So what happens when two big and award-winning singers get into a catfight? Katy Perry and Taylor Swift are taking their rift to a different level. A 'who-has-the-best-song' battle is may very well be on its way as Katy Perry officially registers a new song called '1984'. Is this a hit back at Taylor's very successful '1989' album? Hollywood Life has the juiciest scoops.
Tay-tay, look out! The music publisher BMI in their website confirms that Katy is preparing a track - that for some sort of coincidence, not - is titled '1984' which is the latter's year of birth... just like Taylor's inspiration for her latest album title, '1989'. We saw what you did there.
Taylor's side of the story
Without naming Perry, Taylor in an interview talked about the brewing feud between them.
"She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me.
"And I'm surprisingly non-confrontational - you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It's awkward, and I don't like it."
Katy's side of the story
In a report by the Mirror, Perry was quoted to be saying, "If somebody is trying to defame my character, you're going to hear about it." This is in response to Taylor hinting that Bad Blood is about a certain artist who is mean to her.
"Watch out for the Regina George in sheep's clothing..." referring to the villain in the Mean Girls movie played by Rachel McAdams.
"Katy thinks revenge is a dish best served cold," someone from Katy's camp tells HEAT. "She's even more determined to show people what she called 'the real Taylor.' She's writ in some big, anthemic-type song that'll feature dirt on Taylor that John's told her from when they used to date."
Youch! Is there a Project Demolish Taylor Katy and John team-up? This is just getting too intense to handle. But there is more! According to Hollywood Life, Katy is also set to appear in Madonna's celeb-filled video of her own, maybe Katy's another way of revenge for Swift's similar-themed Bad Blood video.
We could all just grab a popcorn for now and wait 'til another shot is fired and another bomb is dropped. We can't wait to know about Taylor's 'dirt' that John Myer allegedly knows about.
