In a revealing interview for her 2023 Time Person of the Year profile, Taylor Swift shared insight into her life after the infamous 2016 phone call with Kanye West, shedding light on the toll it took on her mental health.
As reported by UPROXX, the controversial call, which was initially thought to have given West permission to reference Swift in his song “Famous,” took a different turn when the actual lyrics included derogatory language that Swift claims she did not authorize. Kim Kardashian leaked snippets of the conversation on her Snapchat story, sparking a fierce debate among fans about transparency and victimhood.
Swift, who disappeared from public view following the leak, revealed the emotional impact of the incident. She admitted to moving to a foreign country, isolating herself in a rental home for a year and struggling with trust issues that strained her relationships.
The “Lavender Haze” singer explained: “You have a completely fabricated frame, in an illegally recorded phone call, that Kim Kardashian edited and then published to tell everyone that I was a liar.”
She continued: “That took me psychologically to a place I had never been before. I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid of receiving phone calls. I pushed away most of the people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone anymore. I fell very, very hard.”
During this period of confinement, Swift hinted at the challenges she faced, emphasizing the difficulty answering phone calls and the fear that invaded her daily life. It wasn’t until the release of her sixth studio album, “Reputation,” that Swift resurfaced.
Taylor Swift’s latest project
In the interview, Swift also teased her upcoming project, “Reputation (Taylor’s Version).” Drawing an analogy to mythical quests, Swift described the process of re-recording her as similar to collecting horcruxes and infinity stones, with echoes of Gandalf’s voice guiding her through each cast. Despite her challenges, Swift remains committed to her artistic journey, transforming her experiences into what she imagines as a cinematic narrative.
