Is Kim Kardashian losing her Instagram followers after new Taylor Swift diss track?
Following the release of Taylor Swift’s new song thanK you aIMee in The Tortured Poets Department, Kim Kardashian’s Instagram following saw a drop. Since Friday, the reality star has lost almost 500,000 Instagram followers. Some fans have even commented on her recent photos, mentioning the song and its lyrics.
Before the release of her new album, Kim Kardashian had 364.3 million followers. However, as of now, that number has decreased to 363.8 million. Comments on her most recent photo, which shows her having fun on vacation with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney, are filled with the new song.
Several users just commented ‘thanK you aIMee’ in the comments. One wrote, “Keeping up with the aIMees.” Another said, “You should definitely listen to the song thanK you aIMee!”
For those who don’t know, it all started when Taylor’s acceptance speech at the 2009 VMAs was interrupted by Kanye West, Kim’s ex-husband, who said Taylor didn’t deserve her best female video award. Later, Kanye rapped in his 2016 song Famous, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b*tch famous.” Taylor criticized the song, claiming it was sexist. However, Kim supported Kanye in a Keeping Up With the Kardashians episode that year. She even shared clips of Kanye and Taylor having a phone conversation to show that Taylor had given her OK for the song’s release. Following that, a second leaked video showed Kim and Kanye speaking with Taylor on the phone without fully disclosing to her the contents of the song. Several of the songs on Taylor’s 2017 album Reputation made reference to the incident.
