Taylor Swift accused of shading Kim Kardashian and Kanye West divorce on Midnights

Fans have accused Taylor Swift of shading Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's divorce on her new album Midnights.

The singer, 32, released her new album which features the song Vigilante Sh*t, with some thinking it is based on her feud with Kanye, as she sings about being 'thick as thieves' with the ex of an enemy.

She belts out: "I don't dress for villains or for innocents. I'm on my vigilante sh*t again."

Taylor fans are coming to the conclusion that she is now friends with Kim despite previously falling out with her ex husband Kanye when he interrupted her speech at the 2009 VMAs.

Some have taken to Twitter to talk about their theory.

One person tweeted: "THIS HAS TO BE ABOUT KIM KARDASHIAN AND TAYLOR OMG … IM SCREAMING."

As another said: "Is vigilante s—t about taylor and kim teaming up to get revenge against kanye because oh my god."

A third wrote: "VIGILANTE S—T IS ABOUT KIM KARDASHIAN OMG!!! GUYS!!!!!!!?????????!!!!!"

While one fan praised Taylor for the subject of the song.

They said: "You can’t tell me this isn’t about Kim Kardashian and Kanye west. We love, adore and respect a petty Taylor Swift."

Vigilante Sh*t is the eighth song on the album and Taylor's first song with a swear word in the title as well as the only song on the album that is solely written by the All Too Well star.

It is also one of Taylor's more vengeful songs on the album, with lyrics including: "I don't start sh*t, but I can tell you how it ends. Don't get sad, get even.

"So on the weekends, I don't dress for friends. Lately I've been dressing for revenge."

However, some fans think the song could be about her feud with former manager Scooter Braun.

The pair fell out when he acquired the rights to her first six albums back in 2019.

Taylor said in November 2020 that when she tried to enter into negotiations with Scooter to regain ownership of her master recordings she said his team wanted her to sign an NDA that allegedly stated said: "I would never say another word about Scooter Braun unless it was positive, before we could even look at the financial records of BMLG."

Scooter has since addressed the situation, saying that he learned an 'important lesson'.

In an interview with NPR's Jay Williams, he said that he wishes he could have handled some parts in a different way.

He said: "I learned an important lesson. When I did that deal, I was under a very strict NDA with the gentleman who owned it, and I couldn't tell any artist. I wasn't allowed to. I wasn't legally allowed to."
