TAYLOR Swift avoided Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson backstage at Saturday Night Live as the new pair’s romance continues to heat up.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and the massively popular singer haven’t exactly seen eye-to-eye as they’ve been involved in a feud that also included Kim’s ex Kanye West.
The hitmaker, 31, was recently the musical guest in the Jonathan Majors-hosted SNL, however, she also appeared in various sketches.
While all seemed to go off without an issue, that perhaps wasn’t the case.
A source exclusively told The Sun: “Taylor Swift was kept away from Pete Davidson backstage at SNL.”
Taylor and Kim, 41, have had their share of squabbles, even years after the reality star’s ex Kanye famously interrupted the musician’s acceptance speech at the 2009 Video Music Awards.
In 2016, Kanye claimed that Taylor approved lyrics in his track Famous, which included the line, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b**ch famous.”
However, after Taylor’s camp denied she ever gave Kanye the green light, the rapper’s wife at the time, Kim, had her own story.
Kim told GQ: “She totally approved that. She wanted to all of a sudden act like she didn’t.
“I swear, my husband gets so much s**t for things [when] he really was doing proper protocol and even called to get it approved.”
The mom of four even shared a secret recording of Taylor’s phone conversation with Kanye, where she seemingly agreed to the use of her name on the song.
Kim would later shade Taylor by tweeting out various emojis of a snake, and the duo haven’t seemed to makeup since.
Plenty has changed in the following years as Kim has now parted ways from Kanye and is now said to be dating SNL notable Pete, 28.
Kim is said to be head over heels over the famous comic according to Us Weekly, who reveal the star “lights up when she’s around Kim. Their chemistry is off the charts and getting stronger each passing day.”
The insider also added that Kim is particularly attracted to Pete’s sense of humor stating: “No one can remember seeing her smile and laugh so much around a guy.
“He just has this ability to hold Kim’s total attention and have her in stitches with his hilariously dry sense of humor. He’s so down to earth and humble, which she really digs.”
The two shared a steamy kiss on-screen during a sketch where they reportedly developed an instant connection, and were later seen on various public outings together.
Kim is now prepping to “launch a comedy tour” with the help of Pete as well as her mom, Kris Jenner.
