Billboard slammed for ‘nasty’ Taylor Swift and Kanye West clip that ‘falsely depicted her’
X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday.“We have removed the clip from our video and sincerely regret the harm we caused with this error.”In the video montage celebrating Swift’s accolades after being named the second-greatest pop star of the 21st century, Billboard mistakenly included a clip from West’s controversial 2016 “Famous” music video, which featured a naked wax figurine of the pop star laying in the rapper’s bed.While Billboard removed and reposted the video celebrating Swift, the apologetic statements comes after receiving backlash online, as Swifties slammed the clip as “problematic,” “nasty” and “a slap in the face.” Meanwhile, according to Time, hashtags such as #BillboardIsOverParty and #BillboardApologizeToTaylor trended on X.The Post has reached out to Swift’s representatives for comment.The music video and song — in which he says, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/ Why? I made that bitch famous” — is part of a yearslong feud between West and Swift dating back to 2009.Swift took issue with the lyrics and the depiction of herself in West’s music video in 2016, and Kim Kardashian, the rapper’s wife at the time, attempted to defend her husband by claiming that he got approval from the “Lavender Haze” crooner before releasing it. As alleged proof, Kardashian posted video footage from a phone call between West and Swift, in which the singer seemingly agreed to her inclusion in West’s song.

Riding with Bey: How Beyoncé got Willie Jones to saddle up in the ‘fourth quarter’ for ‘Cowboy Carter’
“Texas Hold ’Em” singer made a last-minute pitch to country upstart Willie Jones to appear on her new “Cowboy Carter” opus — with the album deadline fast approaching to make her March 29 release date — it was either go big or stay home.“It was literally in the fourth quarter,” Jones, 29, told The Post of recording his “Just for Fun” duet with Beyoncé in the final stages of “Cowboy Carter.” “It was literally … end of February, February 20-something.”Jones got the call that would change his life from Alex Vickery, who produced his vocals on “Just for Fun” — which, despite its title, is a decidedly moody meditation.“She’s like, ‘Are you sitting down?’ I was like, ‘Yeah.’ And she’s like, ‘You know Beyoncé is working on a country album … [and] she loves your voice.’ I was like, ‘Are you serious?’ She was like, ‘Can you come out here tomorrow?’ I was like, ‘Send the car.’ ”And now the Shreveport, Louisiana native is galloping into history as one of the Black country artists spotlighted by Beyoncé Knowles Carter on “Cowboy Carter” — the undisputed event record of 2024 — which just scored the biggest sales week of the year in its chart-topping debut on the Billboard 200. Released to rave reviews (including mine), the LP also made Queen B the first Black woman to reign over the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, while simultaneously holding the top three spots on the Hot Country Songs chart led by her No.
