Taylor Swift Crashes an Ex’s Wedding in Her and Blake Lively’s ‘I Bet You Think About Me’ Music Video

Taylor Swift started the new week off with one surprise gift for everyone: the music video for her new Red “From the Vault” track, “I Bet You Think About Me.” Blake

Lively and Swift wrote the story for the video together, and Lively makes her directorial debut with the piece. The song itself seems to be a more lighthearted diss track about Swift's ex, Jake Gyllenhaal.

The music video, meanwhile, depicts Swift—dressed in red, naturally—crashing an ex (played by Miles Teller)'s all-white wedding. Teller's character, over the course of the video, can't escape Swift or his feelings for her despite getting married to someone else. The day itself becomes more and more red, literally. Watch it in full below. There's some great Swift fashion moments, including her in a show-stopping wedding gown:

Swift previously spoke in 2011 about her process writing “I Bet You Think About Me.” “This is a song I wrote with Lori McKenna, who's one of my favorite singer-songwriters ever,” she started, via Billboard. “I'd always wanted to work with her...I wrote this with her at her house when I was playing Foxboro [Gillette Stadium] on the Speak Now Tour. We wanted this song to be like a comedic, tongue-in-cheek, funny, not caring what anyone thinks about you sort of breakup song because there are a lot of different types of heartbreak songs on Red—some of them are very sincere, some of them very stoic and heartbreaking and sad—we wanted this to be the moment where you're like, ‘I don't care about anything.’ We wanted to kind of make people laugh with it, and we wanted it to be sort of a drinking song. I think that that's what it ended up being.”
