Katy Perry reacts to fan theory that she and Taylor Swift are cousins

Halle and Sarah, Bernie and Larry, Katy and Taylor?

Pregnant pop star Katy Perry recently sat down to discuss a fan theory that she and fellow songstress Taylor Swift are actually distant cousins.

While chatting on Capital FM, Perry, 35, was told that many followers believe she and former enemy Swift, 30, are ninth cousins, to which she light-heartedly replied, “Well, we fight like cousins!”

She went on to call the theory “fan fic,” but was amazed to find out someone actually documented both of their family histories so extensively.

“Wow, I’m going to have to ask her if this is true, if we should, like, get blood tests together,” Perry said, adding that she and the “Lover” singer “spitting into a tube” would make for great entertainment.

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

The two reconciled for Swift’s 2019 video, “You Need to Calm Down.”

“It kind of was a process. I sent her a literal olive branch and a note apologizing for my part in all of it when she started her ‘Reputation’ tour. I just thought she was about to embark on something new and big and needed the support,” Perry explained of their reconciliation. “As I was finishing mine, I realized how much we have in common, and maybe there’s only five other people in the world that can have the same type of conversations and understand where we’re coming from and that we should celebrate our commonality and our friendship and be able to be there for each other.”
