And Swift’s latest directing achievement was on display during the award show—hosted by Snoop Dogg—as she premiered her new music video for “Patient Zero,” starring Dakota Johnson and Colin Farrell.
The video comes just days after Swift dropped “Patient Zero” on her Sept. 25 release The Life of a Showgirl: Encore. In addition to the new track, the album included three additional new songs including “Pink Clouding,” “Babylon” and “Cleveland!,” the latter of which was all about her love story with husband Travis Kelce.
“Something we all can agree on / But my baby likes what he likes,” she sings on the track. “He already took me to Cleveland / And showed me The Heights, so hate all you like / This is the love of my life.”
