Taylor Swift has apologized to Nikki Minaj, possibly putting an end to a feud that sparked conversations about race, bias and gender.
Here’s Swift’s tweet:
The “feud” started when Swift responded to a tweet Minaj posted about being slighted by the MTV Video Music Awards. Swift apparently thought the tweet was directed at her:
But Minaj replied that her tweet wasn’t about Swift:
Huh? U must not be reading my tweets. Didn’t say a word about u. I love u just as much. But u should speak on this. @taylorswift13
Minaj’s video for “Anaconda” was not nominated for the VMA’s top award, while Swift’s “Bad Blood” was. Minaj and her supports explained that Swift and her fans missed the hip-hop star’s point.
I’m so glad u guys get to see how this stuff works. Taylor took her music off spotify and was applauded. We launched Tidal & were dragged.
Ryan posted a headline of Taylor saying she loves & supports me. But not me saying the same to her. Lol. Their headline says I took a “jab”?
.@taylorswift13 stop using “support all girls” as an excuse to not be critical of racist media that benefits and glorifies you
I’m baffled as to WHY @taylorswift13 felt the need to come at @NickiMinaj for speaking on behalf of unsung black female entertainers..
