"Well, we fight like cousins," joked Katy Perry, as she admitted she didn't know anything about it, but did consider getting a DNA test with the 'Bad Blood' pop star.
Recently, Katy has been very open to even collaborating with Taylor Swift. During an interview with Extra, Katy Perry was asked whether or not the rumours that she was working with her were true.

Her feud with Taylor Swift reportedly began in 2014 following beef over dancers, after Taylor hired several dancers for her 'Red Tour', who all had danced for Katy Perry. A few months later, it was said that those dancers then returned to Katy to join her on her 'Prism Tour', thus leaving Taylor's tour.
