Billboard apologized for posting an inappropriate video featuring Taylor Swift, reigniting controversy over her long-standing feud with Kanye West.
Billboard apologized after posting an inappropriate video featuring a nude wax figure of Taylor Swift in Kanye West's Famous music video, which sparked backlash. The video depicted a naked likeness of Swift, with West making sexual innuendos about her in the lyrics. Billboard removed the clip and issued a statement on X, expressing deep regret to Swift and readers.
Swift and West's feud dates back to the 2009 MTV VMAs, where West interrupted her speech.

Swift later called this and losing her masters to Scooter Braun the "lowest points" in her career.
