Kim Kardashian and daughter North West dance to Taylor Swift despite Kanye controversies

Kim Kardashian seems to have turned a new leaf for the new year. Everyone’s favourite TikTok mother-daughter duo, Kim and North West, have posted a new dance video that has a lot of fans wondering if there is no more Bad Blood between Taylor Swift and the Kardashian-West family.

If you’re an avid TikTok scroller you’ll know North West has had her fair share of viral hits and takes every trend in her stride.

While the account is monitored by her mother Kim Kardashian, 42, North is the main poster, however she sometimes ropes Kim into taking part.

On Thursday, the 9 year old shared a video of her and her mom dancing and lip-syncing to Taylor Swift’s ‘Shake it Off’, which if you’re a pop-culture savant, you’ll know is a tad controversial choice in song.

The feud between Kim’s ex-husband Kanye West, 45, and Taylor Swift, 33, dates back to 2009 when Kanye infamously took the microphone from Taylor's hand as she was accepting her award for Best Female Video at the VMA’s.

In 2016, Kanye West performed ‘Famous,’ which the lyrics included the line "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. Why? I made that bitch famous." The line was reportedly approved by Swift following a phone conversation between the pair where she "gave the thumbs up."

After this report, a statement from Taylor's team was released saying that "Kanye did not call for approval, but to ask Taylor to release his single ‘Famous’ on her Twitter account.”

This is where Kim gets involved as she hit back at Taylor, calling her a 'snake' for saying she had 'no idea' Kanye would call her a 'b****' in the song.

Since Kim filed for a divorce from the rapper in February 2021, the reality TV star and entrepreneur seems to have distanced herself from any of her ex’s drama and last year even admitted to liking a lot of Swift’s songs.

“I really like a lot of her songs. They're all super cute and catchy,” she said.

In recent interviews, Kim has also admitted it is tough work protecting her four children from their dad’s controversies, so taking part in North’s fun video shows she’s not willing to drag her kids through any old dramas.
