'So petty': Internet slams Kanye West as TikTok video mocking Taylor Swift's Grammy wins goes viral
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kanye West, the renowned American rapper, has once again stirred controversy by mocking pop icon Taylor Swift's Grammy wins in a TikTok video, sparking widespread mockery from users. This incident follows his recent drama with Swift during Super Bowl LVIII.
In a separate incident, West attracted attention when his ex-wife Kim Kardashian publicly criticized him and asked him to encourage his current wife, Bianca Censori, to adopt a modest dress code in front of their shared children.
Furthermore, West faced criticism for claiming credit for Swift's success in the music industry and disparaging her fans. His assertions were labeled as 'obsessive', with many pointing out his relentless efforts to portray himself as instrumental in Swift's rise to fame.
Kanye West trolls Taylor Swift over Grammy wins
West appears to be on a relentless streak of trolling the 'Lover' singer, seemingly eager to provoke further discord. According to TMZ, West recently targeted Swift in a TikTok video, boasting about his greater number of Grammy wins compared to hers over the years.
As reported by TMZ, West shared a slideshow featuring images of both himself and the 'Wildest Dreams' singer holding Grammy awards, gradually emphasizing the difference in their respective victories.
As depicted in the clip reported by TMZ, the slideshow begins slowly, with West's narration noting the increasing margin of his wins as Swift's images appear in the first few slides. He asserts, "Not one, Not 6, Not 10," before the final slide displays West's picture with the statement, "But 12 less Grammys then Kanye West," accompanied by an image of him holding three Grammy awards with a smile.
However, contrary to West's assertions, the Grammys website officially acknowledges him with 24 awards, while Swift has amassed 14, highlighting a significant difference and presenting a challenging narrative for West. In the most recent Grammys ceremony, Swift clinched two awards, notably Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for 'Midnights'.
The ongoing tension between West and Swift escalated during Super Bowl events, with reports suggesting Swift intervened to have West removed from seats he had booked for himself and his wife, Bianca Censori, in front of Swift's suite. She was attending to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. West later refuted these claims, dismissing them as mere rumors.
