Taylor Swift takes it back to the 70s in her passionate, sultry music video for “Lavender Haze” released on Friday (Jan 27). Since the clip’s release, it has amassed over 11 million views and is the No. 1 trending music video on YouTube (as of Jan. 30).
Written and directed by Swift, the visual for her No. 2 Billboard Hot 100 hit “Lavender Haze” digs into a newfound seductive side of the international pop star. Swift emulates a captivating 70s look in sparkling lavender eyeshadow and a matching fur coat, until she channels her bolder side, flirtatiously mouthing the words to the song while topless in a lavender-colored pool.
The video is a compilation of steamy purple passion, with shots of Swift crawling through a maze of lavender, dancing in a mist and puffing out clock-shaped purple smoke.
Many fans wondered what the meaning was behind the track’s title.
“I happened upon the phrase Lavender Haze when I was watching Mad Men, and I looked it up because I thought it sounded cool,” she shared in an Instagram video. “And it turns out that it’s a common phrase used in the ’50s where they would just describe being in love, like, you were in the lavender haze, and that meant that you were in that all-encompassing love glow, and I thought that was really beautiful.”

Taylor Swift is the leading nominee in music categories at the 2023 Kids’ Choice Awards. Swift has five nods – including two for favorite song, “Anti-Hero” and “Bejeweled.” And Swift’s nods don’t even count one for her cat, Olivia Benson Swift. The feline is vying for favorite celebrity pet. (It could be awkward at home if the cat won and Swift didn’t, but with five nods, that probably won’t happen.)
Harry Styles is the runner-up with four nods in music categories. Beyoncé and Lizzo have three each.
Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards 2023 are set to air live on Saturday, March 4, at 7 p.m. (ET/PT) from the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles for the first time. TikTok star Charli D’Amelio and Nate Burleson, co-host of CBS Mornings and CBS Sports analyst, will co-host the show.
Nominees for favorite breakout artist are Devon Cole, Dove Cameron, GAYLE, Joji, Lauren Spencer-Smith and Nicky Youre. None of these hitmakers were Grammy-nominated for best new artist. Cameron, GAYLE, Joji and Spencer-Smith were entered and eligible in that category, but failed to be nominated.
Some music stars are competing in other fields. Olivia Rodrigo is nominated for favorite female TV star (kids) for her role as Nini in High School Musical: The Musical: The Series. Selena Gomez is nominated for favorite voice from an animated movie (female) for her role as Mavis in Hotel Transylvania: Transformania.

Taylor Swift surprised Swifties on Thursday (Feb. 2) with a new version of Red (Taylor’s Version) on vinyl, and it’s finally available in, you guessed it, burning red. http://instagram.com/p/Cj93pscOJUX “How are we celebrating All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (The Short Film)’s #GRAMMYs nominations? Dancing ‘round the kitchen in the refrigerator light…and heading to store.taylorswift.com to get #RedTaylorsVersionVinyl in burning red, while supplies last,” Taylor Nation shared on its social media accounts to spread the news. Previously, the red edition of the re-recording had only been available as a Target exclusive, while the vinyl sold from Swift’s official webstore was just basic black when the album was released in Nov. 2021. At the time, the fan favorite record moved 605,000 album equivalent units to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. Of that number, 114,000 were vinyl sales, and Red (Taylor’s Version) ultimately ended the year as the third top-selling vinyl of 2021 after just seven weeks of sales. While some fans clamored in the comments for info on the next re-recording their queen might have up her sleeve — ahem, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version), anyone? — others were happy to revel in the refrigerator light of their favorite autumn album. “I remember this era all too well,” one fan commented. Others added sentiments like, “it’s always time for the red era,” “More like all too unwell now,” and “red (taylor’s version) as a red vinyl??? absolute PERFECTION!!!” (There was also a particularly hilarious joker, who couldn’t help deadpanning, “We were all wrong Red (Taylor’s Version) was actually next.”)
