Snake Day Strikes Back: Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian Feud Rekindled.

Eight years after the infamous "snake" tweet ignited a pop culture firestorm, Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian's feud is back in the spotlight thanks to National Snake Day.

National Snake Day Gets Sassy

July 16th holds a special significance for Swifties (Taylor Swift fans). It's not just National Snake Day; it's a reminder of a bitter public battle. In 2016, Kim Kardashian ignited social media with a tweet aimed at Taylor, reading: "Wait it's legit National Snake Day?!?!? They have holidays for everybody, I mean everything these days!"

This tweet stemmed from a feud between Kim's then-husband Kanye West and Taylor Swift. West's song "Famous" included the lyric "I made that b***h famous," which he claimed Taylor approved of beforehand. However, Taylor denied this, and Kim, seeking to prove Kanye's point, leaked a snippet of a phone call where Taylor seemed to be aware of the lyric.

From Victim to Victorious

The leak sparked a social media frenzy, with Taylor's online presence flooded with snake emojis. However, the pop icon wouldn't be silenced. Swift famously reclaimed the snake image, using it as a powerful theme for her 2017 album "Reputation." The album, with its lead single "Look What You Made Me Do," channeled Taylor's experience and took aim at the online trolls.

The Feud Continues: ThanK You AIMee and National Snake Day

Fast forward to 2024. Taylor's latest album, "The Tortured Poets Department," reignited the feud with a song titled "ThanK You AIMee." Fans believe the capitalized letters spell out "Kim," hinting at unresolved issues. Now, with National Snake Day back in the mix, Swifties are buzzing with speculation.

Social Media Erupts: #RepTV and Snake Day Shenanigans

Fans flooded the newly renamed X platform (formerly Twitter) with snake references, potential Repuation album re-recording announcements, and playful jabs at Kim Kardashian. Here's a glimpse into the online chatter:

  • "Happy National Snake Day to all those who celebrate."
  • "International Snake Day? Never forget how Kim…" (references Taylor's successful Reputation tour)
  • "Is Rep TV coming? National Snake Day feels suspicious…"

A Look Back and a Longing for Resolution

While Kim, in 2019, claimed the trio had moved on, Taylor's recent comments and "Thank You AIMee" suggest otherwise. In a 2023 interview, she expressed a desire for an apology from those who "bullied" her. The TIME Person of the Year profile detailed the devastating impact of the feud, pushing Taylor to isolation and a move abroad.

The Future of the Feud: Forgiveness or Forever Foes?

The recent online activity suggests fans are eager for a conclusion. While a source close to Kim claims she's over it, Taylor's lyrics hint at lingering hurt. Whether reconciliation is possible or if the feud will continue to slither through social media, only time will tell.
