In the video clips, Kanye reads the lyric, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex”. “I made that b@#$% famous/God damn/I made that b@#$% famous”.

Kim Kardashian has released a video on her Snapchat proving that Taylor Swift DID in fact approve of Kanye West’s lyrics about her in his song Famous.
“Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that b****’ in his song?” she said on Instagram, adding that West failed to deliver on a promise to play the song for her so she could hear what he said.
The footage was apparently recorded by documentarians which West hires for the creation of all his albums, and shows excerpts of the conversation. Swift denied that a conversation ever really took place and that she never fully heard the entire track.
California, where West lives and Swift often visits, is one of the 11 US states that require the consent of each party on a call in order for a recording to be legal. This has caused many people on Twitter to call Taylor Swift a hypocrite.
When Kim Kardashian Snapchatted Taylor Swift’s phone call with Kanye West, not only did she set off a firestorm on social media, she raised questions over whether doing so violated privacy laws. It’s the ongoing narrative of West constantly antagonizing the sweet, innocent Taylor Swift, as she simply waits, bemused, for the world to come to her defense. When did Swift learn she had been recorded and what did she do about it? Sunday’s episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians was also heavily dedicated to the he-said/she-said war of words between Kanye and Taylor.
Not to let Swift off the hook too much, but don’t we all sometimes try to people-please instead of say what we actually feel? Still, her account was thrust into the spotlight on Sunday night after she posted several Snaps showing her husband discussing his song “Famous” with Taylor Swift. In the series of videos, Swift can be heard thanking West for the heads up about his controversial track “Famous”.
Swift later posted a lengthy statement saying not all of West’s lyrics about her were revealed to her.

“That moment when Kanye West secretly records your phone call, then Kim posts it on the Internet”, Swift wrote, alongside a statement calling the whole ordeal “character assassination” and expressing her desire to just be left alone.
