22 Hilarious Memes About Taylor Swift’s ‘You Need To Calm Down’ Music Video
Coinciding with Pride Month, Taylor Swift has dropped one hell of a music video for her new single ‘You Need To Calm Down’, which includes cameos from a bunch of LGBTIQ+ celebs.
We’ve got Ellen DeGeneres, RuPaul, Adam Lambert, Laverne Cox, the entire Queer Eye crew and many other queer artists all making an appearance. But the moment that has fans losing their goddamn minds comes at the end of the clip, as Katy Perry appears dressed as a burger while Taylor is wearing a fries costume, forming the perfect happy meal.
As we all know, Taylor and Katy have had a long-held beef which was laid out in the track ‘Bad Blood’. Hallelujah, we have peace in the pop world once more.
‘You Need To Calm Down’ is the follow-up single to the sickly sweet ‘ME!’ and is off Taylor’s upcoming album Lover. There is a lot to digest in the video clip.
Between the drag queens dressing up as pop stars, the homophobic picket line and err.. Ryan Reynolds appearing out of nowhere, the music video has offered up plenty of meme material.
Here are some of our fave memes (so far) about Taylor Swift’s ‘You Need To Calm Down’ music video!
