Taylor Swift Slams Kanye West During 2016 Grammys Speech

Thank you to T Mobile for sponsoring this episode.

Leave it to Taylor Swift to pick the perfect platform to respond to Kanye West’s unflattering lyric about her. All that and more right here on Clevver’s Trophy Life.
Let’s be real here, is anyone really surprised by Taylor’s clap back to Kanye on stage at the Grammys after accepting her award for Album of the Year? Didn’t think so.
It’s been days since Kanye’s infamous lyric from his new song ‘Famous’ made headlines all over the internet. If you need a little refresher, the rapper dropped a line that many saw as a diss towards the beloved T-Swizzle. He rapped in his song QUOTE “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/I made that b*tch famous.” Yeah, it was pretty bad. Anyway, after Taylor’s brother Austin publicly responded to that line by tossing his Yeezys in the trash, the world was waiting for Taylor’s response and boy, did she deliver.
After being announced as the winner for Album of the year, Taylor made her way up on that very stage to accept her Grammy and gave a speech that will be remembered by many generations to come. The songstress started off her speech by thanking those who helped her get to where she is and made all of this possible, her collaborators, fans, etc., etc.
But before Tay Tay walked off that stage, girlfriend threw so much shade towards Yeezy, she didn’t even have to mention him by name. Here’s what she had to say:
It’s so typical of Taylor to lace all of the shade in a very moving and inspiring message to all the young women out there who look up to her, don’tcha think so?
Anyway, what did you think of Taylor’s indirect jab towards Kanye? Did you even notice the shade or nah? Let me know in the comment section below!

Ohh, Selena looked so proud of Taylor 😢

[CarAmeL]

she's absolutely right though....her success is hers. Maybe Kanye forgets the only reason he was on stage dissing her that day was BECAUSE she had won over Beyonce, as well as the other nominees. What he did that day may have got her fans to rally with her and be stronger fans but she still has to release good music regardless to keep them and she definitely has 👏👌

[JD-enti]

This was very classy, she didn't even have to call him by name. It was a smart move of her.

[CekaDStar]

Taylor be making #1's and accepting all the awards while kanye's album won't even top the charts!! He always talk about how he's a genius but can't even make it on the radio

[AA-spgs]

She made him famous, he didn't make her famous!!!!

[lemonpie]

this is why kanye should stop embarrassing himself

[gruffyart]

I don't think the whole world was waiting for the response but whatever

[sophiaswan]

It's not shady if she's standing up for herself...

[euphoriaprism]

at least she is classy about. kanye acts like a child, people should wake up and stop supporting him so he can get see the taste of failure

[sabrinaholm]

When I read the headline I was like "she couldn't just leave it" but then I watched it, and she just stood up for herself, and did it in a very elegant way, by spreading a message to young girls, which is honestly the best thing she could have done.

[lunaolivia]

She is just Classic, ahe is the only person who can respond to something like that in a classic and still nice way, while helping young women ✨💕

[marlowwvw]

YES. I'VE BEEN PATIENTLY WAITING FOR CLEVVER TO POST THIS SPECIFIC VIDEO LOL

[imhungry]

I love how she didn't need to respond so rudely or drop any names, she did it in such an inspirational way. That just shows how much more mature she is than Kanye.

[amandas]

should have said "kanye what's good?" 😂😂

[ashmac]

I love how she did it in a nice and classy way.

[SuperBizalz]

Swift was already famous and accepting a GRAMMY, when Kanye interrupted her, so that HE could get more fame.

Taylor helped Kanye's fame by putting his name on the lips of people that had never even heard of him.

Kanye was hoping for Swift to mention him by name, but she denied him the extra limelight. Kanye won't be happy about that.

[applepie]

I wonder what will happen to Kendall and Taylor's relationship lmao it's going to be so awkward

[wparker]

I'm a man that listen to all genres of music.pop music, rap music, I just love music. I will not take away the fact that Taylor Swift is an incredible artist not only in the singing side but on the writing side. so congratulations to her for winning album of the year. but one of the earlier comments one of the people said Kanye call himself a genius but can't make it to the radio. if you really did any true history about music and his music he's always on the radio. because even if he's not singing and rapping 80% of the music you hear is produced by Kanye West. so now you might not hear his voice if that's not the music you're looking for, but a lot of the music you listen too has Kanye stamp on it. now to be truthful I think the man's a idiot when it comes to the way he handles himself.but if you truly love music there is no doubt that Kanye West is exactly what he said when it come to music. a genius

[samanthaj]

She didn't throw shade at all, she just stood up for herself

[allibell]

Love Taylor such an intelligent lovely lady respect!
