WATCH: Taylor Swift And Her Celebrity BFFs Kill It In The Music Video For "Bad Blood"
So, did that live up to the hype? After weeks of shameless promotion and teasing of the music video for Taylor Swift's new single, "Bad Blood," the vid finally made its debut at the very beginning of tonight's Billboard Music Awards. And honestly, at this point we can call the rest of a show a wash because OMG, that video was epic and nothing else even matters.
As we knew ahead of time, Taylor was joined in the video by an insane amount of celebrities, ranging from some of her besties, Hailee Steinfeld, Karlie Kloss, Lena Dunham and last minute addition Selena Gomez, to a somewhat more random selection of stars including Ellen Pompeo and Mariska Hargitay. But each celebrity had a clearly defined character role in the futuristic video, which felt like a combination of an awesome video game and a girl power-filled action film.
