Katy Perry says she 'forgives' Taylor Swift over long-running feud and is 'sorry'
Katy Perry is ready to "let it go." During a conversation with Arianna Huffington, live streamed to promote her
new album Witness, on Saturday, the 32-year-old singer opened up about
her feud with Taylor Swift, revealing that she thinks "it's time" for the two to
make amends.
"I'm ready to let it go. Absolutely, 100 percent," Perry expressed. "I forgive her, and I'm sorry for anything I ever did, and I hope the same from her, and I think it's actually... I think it's time."

"There are bigger fish to fry, and there are bigger problems in the world,"
she continued. "I love her and I want the best for her, and I think she's a
fantastic songwriter, and like, I think that if we both, her and I, can be
representatives of strong women that come together despite their differences, I
think the whole world is going to go, like, 'Yeah, we can do this.'"
"Maybe I don't agree with everything she does, and maybe she doesn't agree
with everything I do, but like, I just... I really, truly, want to come
together, and in a place of love and forgiveness, and understanding and
compassion," Perry said.
Though Perry dated Swift's ex-boyfriend, John Mayer, in 2012, their feud
supposedly started when Perry hired backup dancers from Swift's tour years ago.
Swift then hired Perry's longtime songwriter, Max Martin, to help write her 2014
hit, "Bad Blood."
During the "Roar" singer's live stream on Saturday, she shared that she
doesn't "want to be held" to her feud with Swift anymore.
"God bless her on her journey," Perry stated. "I want to operate in a
positive, kind space. I want to be an example of kindness, compassion, love, and
I forgive and forget."
"That wasn't easy for me. I think everybody knows that wasn't easy for me.
But it's fine," the singer confessed. "I want to let it go. I really want the
best for every person."
Perry first opened up about her
and Swift's rivalry during her appearance on James Corden's Carpool
Karaoke.
