<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The singer jumped (handsome) head in first to the feud between <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/gallery/stars/kim-kardashian/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">Kim Kardashian</a>, Kanye West and Taylor Swift on Monday evening, sharing a photo of him and Kanye on Facetime.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But that wasn't the noteworthy part.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">No, the noteworthy part of Bieber's post was the caption he attached to the image of himself, West, manager Scooter Braun and another unnamed individual who was on the other end of the call.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Taylor Swift what up," Bieber wrote.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ouch. Cold, Justin. Also: unnecessary.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We're not really sure if anyone who is wearing sunglasses indoors ought to be taunting anybody else.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Swift, of course, has been on the receiving end of endless slams, insults and slights over the past couple weeks.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It all started when Kardashian released footage of her husband on the phone with Swift, running by her a few lyrics from his song, "Famous."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Swift appeared to give approval to various lines, even one that referred to Kanye thinking he and Taylor "might still have sex."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Kim shared this video to show the world that Swift is not nearly as innocent as she pretends to be, as the artist had previously acted all shocked and offended when West's song went viral.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A week after Kim dropped this evidence on the world, she took to Snapchat again in order to hurl more shade at Swift.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This time, she filmed herself and a friend singing along to "Famous," specifically the lyric in which Kanye raps about possibly banging Taylor in the future.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Yes, for some reason, Kim thought it would offend Swift to sing about her own husband considering intercourse with another woman.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Bieber and West, meanwhile, are long-time pals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">They previously worked on a remix of the young star's 2011 track, "Runaway Love."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In September of last year, Bieber opened up about the collaboration, telling MTV News:</span></div>
<div id="content_3_btf_waypoint" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"Kanye’s a talker. You get him in a room and he starts talking and ranting, I just sit and I listen.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">"He’s been through a lot of stuff and he’s not just talking to talk, he has something to say from his heart. I just sit and listen because he’s really smart."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That doesn't explain why Bieber would go ahead and slam Swift, but perhaps this does:</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Taylor has long been critical of Justin, stemming from all the ways in which Bieber has led her best friend, Selena Gomez, on.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As recently as December, <a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2015/12/taylor-swift-to-selena-gomez-stay-away-from-justin-bieber/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">Swift told Selena to stay away from Bieber</a>; while she also<a href="http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2016/04/taylor-swift-to-selena-gomez-get-justin-bieber-out-of-your-life/" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">warned Gomez to kick Bieber out of her life </a>this past spring.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A source previously told Us Weekly that Swift "hated him" while Bieber dated Gomez.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In 2013, she refused to answer a question about Bieber at the Billboard Music Awards press room ... and stuck out her tongue when she saw him smooching Gomez backstage.</span></div>
<div id="content_4_btf_waypoint" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back in May, though, the feud between these superstars appeared to be over when Bieber shared via Instagram a video of himself singing "Teardrops On My Guitar."</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Swift went ahead and Liked that post, but so much for the peace offering, we suppose.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-size: 16px; line-height: 22.8571px; margin-bottom: 11px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's back on once again between these two.</span></div>
