Katy Perry<\/b><\/a> proved that she only has mad love for <\/span>Taylor Swift<\/b><\/a> while dancing to \u201cBad Blood\u201d at her first Eras tour stop in Sydney, Australia, nine years after fans speculated the song was about her amid their feud.<\/p>\n The \u201cFirework\u201d singer, 39, watched the show from the VIP tent alongside Rita Ora<\/strong> and Taika Waititi<\/strong> on Friday, February 23. Katy was even seen bobbing her head along to the 1989 <\/span><\/i>single<\/span><\/a> and singing along as <\/span>Taylor, 34, performed on stage<\/span><\/a>, which was shared by a fan via <\/span>video on X<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n Not only did Katy enjoy the concert from the crowd, but she also got to visit Taylor backstage. \u201cGot to see an old friend shine tonight,\u201d she captioned a selfie of the duo before the show via Instagram<\/a>, as well as several videos and photos from the evening.<\/p>\n The \u201cTeenage Dream\u201d singer cheered on Taylor nearly a decade after the \u201cCruel Summer\u201d singer seemingly implied that she wrote \u201cBad Blood\u201d about Katy during a September 2014 interview with Rolling Stone<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cFor years, I was never sure if we were friends or not,\u201d she said about the person who inspired the song, though didn\u2019t directly name anyone. \u201cShe would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, \u2018Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?’\u201d<\/p>\n Taylor then claimed the other singer \u201cdid something so horrible\u201d that they became \u201cstraight-up enemies.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd it wasn\u2019t even about a guy! It had to do with business<\/a>. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour,\u201d the \u201cThis Is Why We Can\u2019t Have Nice Things\u201d singer continued. \u201cShe tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I\u2019m surprisingly non-confrontational\u2014you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So, now I have to avoid her. It\u2019s awkward, and I don\u2019t like it.\u201d<\/p>\n Just one day after the article was released, Katy implied she was the singer in question. \u201cWatch out for the Regina George in sheep\u2019s clothing\u2026\u201d she cryptically tweeted at the time.<\/p>\n The pair went on to have a years-long feud<\/span><\/a> before Taylor revealed Katy sent her a literal olive brand in 2018 to make amends. They continued to work on their friendship, and <\/span>the <\/span>American Idol<\/span><\/i> judge<\/span><\/a> even made an appearance in Taylor\u2019s June 2019 \u201cYou Need to Calm Down\u201d music video.<\/p>\n Katy continued to open up about the feud when she appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show<\/em> in September 2019, explaining that the entire situation was caused by a \u201cmisunderstanding.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt was really unfortunate,\u201d Katy admitted. \u201cBut we made amends and I\u2019m all about redemption and forgiveness<\/a> and for setting an example for those younger people that it can be cool to ask for forgiveness and confront someone that you may have an issue with or a problem with and talk it out.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
