Now we know why Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian are suddenly snapping selfies together.
Kim's husband, Kanye West, just took to his Twitter account to let his 18 million followers know that he and Amber's baby daddy, Wiz Khalifa, have settled their differences.
"Me and Wiz spoke yesterday. Great convo. All positive," West wrote.
As a result Amber and Kim decided to dead their rivalry as well.
The feud began last week when Yeezy announced that he had changed the title of his forthcoming album from "SWISH" to "Waves."
Wiz took offense and tweeted that he felt like that was stepping on the toes of the original Wavy One, incarcerated rapper Max B.
West responded by launching a scathing Twitter attack on the Taylor Gang boss, Amber and their son Sebastian.
That led to an accusation by Amber that her fingers had been placed inside an orifice located on West's lower body when the two dated several years ago. And also Wiz screaming "fuck Kanye" during a couple of overseas tour stops.
But cooler heads have prevailed and the feud's been put to bed. All's well that ends well.

Actor and comedian Bill Cosby, center, arrives for a court appearance Tuesday, Feb. 2, 2016, in Norristown, Pa. Cosby was arrested and charged with drugging and sexually assaulting a woman at his home in January 2004.
Video After The Jump
NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) — The former district attorney who declined a decade ago to bring sex-crime charges against Bill Cosby testified Tuesday that he believes his decision forever bars his successors from prosecuting the comedian.
Former Montgomery County District Attorney Bruce Castor took the stand as part of a bid by Cosby's lawyers to get the case against the TV star thrown out because of what they say is a non-prosecution agreement from Castor.
The current district attorney has said there is no record of any such agreement.
Cosby, 78, was arrested and charged in December with drugging and violating former Temple University athletic department employee Andrea Constand at his suburban Philadelphia mansion in 2004. He could get up to 10 years in prison if convicted.
Andrea Constand
Castor said Tuesday that he believed Constand was violated but that proving it would have been problematic because of serious flaws in the case, and so he declined to bring charges in 2005.
He said that he made the decision as a representative of the state — as "the sovereign," as he put it, over and over — and that it would last in perpetuity.
"For all time, yes," Castor said when pressed.
And he suggested that Cosby and his lawyer at the time had the same understanding, because Cosby later agreed to testify without invoking his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination in a lawsuit brought against him by Constand.
"Cosby would've had to have been nuts to say those things if there was any chance he could've been prosecuted," Castor said, referring to the damaging testimony unsealed last summer.
Castor said he hoped, correctly, at the time that the decision not to prosecute would free the comedian to testify in the lawsuit and help Constand win damages. She eventually settled for an undisclosed amount.
The former DA said he "wanted there to be some measure of justice" for Constand, explaining, "I thought making Mr. Cosby pay money was the best I was going to be able to set the stage for."
He added: "I was hopeful that I had made Ms. Constand a millionaire."
He said he relayed word to Cosby's then-attorney, Walter Phillips, that Cosby would not be charged. However, Castor said the two lawyers did not have "an agreement" that Cosby would testify in exchange for not being prosecuted.
Phillips is now dead.
Kevin Steele, the newly elected DA who is pursuing the case, has said Cosby would need an immunity agreement in writing to get the case thrown out. He has said he has no evidence one exists.
While Castor was called as witness by Cosby's side, the former DA said he is rooting for the prosecution.
"I'm not on your team here," Castor told Cosby lawyer Brian McMonagle. "I want them to win."
In a barrage of allegations that have destroyed Cosby's image as America's Dad, dozens of women have accused the former TV star of drugging and sexually assaulting them since the 1960s. But this is the only case in which he has been charged.
The unsealing of the testimony from Constand's lawsuit prompted Castor's successors to reopen the case and ultimately charge Cosby.
Cosby admitted in the deposition that he had affairs with young models and actresses, that he obtained quaaludes to give to women he wanted to have sex with and that he gave Constand three pills at his home. He said he reached into her pants but insisted it was consensual.

Castor defended his decision not to bring charges, testifying that he saw Constand's year-long delay in reporting the allegations, inconsistencies in her statements and her contact with a lawyer before going to police as problematic.
Castor said Constand's delay was of "enormous significance" in his consideration of the case. He said it thwarted his ability to test her hair or fingernails for evidence she was drugged.
Still, Castor said, he investigated the case thoroughly because he wanted to show authorities in Constand's native Canada that celebrities don't get preferential treatment in America.
Anne Poulin, a law professor at Villanova University, said the defense has a high bar to meet to get the case thrown out early on. But "if they can win without this ever going to trial, then they've done their client a big service."
It was not immediately clear when Common Pleas Judge Steven T. O'Neill would rule.

At one point Bone Thugs-N-Harmony were toying with the idea of selling a single copy of their final album for $1million, similar to what Wu Tang Clan did in successfully finding a buyer in Martin Shkreli for their $2 million "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin" project.
In a new interview with VladTV, Krayzie Bone, gives an update on the status of that project.
"We king of backed up off of that because our fans is real sensitive. Our fans flipped the hell out," Krayzie said. "They was like, 'what you mean, you gon' charge us $1 million for your album?' I'm like, 'y'all don't even understand what we're saying right now.' We kind of just backed up off of it. It's still options on the table. We looking at other options as well. That ain't the only one we got. [We're] still thinking about how to make it work in a much more effective way."

Donald Trump picked up a surprise endorsement Monday, February 1, from controversial Harlem, New York rapper Azealia Banks.
Banks hit up her Twitter account to inform her 548,000 followers of her decision to vote from Trump in the upcoming presidential election, and to explain why.
"Ok so, I think I'm ready to admit that I'm going to vote for Donald Trump. I think Trump is the only one who truly has the balls to bust up big business. Hilary is too tied in with them and Bernie has no clout," she wrote. "The other candidates are simply ... Them hoes over there #thots. Just because Hilary Clinton and Bernie sanders say nice things about minorities doesn't mean they actually mean them. Politicians have been saying "nice" things about colored folks and we've still been getting fucked. I only trust this country to be what it is: full of shit. takes shit to know shit so we may as well, put a piece of shit in the White House."
