Katy Perry and Taylor Swift did what would have been unthinkable three years ago: Declare their friendship on Instagram with a tray of 'Peace at Last' chocolate chip cookies that Swift sent. Perry got to make their friendship Instagram official on her 'gram, sharing the shot. 'feels good 🧡 @taylorswift,' she captioned it, tagging her location as 'Let's Be Friends.'
Swift commented 13 pink hearts under Perry's 'gram, because of course she did: 13 is Swift's number. Some fans believe this could be a sign that Perry and Swift are collaborating, and this is another one of Swift's famed easter egg. Perry said she was 'open' to working with Swift earlier this year, so sure, it's a possibility...and maybe even a probability in the future.
Perry and Swift made the end of their feud Instagram official a year ago with a literal olive branch. Swift posted an Instagram story of wreath that Perry sent her ahead of her first Reputation world tour show in May 2018. 'Thank you, Katy,' Swift wrote with a double heart emoji.
They gave a subtle sign they were publicly supportive of each other roughly two weeks ago, when Perry liked a photo Swift tweeted, and Swift added Perry's song 'Never Really Over' to her Apple Music playlist. Swift put Perry's single in the 13th spot of her playlist, which some fans believed could be another hint from Swift that the two have something bigger coming.
At this point, Swift has not shared her own Instagram of their cookie peace offering yet nor have they shared any photo of them posing together. But hey, baby steps.
