Taylor Swift Throws Shade at Haters Before Singing Kim Kardashian Diss Track 'thanK you aIMee'

Taylor Swift dropped a powerful and scathing statement about her haters before singing her alleged Kim Kardashian diss track at a recent Eras Tour stop.

On Saturday, June 22, the 34-year-old "The Tortured Poets Department" singer marked the second night of her Eras Tour at London's Wembley Stadium. Before starting the acoustic segment of her show, she dropped a message to everyone who spoke ill about her.

"It really makes me think about how every time someone talks s---, it just makes me work even harder and it makes me even tougher," Swift said. "So, it also makes me incredibly thankful for those people."

The "So Long, London" singer then proceeded with her performance of "thank you aIMee," which Swifties have long assumed to be about the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum amid their long-standing feud.

Swift notably mashed up the track's lyrics with her Speak Now song, "Mean," which was about her critics.

The "You Belong With Me" hitmaker developed a rift with Kardashian after the latter's ex-husband, Kanye West, released the song "Famous."

The recent comment came months after Swift opened up about how Kardashian's stories about her affected her in the past.

"You have a fully manufactured frame job, in an illegally recorded phone call, which Kim Kardashian edited and then put out to say to everyone that I was a liar," Swift told TIME Magazine after becoming the Person of the Year. "That took me down psychologically to a place I've never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn't leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls. I pushed away most people in my life because I didn't trust anyone anymore. I went down really, really hard."

Per Us Weekly sources, "thanK you aIMee" was Swift's final words in the feud.

Aside from the song, Swift seemingly referenced Kardashian and West on another TTPD song, "Cassandra." The track focused on Greek mythology about the daughter of Priam and Hecuba who has the gift of prophecy. Cassandra is cursed after rejecting Apollo, and people choose not to believe her prophecies afterward.
