Katy Perry stole the spotlight at the 2024 VMAs with a performance that had the whole arena buzzing. But the real jaw-dropper was the intense support that came from the audience, specifically, Taylor Swift dancing to every song. Considering their past and the decade long feud between them, this moment was a public reconciliation more than it was a fun moment.
The history of their falling out goes back to their fight over backup dancers. The feud even inspired Taylor’s hit “Bad Blood.” Things slowly mended in 2018 when Katy sent Taylor a real olive branch as a peace offering. By 2019, Katy appeared in Taylor’s music video, showing the world they were moving on. Taylor dancing at the VMAs felt like the final chapter and the two superstars proved that friendship can win over drama.
