This is far from over, folks! Oh, believe me — it’s just getting started! After Kim Kardashian unleashed the power of her social media by leaking videos of Kanye West rapping the infamous ‘having sex with Taylor Swift line’ in “Famous” to Taylor herself over the phone, all hell broke lose. Katy Perry even had something to say about it! Obviously, Taylor came straight out to defend herself, but she wasn’t the only one. When wind of the escalating feud got to Selena Gomez, she was on Twitter straight away to defend her friend. She tweeted:
There are more important things to talk about… Why can't people use their voice for something that fucking matters?

Truth is last thing we need right now is hate, in any form

Kanye West’s ‘Famous’ Video Premiere — SEE PICS!
A voice of reason — how refreshing! And while Selena’s absolutely right, the truth of the matter is, this feud is something that really does matter to Kim, Kanye, and their family, regardless of what else is going on. Why else would she dedicate almost an entire episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians to Taylor’s ‘lies’ about giving Ye permission to rap about her in his song “Famous?”
But Selena doesn’t need to worry; Taylor is more than capable of defending herself. It only took about 30 mins for Taylor to respond to Kimye’s Snapchat bombshell video drop. ” Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that bitch’ in his song?” she slammed back. “It doesn’t exist because it never happened. You don’t get to control someone’s emotional response to being called that ‘bitch’ in from of the entire world.” What say you to that, Kim and Ye?
HollywoodLifers, are you proud that Selena is standing by her friend and telling the world to, yes, kill’em with kindness?
