Taylor Swift’s 'You Need to Calm Down': All the Easter Eggs you may have missed in the music video

Taylor Swift recently released the second single  'You Need to Calm Down'  from her upcoming album Lover. The music video for the song, which released on Monday, includes cameos from Katy Perry, Ryan Reynolds, the Queer Eye cast, Billy Porter, Laverne Cox, among others. Swift has a pro-LGBTQ message and even references the gay rights organization GLAAD. The video directed by Drew Kirsch and Swift herself contains numerous Easter eggs, from possible collaborators to song titles.

The singer’s new cat Benjamin Button, who was also present in the video for ‘Me!’, is also illustrated in the dial. A collaboration with Hayley Kiyoko [caption id=“attachment_6838331” align=“alignnone” width=“825”] YouTube[/caption] Hayley Kiyoko shoots an arrow at a target with the number 5. Does this mean the two will collaborate on track no. 5? “Mom, I am a rich man” painting [caption id=“attachment_6838451” align=“alignnone” width=“825”] YouTube[/caption] The painting references Cher’s quote from a 1996 interview, where she says, “My mom said to me, ‘You know, sweetheart, one day you should settle down and marry a rich man.’ I said, ‘Mom, I am a rich man.’” This could either be a song title or a collaboration with Cher. The back tattoo [caption id=“attachment_6838631” align=“alignnone” width=“825”] YouTube[/caption] Swift sports a tattoo with a snake surrounded by a swarm of butterflies on the single’s cover. This could mean she is leaving the Reputation era behind, which embraced the  snake imagery, especially after her feud with Kim Kardashian in 2016. The singer was spammed with snake emojis after Kardashian shared a video of Kanye West and Swift’s conversation about his song ‘Famous’ on Snapchat. Legally Blonde reference

Swift’s striking pink fur coat and swimsuit look and another sequence of her on a pool float is a nod to Reese Witherspoon’s Elle Woods from Legally Blonde.
