Taylor Swift is digging into one of the most fraught relationships of her career – not with one of her celebrity exes, but with Kanye West.
In her new Rolling Stone cover story, Swift describes in detail how she attempted to reconnect with Kanye in 2015, after his infamous onstage crashing of her Video Music Awards speech in 2009.
As Swift fans know, she and West's issues would only snowball into disaster after she and he attempted a friendship – he would later name-check her on his “Famous” song, only for her to protest and his wife, Kim Kardashian, to claim that Swift had actually approved of the lyric all along.
“I started to feel like we reconnected, which felt great for me – because all I ever wanted my whole career after that thing happened in 2009 was for him to respect me,” she said about West, describing how their ensuing friendship, including dinners out together, felt like “I was healing some childhood rejection or something from when I was 19.”

Kris Jenner Tackled By Kim Kardashian's Security Team
Kris Jenner takes a tumble in this exclusive clip from Sunday's new Keeping Up With the Kardashians—apparently, at the hands of her daughter's home security team.
Details of the altercation remain a little murky at this point, but Kim Kardashian is still understandably panicked when Khloe Kardashian calls to tell her, “Your security just f–king tackled mom.” Question mark. Exclamation point. Question mark. Question mark. Question mark.
“We just called 911,” the Good American boss continues, as Kris shouts “my neck!” in the background. “This is crazy.”
It seems safe to say all parties would probably have to agree on that, but can we back up for a second? What is going on right now?
