Fans Sniff Drama as Billie Eilish Sends a Special Gift to Kim Kardashian Amidst Her Chart Showdown With Taylor Swift

Published 05/21/2024, 10:47 PM EDT

Taylor Swift's clash with Kim Kardashian is practically a staple in pop culture history. What began with Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, giving in to his intrusive thoughts at the 2009 VMAs, spiraled into a dramatic showdown between the style maven and the music sensation in no time. The drama only reached heights as soon as fans started digging up all the nods in Swift’s latest album, 'The Tortured Poets Department,' which allegedly featured at least one track inspired by the feud. And thanks to Billie Eilish, it looks like this feud is taking on a whole new life.

Billie Eilish recently dropped off some goodies from her latest album, 'HIT ME HARD AND SOFT', at Kim Kardashian's doorstep, and the SKIMS mogul made sure to give it a shoutout on her Instagram story. This move could not have come at a better time, right in the middle of a fan-fueled beef between the ‘lovely’ singer and Taylor Swift. So far, it all seemed just speculation and hearsay from fans who were reading too much into every little interaction. However, Eilish's decision to mingle with the Kardashians for her new album seems to have confirmed fans' theories.

For those out of the loop, it all began with Billie Eilish's chat with Billboard, where she spoke out against the craze for producing countless vinyl records. Fans immediately interpreted it as a dig at the ‘Cruel Summer’ singer who has been riding that particular trend. The speculations of beef got even stronger when Taylor Swift announced three new variants of 'The Tortured Poets Department' right as Eilish dropped her newest album, leading fans to accuse the ‘Red’ mastermind of trying to edge out her competition on the charts.

Opinions split on Billie Eilish allegedly siding with Kim Kardashian over Taylor Swift

This is not the first time fans have been up in arms about celebrities, especially those in Taylor Swift's circle, engaging with Kim Kardashian. Just a while back, Swifties got all riled up over Sabrina Carpenter, joining SKIMS as their new face. And they have also called out Lana Del Rey for getting too cozy with the reality TV star, also known as Swift's nemesis, at the Met Gala. And fans made sure to make their voices heard on that one. 

Many fans cautioned Billie Eilish to not mess with Taylor Swift. 

Meanwhile, some just could not wrap their heads around why sending a PR package to another celebrity was such a big deal.
