Swift does not appear in the video, instead compiling a "supercut" of scenes from Elizabeth Taylor's films, alongside archive clips and newsreels showing the actress being hounded by paparazzi. The clips include shots from films such as Cleopatra, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and the cult classic Boom!, in which Taylor plays a six-times-divorcee who is visited by the angel of death. Swift previously spoke of her admiration for the star, saying: "Role models are pretty hard to come by, but I would say she is one of mine."
