Taylor Swift renames song after Kanye West after stopping his album from hitting No 1
Taylor Swift recently updated the title of her song 'thanK you aIMee' to 'thank You aimEe' for the release of the live version performed in London in June.
This subtle change, which alters the capitalization to spell out 'YE,' has sparked considerable interest among Swifties.
This update follows Swift's album 'The Tortured Poets Department' maintaining its 14th consecutive week at No 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, stalling Kanye West's (Ye) and Ty Dolla $ign’s album 'Vultures 2' from topping the charts.
The live version of 'thank You aimEe 'and 'Mean', released on August 15, features a mashup from her June 22 Eras tour show.
Previously, the original title's capitalization spelled 'KIM', hinting at Kim Kardashian, which contributed to speculation about the song’s subject.
The new title’s capitalization of 'YE' appears to be a deliberate nod to Swift's ongoing feud with Kanye West.

UK minister uses Taylor Swift-themed video to address ticket touts issue
The UK government is addressing the issue of ticket touts with plans to launch a consultation on secondary sales this autumn.
In a video linked to Taylor Swift's Eras Tour UK dates, Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds announced intentions to introduce consumer protections for ticket resales to combat exorbitant fees and scams.
The message was laden with Taylor Swift puns while referencing some of her famous hits, including 'Love Story' and 'I Knew You Were Trouble'.
Reports from the Guardian highlight the problem, noting that touts have been reselling tickets at inflated prices—such as £85 tickets for Adele being sold for £24,000.
Additionally, fans have fallen victim to scams involving fake tickets, with Lloyds Bank estimating £1 million lost on fraudulent tickets for Swift’s tour.
