“It’s hard for young girls, growing up [with] cliques and high school and pettiness and all that stuff,” Perry continued, “so now we’re super friendly and I’ve always wanted the best for her and we can talk about the best we want for each other.”

Swift, 30, and Perry’s feud reportedly began after Perry “basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour,” Swift claimed to Rolling Stone in 2014. It wasn’t publicly known that Swift and Perry even had a feud until the magazine cover story, which then let everyone believe Swift’s tune “Bad Blood” was about Perry.

Perry then cryptically responded on Twitter to Swift’s comments, writing, “Watch out for the Regina George in sheep’s clothing…”
