On Monday, 23-year-old pop singer Selena Gomez took to her Twitter account to defend Swift after a video was released that claimed Swift had agreed to the lines in West’s song “Famous” that say “Why?

Katy Perry also took to her Twitter account after the video came out, posting a simple message to “Rise above it all.” However, it is still unclear if she was sharing her thoughts on the feud or promoting her next single titled “Rise.”
