Pop icon Taylor Swift had once shaded Kanye West in a private note sent to her longtime friend Ed Sheeran via Page Six.
Attached to a jar of homemade jam that Swift gifted the “Photograph” singer, she penned, “Yo Ed — I’m really happy 4 you and I’m gonna let you finish but this is the best jam of all-time. — T”
Swift’s cheeky note referenced West’s infamous onstage tirade at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when he interrupted the singer’s acceptance speech.
The viral moment occurred amid a years-long feud between the disgraced rapper and the “Anti-Hero” songstress. Both singers went on to diss each other in their music. Swift’s 2010 “Innocent” was widely believed to be about West, while West’s 2016 “Famous” contained a direct reference to the wildly popular hitmaker.
Swift gave the jar of jam to Sheeran back in 2013, and he posted a photo of it. However, he shared the photo again on April 2nd, after creating a new Instagram account to share snapshots from a phone he discarded in 2015.
“It was pretty good jam,” Sheeran captioned the repost. In his original 2013 caption, Sheeran noted that Swift made him the jam and called it “amazing.”
In the comments section, Sheeran’s followers couldn’t get over Swift’s jam — nor could they contain their glee at the epic shade.
“SHE THREW THE BEST SHADE,” gushed a fan, while another remarked, “Icons only here.”
“Taylor is sooo funny for this!!” commented a third.
Others found the musical duo’s friendship inspiring. “You guys have such a great friendship!” wrote a fourth fan. “Love seeing some of the beginnings of it!”
Sheeran and Swift are known for their longtime friendship, and for collaborating on several songs together, including “End Game,” “Run,” “Everything Has Changed” and “The Joker and the Queen.”
