Taylor Swift said to be ‘livid’ and ‘horrified’ over her nude lookalike in Kanye West’s new video
It’s the latest spat in a long list of feuds between the two stars
TAYLOR Swift is reportedly “horrified” over Kanye West’s video for his new single featuring her naked lookalike.
The Blank Space star is believed to be “livid” and feels betrayed by the rapper who is seen lying in bed next to a group of naked celebrity doppelgangers.
Kanye is in the middle and to his right is a naked blonde who is the spitting image of Miss Swift.
And the pop star is not happy about it at all as a source close to the singer said: “Taylor is livid. Taylor is horrified [by the ‘Famous’ music video]. Taylor didn’t know what to do when she heard about what Kanye did.”
The source added to Hollywoodlife.com: “She is bewildered, feels betrayed and is beyond frustrated with Kanye. It is like a complete nightmare.
“Taylor is p***** to say the least!”
The Sun Online has contacted Taylor's reps for comment.
The video is to accompany Kanye’s new song called Famous which includes the lyrics: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ I made that b**** famous.”
But while Kanye maintains that Taylor knew about the lyrics, she claimed that he didn’t seek her approval over the track.
However, the Sun revealed last week that a taped phone conversation in which she gives her permission exists even though she got her lawyers to get the recording destroyed.
A source close to Kanye said: “Taylor got her lawyers to threaten Kanye and demanded that the recording was deleted.

“They stressed the phone call was confidential and that publishing it would violate her rights.
“It validates that a taped conversation where Taylor was on board with the song does exist, and just shows how worried she is about the truth coming out.”
Speaking to Vanity Fair about the jaw-dropping video, Kanye said: “It’s not in support or anti any of [the people in the video]. It’s a comment on fame.”
This is not the first time that Taylor and Kanye have come to verbal blows – in 2009, as Taylor was accepting the gong for the best female Video at the MTV VMAs, Kanye ran onto the stage and tried to grab the award from her while shouting: “Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you, I'll let you finish, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!"
