Taylor Swift has been in several feuds over the years with quite a few different celebrities. There have been some ex-boyfriends, coworkers, and even friends in the industry. Most of the people she has fought with have had pretty deep pockets, and bank accounts that would put ours to shame.
We have compiled a list of some of the richest celebrities who Taylor has feuded with over the years. Some have mended their relationship with Taylor, while others are still on the rocks as to where they stand. Keep reading to learn about ten of the richest celebs Taylor Swift has feuded with!
10. John Mayer ($40 Million)
Taylor Swift and John Mayer broke up back in 2010 and it ended up with both singers at each other throats. She wrote a song about their breakup called Dear John and Mayer himself responded in the media to say how humiliated he felt about the whole thing.
There was then a huge debacle on Twitter when John Mayer tweeted out on Taylor's birthday how it was "the lamest day of the year." We can all agree that we are on Team Swift for this feud, even if they have pushed the dirt between them under the rug.
9. Scooter Braun ($23 Million)
This is a more recent feud that came to light when Scooter Braun bought Big Machine Label, which was Taylor Swift's old record label. This means that he now has ownership of her first 6 albums, and this singer didn't see this coming. She claims she was never told of the sale and not allowed to buy her old albums.
It is quite upsetting as she is no longer allowed to perform her old hits as they are barring her from performing them. Her songs are only making this man wealthier, despite all of the hard work Taylor alone put into the lyrics.
8. Nicki Minaj ($75 Million)
Nicki Minaj had a falling out with Taylor Swift happened back in 2015 after the MTV Music Video Awards. Swift's Bad Blood video had been nominated for Music Video of the Year, while Minaj's song Anaconda had been up for 3 different awards.
Minaj called out Taylor Swift for only being nominated because of her slim figure, even though she denied that her tweets were directed at Taylor. They eventually forgave each other after the incident, and since then we have heard of no conflicts arising between the two singers.
7. Calvin Harris ($207 Million)
We all thought at one time that Calvin Harris and Taylor Swift would live happily ever after, that is until it all went up in flames. It seemed like this is one breakup that would be smooth sailing as they appeared to still be friends, but suddenly they both cleared their social media of photos of one another.
Harris eventually released a track that fans read as being about Taylor, and it came to light that part of their breakup was over a song they had worked on together. There were a lot of blurred lines and hurt feelings, but it seems like they have both picked up and moved on.
6. Kim Kardashian West ($150 Million)
Kim Kardashian West was put on Taylor's list when she joined up with her husband, Kanye West, in hurting her reputation. Kanye released an album back in 2016 that referenced Taylor, and she claimed to be humiliated by it since she had no idea what the lyrics would say.
Kim came back at her with video proof, but there were some fishy cuts in the video that had fans siding with Taylor on this one. It has continued as Taylor announced her album release, and Kim decided she was going to release her new perfume on the same day. We doubt this feud will ever end the way it has been played out over the years.
5. Katy Perry ($330 Million)
Katy Perry and Taylor Swift recently rekindled their friendship, but they weren't always on speaking terms. It started when Perry started dating Swift's ex-boyfriend, John Mayer and continued when they fought over backup dancers.
The two singers both wrote songs about the other the dragged them both through the mud. We are happy these two powerhouses in the industry have finally made peace, and hopefully, we will see a collaboration from them in the future.
4. Kendall Jenner ($18 Million)
Kendall Jenner might not be the richest person on this list, but she still has more money than most of us will ever see in our lifetime. Jenner and Swift used to be friends once upon a time until she decided to side with her family.
She chose to stick with Kim Kardashian and her husband, rather than show support for Taylor. It only grew worse when Jenner started seeing one of Taylor's ex-boyfriends, Harry Styles, and it was the last straw between these two celebrities.
3. Kanye West ($160 Million)
It is hard to forget the moment Kanye West slighted Taylor on stage during her acceptance speech at the VMAs back in 2009. He basically told Taylor that Beyoncé deserved the award instead of her and everyone was speechless.
West apologized later for his actions, and Taylor wrote the song called Innocent where she accepts his apology. Kanye took back his apology in 2013 and ever since then it has been back and forth between them. We doubt they will ever come to terms with one another, and we are waiting for the next scandal to pop up between the artists.
2. Demi Lovato ($15 Million)
These two singers used to be friends back at the start of their careers, but they drifted apart in the 2010s. Many say it has something to do with their relationships with Joe Jonas, as Demi Lovato was his best friend and didn't like the way Taylor portrayed him.
She has continued to rip Swift for being wealthier than she is and not speaking up about political issues. She even stood up for her manager, Scooter Braun, who Taylor is currently fighting with as mentioned earlier. This is another friendship that will take a lot to heal, and we doubt it will happen anytime soon.
1. Joe Jonas ($18 Million)
This couple only lasted a few short months back in 2008, and the aftermath was brutal for Joe Jonas. He broke up with Swift in under 30 seconds over the phone which is how she came up with the song called Forever and Always.
The Jonas Brothers released their own song called Much Better in response and they were not on speaking terms until 2015. Swift has recently admitted that dragging Joe was wrong of her, even if they can laugh about it now.
