Watch Taylor Swift turn into a psycho bitch in her amazing new video for Blank Space. The internet is buzzing over this music video, and quite rightly too – it’s a masterpiece! Taylor turns from a daydream into a nightmare in the space of 4 short minutes in this funny, Joseph Kahn-directed video. The video carries the disclaimer “No animals, trees, automobiles or actors were harmed in the making of this video”.

The video begins with Taylor eating breakfast in bed in her opulent mansion, she’s cuddling a kitten and is flanked by two stunning white horses – just your average morning really. The dream life continues as she dines and dances with her beau, cycles round the living room, goes horse riding on the estate and picnics on the lawn. All hell breaks loose though when she catches her gorgeous lover texting another girl, “darling, I’m a nightmare dressed as a daydream.” She turns into the knife-wielding girlfriend in a perfect, ironic parody of what many assume is a Taylor Swift-ian lifestyle. She takes the caricature that she’s a psycho bitch and turns it back on her haters through her witty, clever song writing.
Her gorgeous co-star is male model Sean O’Pry – last year’s highest paid model worldwide and also born in 1989, like Taylor. Sean has appeared in nearly every huge campaign we can think of (currently the face for Viktor & Rolf Spicebomb Eau Fraiche) and you will have seen his face in nearly any magazine you’ve flipped through. Not surprisingly, Sean called the days spent filming with Taylor a “dream job” and explained what it was like to work with Taylor: “She deserves to be in the place she is. The way she handles things, the way she does things. She’s gorgeous, obviously. And very, very talented. When you bring [director] Joseph [Kahn] into the project, it was a winning idea right off the bat with those two.”
Blank Space is the second single from Taylor’s 5th studio album 1989, which has broken all records, selling 1.287 million copies in its first week of sale. Currently Nº1 on the Billboard 200 chart, the first single Shake it Off is spending it’s third week at Nº1 on the US charts.
