Dave Portnoy celebrated Taylor Swift dropping a diss track about Kim Kardashian on the “Anthology” edition of her new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.”
“#KIMKARDASHIAN GOT WRECKED,” the Barstool Sports founder wrote of “thanK you aIMee” on X Friday.
Portnoy, 47, also highlighted lyrics that fans have interpreted to be about Kardashian’s daughter North West: “And one day, your kid comes home singin’ / A song that only us two is gonna know is about you.”
He wrote, “I NEED TO SEE HER KID SINGING LYRIC [sic] about WHAT A DIRTBAG HER MOTHER IS.”

The outspoken media personality, who has long described himself as a Swiftie, concluded his post by praising the pop superstar, 34, for the clever way she capitalized only the letters “KIM” in the song’s title.
“No defining clues besides capitalizing her name. I love Taylor,” he wrote.
While Swift has not confirmed Kardashian, 43, is the target of “thanK you aIMee,” her legion of fans flooded social media with theories immediately after she released the song Friday at 2 a.m. as one of 15 surprise bonus tracks on her 11th studio album.
Another line that piqued listeners’ interest references a “bronze, spray-tanned statue” of a school bully, which many argued could be the reality star.
Swift’s feud with Kardashian dates back to 2016 when the Skims founder posted audio from a phone call between the Grammy winner and Kanye West about the rapper’s song “Famous.”
In the recording, Swift was heard approving of the lyric “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex.”
However, West, 46, evidently did not inform the “Cruel Summer” singer about the misogynistic line that followed — “Why? I made that bitch famous” — as she publicly accused him of “character assassination” upon hearing it. She also claimed their phone call had been “illegally recorded.”
Swift famously hit back at Kardashian and West, who were married at the time, on her 2017 album, “Reputation,” which included the hit single “Look What You Made Me Do.”
While the drama simmered down eventually, the “All Too Well” singer shared in her Time 2023 Person of the Year interview that it had a lasting effect on her.
“That took me down psychologically to a place I’ve never been before,” she said. “I moved to a foreign country. I didn’t leave a rental house for a year. I was afraid to get on phone calls. I pushed away most people in my life because I didn’t trust anyone anymore. I went down really, really hard.”
“The Tortured Poets Department” also details Swift’s past relationships with Joe Alwyn and Matty Healy.
