 Entertainment News | May 5, 2025

A Playful Nod to the Past

In a delightful twist, Taylor Swift recently shared a humorous throwback photo that playfully references her infamous 2009 MTV Video Music Awards incident with Kanye West. The image, posted on her social media, features a jar of homemade jam with a handwritten note that reads:(New York Post)

“Yo Ed – I’m really happy 4 you and I’m gonna let you finish but this is the best JAM OF ALL TIME.”(New York Post)

This clever nod mirrors Kanye’s interruption of Swift’s acceptance speech years ago, turning a moment of controversy into one of camaraderie and humor. The note was directed to Ed Sheeran, a close friend of Swift’s, who shared the photo on his Instagram account, “Teddy’s Old Phone.” Fans quickly recognized the reference, with many applauding Swift’s witty comeback.

The Backstory: A Decade-Long Feud

The relationship between Taylor Swift and Kanye West has been tumultuous since the 2009 VMAs, when Kanye interrupted Swift’s acceptance speech, claiming Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time. Despite attempts at reconciliation, tensions flared again in 2016 when Kanye released the song “Famous,” featuring controversial lyrics about Swift. This led to a public dispute, further fueled by Kim Kardashian’s release of alleged private conversations. Over the years, Swift has addressed the feud through her music, notably in her 2017 album “Reputation.” (Time, New York Post, Newsweek)

A Subtle Shade in Her Music

In addition to the playful note, Taylor Swift has incorporated subtle references to Kanye West in her music. On her 2024 album “The Tortured Poet’s Department,” she released a track titled “thank You aimEe,” with the capitalized letters spelling out “YE,” a nickname Kanye has used. This change followed Kanye’s mention of Swift and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, in his album “Vultures 2,” where rapper Lil Wayne referenced Kelce in the line, “I twist my Taylor spliffs tight at the end like Travis Kelce.” Swift’s response, wearing an “I Bet You Think About Me” T-shirt during her Eras Tour performance in Warsaw, further fueled speculation among fans about her subtle dig at Kanye.
