Taylor Swift v. Nicki Minaj
Communication. The 1989 songstress got into a heated argument with the rap artist in July 2015, after MTV announced its nominees for Video of the Year. Nicki Minaj — whose "Anaconda" was memorably excluded from the pack of nominees (Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran, Beyoncé and Mark Ronson) — tweeted that the show "celebrates women with very slim bodies.” The always-slim Swift was not pleased, assuming that Minaj was referencing her and tweeted: "@NICKIMINAJ I've done nothing but love & support you. It's unlike you to pit women against each other. Maybe one of the men took your slot…" The spat got so intense that Sheeran, and even Kim Kardashian, chimed in.
Weeks later, Swift and Minaj buried the hatchet and performed together at the 2015 MTV VMAs. "I send text messages now," Swift said in a subsequent interview with NME. "If there seems to be some kind of misunderstanding, I go to someone's management, I get their number and I text them."
Miley Cyrus v. Nicki Minaj
What's (not) good? After Miley Cyrus called out Nicki Minaj for her "not so nice" comments about Taylor Swift in a New York Times interview, the "Anaconda" rapper unexpectedly called out the 2015 MTV VMAs host at the August show — on live television. “And now back to this bitch that had a lot to say about me in the press: Miley, what’s good?" Minaj said on stage, as she accepted her award. The Pink Friday rapper also mouthed, "Don’t play with me, bitch!” Cyrus (as well her family members, the audience and well, everyone) appeared shocked from the side. No reconciliation has been reported.
Julianna Margulies vs. Archie Panjabi
Not-so-good wife. Julianna Margulies and Archie Panjabi's contentious relationship was part of the showbiz rumor mill for years, but it was finally exposed in 2015. Panjabi announced she was leaving the CBS series The Good Wife, and for her final episode, her character, Kalinda, was supposed to share a scene with Margulies’ Alicia — but it was revealed that the women filmed separately, and a green screen was used in post-production. "[Panjabi] was also doing another show, called The Fall. I went along with whatever Robert asked me to do, and I did it happily," Margulies claimed in an October 2015 interview. Panjabi, however, claimed the opposite via Twitter. “@TheFallTV was not even in production at that time," the actress wrote, "and I was in New York ready to film the scene!”
Iggy Azalea vs. Azealia Banks
They may share part of a name, but these two female rappers couldn't be more different. This ongoing feud was refueled in December 2014 whenAzealia Banks called out Iggy Azalea for not speaking out about Eric Garner and Ferguson on social media, and bashed her talent. The "Fancy" MC responded by calling Banks a "bigot" and "miserable angry human being."
Khloe Kardashian vs. Amber Rose
Lay off my sister! After Amber Rose insulted Kylie Jenner on a radio show in February 2015, Khloé Kardashian took to Twitter to bash the former stripper. Naturally, Rose fought back, "@khloekardashian I'm happy u brought up the fact that I was a stripper at 15....@khloekardashian I'll be that lil whore to support my family like ur older sister is a whore 2 support hers," dissing her exKanye West's wife Kim Kardashian.
Elton John vs. Dolce & Gabbana
Nobody puts babies in a corner! Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana bashed IVF and gay adoption, saying, "You are born to a mother and a father — or at least that's how it should be. I call children of chemistry, synthetic children" in March 2015. Elton John then lashed back on Instagram, calling for a boycott of the brand. Several stars, including former Dolce & Gabbana spokesmodel Madonna, followed suit.
Giuliana Rancic vs. Zendaya
Not cool! During the Oscars 2015 episode of Fashion Police, co-hostGiuliana Rancic noted that Zendaya's dreadlocks looked like they smelled of "patchouli oil and weed." The former Disney star replied with a long message on Instagram, calling the comments "outrageously offensive." Rancic made an on-air apology, but that didn't stop Kelly Osbourne from quitting the show and Kathy Griffin from exiting a few weeks later.
Justin Bieber vs. Orlando Bloom
In July 2014, troubled popstar Justin Bieber had to duck a punch fromOrlando Bloom in Ibiza after throwing in a jab about Bloom’s ex-wife,Miranda Kerr. Back in 2012, rumors circulated claiming the “Boyfriend” singer and the supermodel flirted at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show while she was still married. No one got hit, and Bieber later continued to mock The Hobbit star by posting a picture of him crying on Instagram.
Taylor Swift vs. Katy Perry
Talk about "Bad Blood"! When Taylor Swift released her smash hit album1989, she told Rolling Stone that her song "Bad Blood" was about another female artist that is "just straight-up enemies" with her. Fans quickly deduced that the tune was about Katy Perry when she tweeted, "Watch out for the Regina George in sheep's clothing." The feud was apparently over Perry stealing backup dancers from Swift while she was on tour. Perry later said, "If somebody is trying to defame my character, you're going to hear about it."
Khloe and Kim Kardashian vs. Adrienne Bailon
After former Cheetah Girls star Adrienne Bailon complained in Latinamagazine that dating Rob Kardashian hurt her career, the reality star’s loyal sisters Kim and Khloé Kardashian quickly came to his rescue. "Adrienne has a lot of nerve to talk s--t about Rob when he is obviously dealing with s--t,” Khloé tweeted in July 2014. And Kim later followed up, writing, “Funny how she says being with a Kardashian hurt her career yet the only reason she has this article is bc she is talking about a Kardashian. So sad when people try to kick my brother when he is down #FamilyForever."
Freddie Prinze Jr. vs. Kiefer Sutherland
Jack Bauer’s coming for Freddie! After a 2010 stint on 24, Freddie Prinze Jr.bashed costar Kiefer Sutherland in July 2014 to ABC News, calling him “the most unprofessional dude in the world.” Sutherland replied to the actor’s complaints through his rep in a statement, writing, "Kiefer worked with Freddie Prinze Jr. more than five years ago, and this is the first he has heard of Freddie's grievances. Kiefer enjoyed working with Freddie and wishes him the best."
Lauren Conrad vs. Allure Magazine
Who are you calling basic? Four months after posing as an Allure cover girl,Lauren Conrad was peeved when the magazine called her out in July 2014 as being “basic,” which the publication defined as “remarkably unremarkable.” LC then tweeted a picture of the piece, writing, “I definitely just got called a basic b*tch! Haha! Sausage curls!? Really @Allure_magazine?”
Solange vs. Jay Z
No love in THAT elevator! A shocking security video leaked in May 2014 showed Beyoncé's sister, Solange, violently attacking her brother-in-law, Jay Z, after NYC's Met Gala. Though the surveillance video lacked audio, an insider tells Us Weekly that Solange "flipped out over something Jay said. She overreacted." Said a second source more bluntly: "Solange was hammered. She apologized the next day."
Joan Rivers vs. Gwyneth Paltrow
"The worst criticism was, ugh, Gwyneth Paltrow," Joan Rivers said in April 2014 when Andy Cohen asked which star had given the comic a hard time about her Fashion Police jokes. "She came and yelled at us, but she stood up. She can't sit down 'cause she's got a stick up her rear end." The feeling is mutual. When asked by Harper's Bazaar about her beauty routine in 2013, Paltrow swore off Botox. "I won't do Botox again, because I looked crazy. I looked like Joan Rivers!"
Paul McCartney vs. Yoko Ono
Calling his former Beatles bandmate John Lennon's wife a certified "badass,"Paul McCartney ended his tense rivalry with Ono for good in a November 2013 Rolling Stone cover story. "I thought, 'If John loved her, there's got to be something. He's not stupid,'" McCartney told the mag, adding that George Harrison encouraged him to move on. "It's like, what are you going to do? Are you going to hold a grudge you never really had?"
Lea Michele vs. Naya Rivera
"They talk behind each other's backs — a lot," an insider told Us of the Gleecostars in April 2014, shortly before multiple sources confirmed that Naya Rivera was fired from the FOX series. Though Lea Michele reportedly had little to do with Rivera's exit, separate sources tell Us the girls aren't friendly. "They're always icy to each other. Naya is jealous that Lea is the show's main star … There is a lot of sighing and eye-rolling between them."
Megan Fox vs. Michael Bay
In a 2009 magazine interview, Megan Fox likened Transformers directorMichael Bay to Napoleon, saying, "He wants to create this insane, infamous mad-men reputation. … He's a nightmare to work for." Though Fox praised Bay in that same interview, Steven Spielberg reportedly urged Bay to fire the actress from Transformers — a recommendation Bay followed, leading to their strained relationship. Since burying the hatchet, the pair worked together onTeenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, released in 2014.
Kathy Griffin vs. Demi Lovato fans
Demi Lovato was forced to tell her fans to "chill out" after they issued cyber death threats to comedian Kathy Griffin in March 2014. "I couldn't sleep, so I went on Twitter and said, 'I'm going to tweet things using Siri, but I'm not going to correct any of the spelling,'" Griffin recalled. "When a fan asked, 'Who's the douchiest person you've met?' Siri responded, 'Debbie Lovato is a little douche.'" Though Griffin has no beef with Lovato herself, police reached out to her due to the nature of fans' extreme threats.
Selena Gomez vs. Kendall and Kylie Jenner
Though they have since ended their feud, young Hollywood's hottest were at odds in spring 2014, when Selena Gomez unfollowed Keeping Up With the Kardashians stars Kylie and Kendall Jenner on Instagram, because she thought Kylie got a bit too close to her on-and-off boyfriend Justin Bieber at the Coachella Music and Arts Festival. "Selena felt Kylie was flirting with Justin," a Bieber insider told Us at the time. "It got messy."
Kelly Rowland vs. Beyonce
During a Washington, D.C. concert in May 2013, Kelly Rowland opened up about her song "Dirty Laundry," which details her one-time rivalry with former Destiny's Child member Beyoncé. "Doing this song for me was so therapeutic," she said before she sang the song, which includes the lines, "When my sister was on stage / Killing it like a motherf--ker / I was in rage." "Honesty, like my mama always says, is always the best policy," Rowland said.
Taylor Swift vs. Jessica Hart
Jessica Hart doesn't think Taylor Swift can cut it on the catwalk. "We've been working for 14, 15 years. What it takes to make it here comes from experience and confidence," the Aussie model told Women's Wear Daily in 2013, following the "Mean" singer's performance at the November 13 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. After the company's chief marketing officer publicly praised Swift, Hart changed her tune. As she told Us November 16, "I could never … do what she does. She is a true rockstar!"
Pebbles vs. TLC
Ain't too proud to throw mud! In an interview, TLC creator Perri "Pebbles" Reid slammed the 2013 VH1 biopic about Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas andTionne "T-Boz" Watkins for portraying her as greedy. She also ranted that Thomas had an affair with her ex, producer L.A. Reid. TLC's rep denies the tryst.
Brandi Glanville vs. Joanna Krupa
During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live in November 2013, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Brandi Glanville accused Real Housewives of Miami star Joanna Krupa of having an affair with costar Yolanda Foster's ex-husband, Mohamed Hadid. She also made the vulgar remark, "Well, Mohamed did tell me that her p--sy smelled." Krupa fired back on Twitter, writing, "No wonder her husband left her," and later stepped out wearing a "Team Rimes" shirt.
George Clooney vs. Russell Crowe
In the December 2013 issue of Esquire, George Clooney claimed that Russell Crowe had to apologize to him for "insulting the s--t out of me." "He picked a fight with me. He started it for no reason at all," the Monuments Men actor recalled. "He put out this thing saying, George Clooney, Harrison Ford, and Robert De Niro are sellouts." After Clooney made a joke that he was starting a band with Ford and De Niro, Crowe allegedly responded, "Who the f--k does this guy think he is? He's a Frank Sinatra wannabe." But Crowe eventually sent Clooney a peace offering. "So he sends me a disc of his music and a thing of his poetry," Clooney recalled. "I think he said, 'I was all misquoted,' and I was like, 'Yeah, yeah. Whatever.'"
Lady Gaga vs. Perez Hilton
The "Applause" singer's friendship with the celebrity blogger came to an end in 2011. Lady Gaga told Howard Stern in November 2013 that she felt "betrayed" by Perez Hilton during an interview, and she doesn't want to "be around fake people." On The Wendy Williams Show that same month, Hilton fired back, claiming, "She globs onto people, uses them, and once they're no longer of use to her, will just throw them aside."
Kanye West vs. Jimmy Kimmel
Kanye West unleashed an all-caps Twitter tirade against Jimmy Kimmel after the late-night host aired a spoof of the rapper's BBC Radio 1 interview in September 2013. "JIMMY KIMMEL IS OUT OF LINE TO TRY AND SPOOF IN ANY WAY THE FIRST PIECE OF HONEST MEDIA IN YEARS," he wrote. The next month, West agreed to appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to hash out his differences with Kimmel. "We kind of just took it back to high school for a little bit," West admitted.
Sinead O'Connor vs. Miley Cyrus
Irish singer Sinead O'Connor wrote an open letter to Miley Cyrus in October 2013, telling the "We Can't Stop" singer to stop prostituting herself. Cyrus responded to the letter by posting a photo of O'Connor ripping a photo of the Pope on Saturday Night Live in 1992 with the caption, "Before Amanda Bynes…There was…" O'Connor fired back with a letter on Facebook, threatening to sue Cyrus for "abusing" Bynes.
Dina Manzo vs. Caroline Manzo
Even after Dina Manzo departed Real Housewives of New Jersey in 2010, her feud with sister Caroline continued off screen. "We're all on a life journey and sometimes people's energy doesn't vibe," Dina explained on Watch What Happens Live in 2012. "We're just letting it sit. … It doesn't mean you hate the person or you wish bad for them." Dina denied reports, however, that the feud was caused by costar Teresa Giudice. "I know this pisses people off, but Teresa had absolutely nothing to do with it," she said. After Caroline announced her departure from RHONJ in 2013, Dina revealed she would be returning to the Bravo reality show.
Christina Aguilera vs. Kelly Osbourne
Don't you dare cross an angry Osbourne! Kelly Osbourne let her feelings be known about pop songstress Christina Aguilera during an August 2011 segment of E!'s Fashion Police. "She called me fat for years," she sniffed. "I was never that fat." A few months later, Andy Cohen asked the red carpet host to say three kind things about Aguilera. "I think she's looking way better right now, she's got a great voice and she's got a beautiful son," Osbourne finally responded after some thought.
LeAnn Rimes vs. Brandi Glanville
What a doozy! The feud between LeAnn Rimes and Brandi Glanville has been going strong — and filled with plenty of expletives — ever since Rimes first had an affair with Glanville's then-husband Eddie Cibrian on the set of Lifetime's Northern Lights back in 2009. The duo have taken their battle everywhere from Twitter to talk shows to … book readings? At the launch of her book Drinking and Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders, Glanville said the country singer "can go f--k herself."
Lady Gaga vs. Kelly Osbourne
The intense verbal sparring began in January 2013, when Sharon Osbournereleased an open letter to Lady Gaga, telling the singer and her fans to stop harassing Kelly Osbourne (a result of Kelly calling Gaga's fans "the worst" in a previous magazine interview). Gaga then took to Facebook to slam Kelly'sFashion Police show, saying it made her "truly sad" that Kelly was being a bully herself on the red carpet. Sharon's response? To call the pop singer a "publicity-seeking hypocrite."
Rihanna vs. Karrueche Tran
Rihanna may have reunited with her on-and-off flame Chris Brown, but when the two split in February 2009 following a very ugly pre-Grammy night, Brown found comfort in the arms of another gal — model Karrueche Tran. And even though she had suffered multiple injuries at the hands of Brown, Rihanna took her anger out on Tran, often engaging in public Twitter spats with her ex's new lady.
NeNe Leakes vs. Star Jones
NeNe Leakes and Star Jones had a difference of opinion during their 2011 run on Celebrity Apprentice, to say the least. The pair famously quarreled on the set of Donald Trump's reality show, and the feud spilled over off screen. "Star is a trip — like, she is very special. No, seriously — I wouldn't spit on Star if she was on fire," the fiery Real Housewives of Atlanta star told talk show hostWendy Williams.
Melissa Gorga vs. Teresa Giudice
Real Housewives of New Jersey's Melissa Gorga and sister-in-law Teresa Giudice have one of reality TV's ugliest ongoing feuds, thanks in large part to Giudice's alleged attempt to label Gorga a former stripper on national TV back in 2012. When Gorga caught wind of Giudice's schemes, she was furious. "It's so hard for me to put myself in Teresa's shoes, because I'd never try to hurt anybody," she told Us Weekly. "Maybe it will make her happy when everyone is as miserable as Teresa is."
Nicki Minaj vs. Mariah Carey
And the claws come out! Put two of music's biggest names at a judges' table together, add ego and eye rolls, and stir generously. Rumors of bad blood between Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey began to surface as soon as the two were named judges on American Idol in early 2012. During the audition rounds of the show, it was evident that there would be issues, especially when one particular spat escalated into Minaj claiming, "I told them, I'm not f--king putting up with her f--king highness."
Donald Trump vs. Rosie O’Donnell
Are there two people in the world with more pointedly spiteful words for one another than Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell? The pair have kept a years-long feud going on Twitter, often tweeting insults at one another and attacking their respective brands. But after O'Donnell suffered a heart attack in summer 2012, Trump was quick to extend a (temporary) olive branch. "@Rosie, get better fast. I'm starting to miss you!" he tweeted, to which she asked jokingly if he was "trying to kill" her.
Chris Brown vs. Drake
Nothing gets the fire going more than a feud over a lady friend. Back in June 2012, Chris Brown and Drake were involved in a nasty bar brawl that left five people with minor injuries and Brown himself with a large cut on his chin. The ruckus reportedly began when Brown sent a bottle of liquor over to Drake's table at a Manhattan nightclub, and Drake sent the bottle back with a note: "I'm still f--king Rihanna."
Madonna vs. Lady Gaga
Imitation wasn't exactly the greatest form of flattery for iconic pop singerMadonna, who sparked a feud with pop star Lady Gaga during her MDNAtour, claiming that Gaga took a cue from her famous 1989 song "Express Yourself" in her 2011 hit "Born This Way." Gaga's response? "It sometimes makes people feel better about themselves to put other people down or make fun of them or maybe make a mockery of their work," the singer said.
Dina Lohan vs. Michael Lohan
There's no way a Parent Trap-esque scheme could bring these former spouses together. Dina Lohan and Michael Lohan — parents to troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan — have been at each other's throats since little Lindsay was still a freckled Disney star. Dina has claimed that Michael was abusive and even raped her during a coke-fueled binge, and Michael has said that Dina lives in a "lonely and dark world of lies and deception."
Taylor Swift vs. Kanye West
When Taylor Swift took to the stage at the 2009 MTV Music Awards to accept her award for Best Female Video, Kanye West had a thing or two to say — and let America know it. "Yo Taylor, I'm really happy for you and I'mma let you finish, but Beyoncé had one of the best videos of all time," he said, as he stepped on stage next to a startled Swift to interrupt her acceptance speech. "Taylor Swift beat Beyoncé at the Grammys? Beyoncé be dancing in heels and s--t," he later said.
