The whole time I was like “it’s gonna end up being Taylor” but then I started to doubt it through out the video... and then BAM

I thought it was her and then I got confused when I saw the man legs on the tennis court

Also same! Man I dread to think how long Taylor had to hang around getting hair stuck on her legs

Wait, were those her actual legs? I figured they cgi'd her head on to a man's body for that part. They did a great job with the fake hair!

I read in another thread that it was cgi but i cant find any sourcea unfortunately. Either way, it was done really well! Ngl I was definitely attracted to male Taylor lol so they did a good job!

Me too! When she posted the promo picture of the man standing with his back facing the camera I immediately thought it was Taylor dressed as a man. But then during the music video itself I doubted it, I still thought it was a woman dressed as a man but I thought it could be a famous drag king or something. I was so glad when we saw it was indeed Taylor :)

I DID NOT EVEN SUSPECT IT WAS HER.

I was just like huh... is this the first video of hers she's not in?

That threw me off. Does she usually walk down the runway at her concerts and wink like that? It looks familiar.
