Katy Perry readdressed her Taylor Swift feud for the umpteenth time during an interview with British music magazine NME.
After telling all during her Carpool Karaoke appearance on the Late Late Show in May, Perry explained her decision to open up about her longstanding feud with her fellow singer.
“Well, [Late Late Show host] James Corden makes me and the whole world feel very safe,” Perry told the magazine, via Refinery 29. “No one has asked me about my side of the story, and there are three sides of every story: one, two, and the truth.”
Katy Perry wants Taylor Swift to know she’s no pushover
“I mean, I’m not Buddha — things irritate me,” the singer admitted. “I wish that I could turn the other cheek every single time, but I’m also not a pushover, you know? Especially when someone tries to assassinate my character with little girls . That’s so messed up!”
Taylor Swift used Katy Perry’s collaborator to write ‘Bad Blood’
Swift’s feud with Perry began after Swift allegedly accused Perry of sabotaging her tour by hiring her backup dancers from underneath her. A short time later, Swift teamed up with Perry’s longtime collaborator Max Martin to co-write “Bad Blood.”
“I can’t speak for , but he didn’t know ,” Perry said. “I’m not supposed to tell him what he can and can’t do. I’m very fair; I’m super-duper fair and I’m not one of those people who’s like, ‘You can’t do that because I don’t like that person’. Just, like, you do you, make your own choices… I’m not his mother.”
