Kim K and Kanye West could be in trouble for leaking convo tape as Taylor Swift plans legal action against them
The feud between Taylor Swift and Kanye/ Kim Kardashian is set to a take
one step further as the 'Bad blood' singer has met her legal
representatives and is considering taking legal action against Kanye
West and his wife Kim after Kim released a bombshell phone
recording that proved the rapper had asked the Shake It Off singer
permission to release the controversial song Famous.
In the track, Kanye raps: “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex. I made that b**** famous.”
During
the cordial phonecall Taylor, 26, appears to be supportive of the
track, describing Kanye as a “friend” and saying the song is “like a
compliment” and “obviously very tongue in cheek”.
But
according to an exclusive report by the Sun UK, Taylor has consulted
her legal representatives and plans to take legal action against Kanye
and Kim K that could land them with 3 years imprisonment if they are
charged, because in California where Kanye made the call from, it is
illegal to record a phone conversation without the other person's
knowledge and permission and make it public.
Taylor's legal
team is convinced Kanye and Kim have violated California penal code 632
that makes it illegal to record calls without permission from both
sides.
Taylor’s lawyers earlier warned Kanye
that she did not give consent to the recording and insisted she was not
aware the call was being taped, warning him to destroy such recording,
but the rapper's wife Kim released the video recording on Snapchat on Sunday.
A source revealed: “Taylor’s team believe that Kanye and Kim have quite clearly broken the law.
“They
are on a mission to destroy Taylor but there could be serious
consequences because they made the phone call from California where it
is illegal to tape calls without permission.
“They
didn’t ask permission from Taylor and that could be considered a felony
where the offenders can be jailed for up to three years.”
Taylor
responded on Instagram saying: “You don’t get to control someone’s
emotional response to being called ‘that b****’ in front of the entire
world.”
”Where is the video of Kanye telling me he was going to call me ‘that bitch’ in his song? It
doesn’t exist because it never happened."
“Of course I wanted to like
the song. I wanted to believe Kanye when he told me I would love the
song. I wanted us to have a friendly relationship. He promised to play
the song for me, but he never did. While I wanted to be supportive of
Kanye on the phone call, you cannot ‘approve’ a song you haven’t heard.
“Being
falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or
played any part of the song is character assassination.
“I would very much like to be excluded from this narrative, one that I have never asked to be a part of, since 2009.”
