Taylor Swift just threw a subtle punch on the Kardashian when she praised Jameela Jamil in her recent interview. The body positivity advocate actress previously clashed with the Kardashians after she slammed them for promoting "diet teas" on their social media accounts.
The bad blood between Swift and Kanye West and his wife, Kim Kardashian, has been an open book. The public has known how the feud started and how deep it is. In fact, Swift opened up about it in her recent interview the Rolling Stone.
In her new interview with Zane Lowe on Beat 1, however, Swift did not mention West and the Kardashians but still many noticed how she threw a subtle shade on them by simply mentioning a critic of the family, Jameela Jamil.
Swift opened up about how she feels when women are being judged because of their bodies. The 29-year-old singer talked about her own experiences in feeling judged, especially when she starts to make a name in the music industry. Swift said, at the time, her talent was overshadowed by the public's interest in her dating life more than her skills as a musician.
The "ME!" singer confessed that she felt "slut-shamed" whenever people judged her of the men she dated. Swift expressed her gratitude to outspoken female influencers such as Jamil for pushing for "body neutrality." The singer added that she feels more positive about the industry now because of powerful female influencers like Jamil.
"We have amazing women out there like Jameela Jamil saying, 'I'm not trying to spread body positivity. I'm trying to spread body neutrality where I can sit here and not think about what my body is looking like,'" Taylor said.
The Good Place actress is widely regarded as a body neutrality activist and is very well known for her activism, especially against popular diet products. Earlier this year, she publicly slammed Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, and Kris Jenner for promoting "diet teas" in paid advertisements on social media.
In her lengthy tweet, Jamil particularly slammed Khloé and called out the reality star for not being transparent about how she achieved her toned body. She also revealed the side effects of the diet products that Khloe is promoting.
Jamil also aimed at Kim over her body makeup. Jameela retweeted a video of the product that Kim uses. She stated she was giving it a "hard pass" and told fans that they should too.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians stars responded to Jamil's attack in a New York Times article and explain why they promote "diet teas" on their Instagram accounts. The body positivity advocate actress, however, was not impressed. She upped her attack on the three and advised them to "check their moral compasses" because she said there is something broken in them.
