔离在家的欧美网友哗然了,愤怒了。
视频显示,小清新自始至终都没有听到那句著名的“I made that b**** famous”,也明确指出其实“两种(歌词看图)说法都很容易把人激怒。”“我觉得那样唱出来会让人觉得有些刻薄。”
甚至在没听到完整版歌曲时,她就坦言自己以为侃爷会加入“dumb b****”这样不友好的词。
侃爷表示希望歌曲出来后帮忙转发,小清新表示:“我希望能好好想想这事,让我再思考一下这件事”。
婉拒的理由是不希望让人产生不必要的误会。“你应该知道我做的每件事都会引起关注,我如果这么做,就会被曲解,人们会把事情变得很负面。”
截图不是正常时间线顺序,我把这几句拼在了一起
事情后来的走向也证明当时她当时的顾虑,都成真了。
看完视频的我只有一个私人的感受:Taylor脾气真是好啊。
当年争议歌曲推出,侃爷第一时间表示小清新对整首作品完全知情,金女士在接受GQ采访时加码爆料:“她本来是完全赞成的,但突然间又说不了。”接着又放出片段视频佐证自己说法。
于是就有了全网爆的2016年。
诅咒人去世这种,实在恶毒
2019年接受《滚石》杂志杂志采访,她说:“当我听到这首歌时,我告诉自己‘我受够了,但如果你想我们交恶,那么请真实点。这不仅仅是一个单一的事件。基本上,我真的厌倦了他和我之间的所有事儿,不仅仅是基于那个电话和那首歌引发的事情。”
此后铺天盖地的指责让小清新消失了整整一年,也有了后来的“黑化”霉。
我在网上看到这句话,觉得很有道理:
这句话的缘起,要从艾伦说起。
去年10月,Ellen DeGeneres 和美国前总统小布什一起在美式橄榄球联盟达拉斯牛仔队的主场贵宾包间一同看了一场比赛,过程中有说有笑,也因此引发了一场声势浩大的口水战。

Ellen后来在节目里用幽默方式回应,让我非常感动:“每个人都是不一样的, 可是我想很多人都忘记了‘不一样’ 是OK的。”
事实上,社交媒体也在走向这个相当不好的风气:观点越来越极端,人群正在被一件件社会事件分裂成不同阵营。
处在更高位置的人可以用制造撕裂获得拥趸,越来越多事例证明这种思维模式和行事逻辑在当下的社会语境下是非常奏效的,但也是非常可怕的。
相反的,据我个人的观察,小清新一直以来面对争议都选择了be nice的方式面对,也因此成了众矢之的。
隔了将近十年,接受《Vogue》采访时,小清新隐晦表达了自己处于被消费的感受:“这是一场大规模的公开羞辱……这是一种非常孤立的体验,我不认为有很多人能真正理解被数百万人大声喊恨你是什么感觉……那不是在做电视节目。”
肯豆曾出现在小清新2015年的“1989”巡演上,金女士2017年又搬旧闻,称妹妹从来就不是和小清新一挂的。
她和水果姐世纪大和解,后者还出演了她的新歌MV。

她的好友之一、女歌手Lorde 2013年就公开抨击过自己,认为小清新太完美了:“泰勒·斯威夫特是那么的完美,那么的遥不可及,我不认为这对年轻女孩有什么好处。”
Lorde本身还非常欣赏侃爷的音乐才华,甚至多次合作,担任后者演唱会嘉宾。
小清新并没有选择拉黑对方,让彼此的粉丝们选边、站队,两人至今还是好朋友。

这些事情都可以撕吧?流量可观吧?反而在事关女性权益等问题上,如今的她态度更加明确,甚至可以用“刚”来形容。
太委屈咋办,继续写歌呗。
对霉粉来说,偶像终得清白应该是高兴的。但高兴过后呢?这样的误解会消失吗?我想不会的,因为这就是我们所处的时代,只是不知道下一次会在谁的身上发生。
很希望多一些人像小清新这样be nice的人,并勇敢坚持。
因为“不一样”,是OK的。
防止未来失联
