If revenge is a dish best served cold, what do you call how Taylor Swift so perfectly slammed Kanye West at the 2016 Grammys last night? In the words of Beyonce’s ‘Formation’, ladies and gents, we call that ‘swag’ with or without the hot sauce.
After Kanye’s low-blow lyric in his new song ‘famous’ aimed at Taylor Swift in which he raps, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that bitch famous,” Taylor was yet to respond, until now.
In her acceptance speech for Album of the Year, Taylor said:
“As the first woman to win Album of the Year at the Grammys twice, I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame.
“But if you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday, when you get where you are going, you will look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world. Thank you for this moment.”
You go, Tay-Tay!
