While I believe the actual clip of Taylor introducing her new video was pre recorded only an hour earlier, when your caught up in the excitement of the videos release, it doesn't really matter. Taylor took the direction of this video to a whole new level and it was something no one was really expecting. 1950's africa and a movie scene was something no one saw coming.
The release of Wildest Dreams is the 5th single off 1989 behind Shake It Off, Blank Space, Style and Bad Blood.
Taylor took on a different look in this video going brunette with a wig that had her hair longer than her current golden blonde hair. Brunette on Taylor is something I had to do a double take on to ensure myself it was actually her, but should she ever make the switch to darker hair, it would certainly suit her nicely.
Whether Taylor actually went to Africa or not is still opening debated given she is currently on her 1989 world tour and has no more than a week off between shows, however it is something we may never know. The director Joseph Khan however did confirm that he travelled to South Africa to get the shots of the animals used in the video.
It was also noted at the end of the video that all proceeds from the video will go back into African wildlife conservation.
I absolutely adore the video Taylor, Just is there going to be a tour music video at all?
