Then she gives approval saying “Yeah go with whatever line you think is better, it’s obviously very tongue in cheek either way”. I don’t try to justify it, ’cause I was in the wrong.

“Of course I wanted to like the song”.
Stars jumped onto the social media battleground on both sides.
“She deserves the apology more than anyone”. He reportedly rants: “Taylor never came to my defence at any interview and rode the waves and rode it and rode it”.
“I really appreciate it, the heads up is so nice”. I think if I had to do it all again what would I have done? “Thanks for being so cool about it”, he responds. “If I had a daughter, would I have gone on stage and grabbed the mic from someone else’s?” “I made that bitch famous”.
While it may have seemed that Kim K ended this whole conversation with the Snapchat leaks, it seems it’s far from over. “I don’t want to do rap that makes people feel bad”, the 39-year-old vouches. It doesn’t matter that I sold seven million of that album before you did that, which is what happened, you didn’t know who I was before that. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t. Even asking or seeing if I would be okay with it and I really appreciate it. In a statement released at the time, Swift’s rep said: “Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single “Famous” on her Twitter account”.
“Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me “that bitch” in his song”, writes Swift.
“You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called “that bitch” in front of the entire world”, the post continues. She declined and cautioned him about releasing a song with such a strong misogynistic message. “Taylor was never made aware of the actual lyric, ‘I made that bitch famous'”. “What I give a f– about is you as a person and as a friend”. A song can not be approved if it was never heard. While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye on the phone call, you can not “approve” a song you haven’t heard.

She noted the video did not show her approving the lyric “that bitch” and that West had never played her the full song, as promised.
