Is Katy Perry Feuding with Taylor Swift?

Early Tuesday morning (September 9^th), just hours after Taylor Swift’s Rolling Stone interview, Katy Perry took to twitter to post an ambiguous tweet, possibly directed towards the “Shake It Off” singer.

The “Dark Horse” singer ominously tweeted out about a female rival using a Mean Girls reference.

In Swift’s interview, she revealed that her new album, 1989, has a song called “Bad Blood,” written about a “harsh” person in her life.

“For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not,” said Swift. “She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, ‘Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life? She did something so horrible. I was like, ‘Oh, we’re just straight-up enemies.’ And it wasn’t even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I’m surprisingly non-confrontational – you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It’s awkward, and I don’t like it.”

Such as in previous hit songs written about famous ex-boyfriends (“We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”, “Forever And Always,” etc.), merely mentioning the unnamed female frenemy only begins a myriad of questions trying to piece the puzzles together, as Swift already assumed would likely happen.

“And I know people are going to obsess over who it’s about, because they think they have all my relationships mapped out. But there’s a reason there are not any overt call-outs in that song,” Swift explains. “My intent was not to create some gossip-fest. I wanted people to apply it to a situation where they felt betrayed in their own lives.”

Swift then told Rolling Stone that “there might have been a personal element to the conflict.” Perhaps this may have something to do with her previously dating John Mayer (and wrote “Dear John” for the lad), or perhaps Perry’s statement has nothing to do with the country-now-pop singer. Only time will tell.

However, from what we do know, both of the pop stars were friends at a certain a point in time. Last summer may have caused some turmoil to arise, when three of Swift’s back-up dancers left in the middle of Swift’s “Red” tour to go work with Perry’s “Prism” world tour.
