As it turned out, Katy Perry lured the dancers Taylor Swift into her team in the midst of her tour. After the completion of the world tour of California Dreams in 2011, three dancers Cathy-Lockhart Brownlee, Scott Mairick and Leah Adler, were selected and joined the team Taylor, who was preparing for the tour in support of the album Red. Later, in an interview, Brownlee admitted that in the midst of the tour, Cathy's managers again contacted the trio to invite them to work on the show for the Prism album. At the same time, the dancers had to leave the Taylor tour before it was completed. All three immediately agreed. According to Brownlee, his choice was influenced by the fact that working with Katie was more fun.
And in 2014, Taylor Sweet told Rolling stone magazine that her song Bad Blood was about a celebrity whose name she did not mention, but we know that it's all about Perry.
But it seems that the seven-year war has come to an end! In her social networks, 28-year-old singer Taylor Swift shared a video that showed a conciliatory message from 33-year-old Katy Perry with a toy, a letter and an olive branch.
By the way, the video was shot in the dressing room singer a few hours before the start of her world tour "Reputation".
The message from Cathy begins with the words "Hello, old friend", and you can also sort out the first lines in which Perry says she thought a lot about the confusion in their relationship with Swift, wants to "cleanse everything" and asks for forgiveness. "I"m very sorry for what happened," she wrote in her message. "Thank you very much, Cathy," Taylor replied to Instagram Stories.
The feud between Katy Perry and Taylor Swift is finally over! This is a great day in the history of the planet!” one fan wrote on Twitter. Such joyful messages flooded social networks.
True, it turned out that Katy Perry already had time to take offense at Taylor, because she flaunted her apology. A source from the environment shared with The Sun: "Cathy did not expect Taylor to put out the letter itself. It looks like Katie was to blame for their quarrel." We hope that this time the misunderstanding will not last for a long time!

I think it's time for us to make up, forgetting about the past. There are big problems in the world. Do you understand what I mean? I love her and wish her the best. I think she is a very talented songwriter who writes amazing songs. We both belong to the category strong in spirit women who do similar things despite their differences. I think the world will support us. I may not like some of the things she does and she doesn't agree with what I do, but I want to meet her at a point of forgiveness and love, compassion and understanding."
