Idris Elba: Taylor Swift, Kanye West Made Met Gala ‘Awkward’ – Celebrity News

“It was a bit awkward because Taylor Swift and I had to present an award,” Elba continued. “We were walking through the crowd and obviously, there was a little beef between Taylor and Kanye. I didn’t know any of this. But I was there! And I was, like, ‘Oh, this is awks.'”

Meanwhile, an insider told Us that West and his wife, Kim Kardashian, have moved on.

“Kim and Kanye are not concerned or interested in dredging up the situation with Taylor and hope that Taylor can move on,” a source told Us in August about the video. “Kim and Kanye have been through a lot of real life situations in the last year, so Taylor Swift’s music video is not on their radar,” the insider added at the time.

Swift publicly disapproved of the song’s lyrics — which included the lines “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why, I made that bitch famous” — during her 2016 Grammys acceptance speech. “I want to say to all the young women out there, there are going to be people along the way who will try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments or your fame,” she said at the award ceremony in February 2016. “If you just focus on the work and you don’t let those people sidetrack you, someday when you get where you’re going you’ll look around and you will know that it was you and the people who love you who put you there. And that will be the greatest feeling in the world.”

In July 2016, Kardashian shared Snapchat videos of Swift seemingly approving the song, which inspired the hidden messages in the “LWYMD” video.

Swift upcoming album, Reputation, is scheduled for a November 10 release.
