News Update: In case you wondered if this was the so-called “Bronze Spray-Tanned Statue” Taylor Swift mentions in her Kim Kardashian song?

In case you were wondering: Nope, Taylor Swift is not done talking about the time Kim Kardashian leaked her private phone call with Kanye West and attempted to turn the internet against her.

Fans are 100 percent convinced that Tay’s Tortured Poets Department track “thanK you aIMee” is about Kim…in part because the title fully spells her name out in capital letters. Plus, there are the 👀 lyrics—starting with.


When I picture my hometown
There’s a bronze spray-tanned statue of you
And a plaque underneath it
That threatens to push me down the stairs, at our school

‘Kay, so about that “bronze spray-tanned statue” reference—fans did some digging and one person noted that Tay’s potentially referring to a bronze statue of Athena Parthenos in the Nashville Parthenon, which, fun fact, has a giant snake on it

As the people who were around for the early days of Taylor and Kim’s feud are well aware, the musican was spammed with snake emojis on her social media after Kim Kardashian tweeted about “International Snake Day.” Tay then reclaimed the snake narrative during her Reputation era.


ANYWAY! Kim hasn’t responded to Taylor’s song just yet, but while we’re waiting, just a quick reminder of some of the lyrics (via Genius):

And it wasn’t a fair fight


Or a clean kill each time that Aimee stompеd across my grave
And then she wrotе headlines
In the local paper, laughing at each baby step I’d take

Aaaaaand:

I wrote a thousand songs that you find uncool
I built a legacy that you can’t undo
But when I count the scars, there’s a moment of truth
That there wouldn’t be this if there hadn’t been you

Oh, and perhaps the most gasp-inducing:

And maybe you’ve reframed it
And in your mind, you never beat my spirit black and blue
I don’t think you’ve changed much
And so I changed your name and any real defining clues
And one day, your kid comes home singin’
A song that only us two is gonna know is about you
