The Swifties have donned their detective hats — and come up with a clue!
Some Taylor Swift fans are convinced that they identified the statue mentioned in the beginning of the pop star’s Kim Kardashian diss track.
The Grammy winner, 34, begins “thanK you aIMee” by singing about a “bronze, spray-tanned statue” of a high school bully she pictures in her hometown.

“[There is] a plaque underneath it / That threatens to push me down the stairs, at our school,” Swift sings in the “Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology” track.
One of her listeners speculated via X last week that Swift is referring to the statue of Athena Parthenos in the Nashville Parthenon.
The gold statue of the Greek goddess features a massive snake.
Notably, Kardashian trolled Swift with a snake reference when their years-long feud began back in 2016.
“Wait it’s legit National Snake Day?!?!? They have holidays for everybody, I mean everything these days!” she tweeted after releasing a phone call seemingly showing Swift giving Kanye West permission to sing about her in “Famous.”
The reality star’s fans subsequently bombarded Swift with snake emojis.
Swift later reclaimed the imagery while performing her “Reputation” revenge album, telling Elle in 2019 that “it’s the Stadium Tour equivalent of responding to a troll’s hateful Instagram comment with ‘lol.'”

She explained, “I can’t tell you how hard I had to keep from laughing every time my 63-foot inflatable cobra named Karyn appeared onstage in front of 60,000 screaming fans.”
At the time, Swifties posted pictures of the Nashville statue via X and wondered whether it acted as the inspiration for the massive snake she used onstage.
As for its possible connection to “thanK you aIMee,” many shouted out the “smart” social media user who brought the work of art to their attention.
Others, however, pointed out that Swift’s hometown is in Pennsylvania — although she did move to Nashville in her teens and currently has a home there.
Kardashian has yet to directly respond to Swift’s shady song, although she reportedly wants to “move on.”
“[She] doesn’t get why [Swift] keeps harping on it,” a source told People Tuesday. “It’s been literally years.”
The “Kardashians” star appeared unbothered giving her first interview since the release on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” Monday, assuring listeners that “life is good.”
She appeared to shade Swift the following day by posing for a picture with the singer’s former friend Karlie Kloss.
