Swift. In an interview with [_Billboard_](http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/magazine-feature/7525611/kim-kardashian-west-kanye-tv-music), Kardashian West revealed she was “so over it” when it came to the Kimye-Taylor Swift drama, [which has been building for the better part of the past seven years](http://time.com/4411055/kanye-west-taylor-swift-kim-kardashian-feud/), and even asked, “Ugh, do we really have to talk about Taylor Swift?” She did, however, say that Kanye didn’t really care about the notorious phone call and that he has “no hard feelings.” “If it were up to Kanye, it all would probably never have come out,” Kardashian West said. “He can handle it, he has no hard feelings. He doesn’t even really care. I just wanted to protect my husband. I saw him getting a lot of shit. It wasn’t even about a look or anything, or to have this feud — it was like, ‘OK, here’s the truth.’ Done. Let’s all move on. I feel like I don’t want to talk about her anymore.” Read the full interview [here](http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/magazine-feature/7525611/kim-kardashian-west-kanye-tv-music). ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4513246/kim-kardashian-west-release-taylor-swift/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4513246/kim-kardashian-west-release-taylor-swift/"},"headline":"Kim Kardashian West Says Kanye West Has ‘No Hard Feelings’ Towards Taylor Swift","datePublished":"2016-09-29T17:15:44.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:37:10.278Z","description":"\"If it were up to Kanye, it all would probably never have come out.\"","url":"https://time.com/4513246/kim-kardashian-west-release-taylor-swift/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","Kanye West","Taylor Swift","celebrity","Kim Kardashian","Culture","kim kardashian west"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf6d7df2182cfc6b0/6988a81297cdff2dd56adfa8/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-taylor-swift.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltf6d7df2182cfc6b0/6988a81297cdff2dd56adfa8/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-taylor-swift.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Harper's BAZAAR Celebrates \"ICONS By Carine Roitfeld\"","caption":"Harper's BAZAAR Celebrates \"ICONS By Carine Roitfeld\"","creditText":"Gilbert Carrasquillo—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4513246/kim-kardashian-west-release-taylor-swift/","name":"Kim Kardashian West Says Kanye West Has ‘No Hard Feelings’ Towards Taylor Swift"}}]}] ```
