A new music video for Taylor Swift’s “Lavender Haze” song sends her fans into a frenzy.
In the futuristic-looking video, Swift is seen taking a bath in a purple pool while cuddling up to the similarly naked transgender model Laith Ashley, who performs the role of her lover.
She dubbed the new music video for her song “a sensual sleepless dream of the 1970s.”. The short film was also written and directed by her, just like her previous singles “Midnights: Bejeweled” and “Anti-Hero.”.
“Lavender Haze’s music video is available right now. There is a lot of lavender. There is a lot of haze. There’s my incredible co-star @laith_ashley, who I loved working with,” Swift wrote on social media.
“This was the first of the three videos I wrote that were made and released, and it was a huge help to me in conceptualizing the world and tone of ‘Midnights.’.
“It’s like a sensual, restless dream from the 1970s. Wish you would like it. “.
Swift received praise for using a transgender model in her music video.
The inclusion of a trans model, like Laith Ashley, in the video was praised by her supporters on Twitter.
Peace and love on earth wrote to one fan, “the love interest in Taylor Swift’s lavender haze is a trans man.”.
Another said, “Taylor Swift likes trans people; I’m going to swoon.”.
Ashley, 33, started changing her gender in 2014 and underwent surgery in 2015 after taking testosterone for two years.
Since then, Ashley has started a modeling career and participated in parades during New York Fashion Week.
