In a stunning revelation that challenges years of pop culture lore, Taylor Swift has categorically denied ever orchestrating a boycott against fellow music icon Katy Perry.
The speculation about bad blood between the two superstars reached fever pitch during Swift's 1989 era, with many fans and critics interpreting lyrics in her hit song 'Bad Blood' as a direct shot at Perry.
'The narrative spun out of control,' Swift revealed in a recent interview. 'I never instructed my team, my friends, or my fans to avoid Katy. That's simply not how I operate.'
The Truth Behind the Headlines
Contrary to popular belief, Swift insists the much-publicised feud was largely media fabrication. 'There were moments of tension, absolutely, but the idea that I was running some kind of exclusion campaign is completely false,' she explained.
The Grammy-winning artist expressed frustration at how the story evolved beyond reality, creating a division among fans that she never intended.
From Rivals to Reconciliation
Swift emphasised that any past disagreements have long been resolved, pointing to Perry's literal olive branch gesture in 2018 that marked their public reconciliation.
'We've both grown so much since then,' Swift noted. 'The music industry can create unnecessary competition between women, and we've moved beyond that.'
The singer-songwriter hopes her clarification will finally put the tired feud narrative to rest, allowing both artists to be celebrated for their individual achievements without constant comparison.
