Taylor Swift’s latest music video is all about glitter.
For the song “Elizabeth Taylor,” the pop star doesn’t show her face at all, opting to compile clips of the deceased movie star for the video.
Connected to the track of her eponymous song are clips of Taylor’s most iconic moments, both on and off-screen.
The video appears to be a fan flick that spans from 1950’s “Father of the Bride” to 1958’s “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” and later archival footage of Taylor and her husband Richard Burton.
Of course, all of her iconic jewelry is on display, including Burton’s massive 33-carat diamond ring.
The 33.19-carat Asscher-cut Taylor-Burton diamond ring given to Taylor in 1968, formerly known as the Krupp Diamond, sold for approximately $8.8 million at Christie’s.
Also featured is the Mike Todd Diamond Tiara, originally created in 1880 and featuring old mine-cut diamonds with a lattice-inspired design. The tiara was sold at auction in 2011 for more than $4.2 million.
The auction, held shortly after her death, donated proceeds to the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation.
As Swift’s voice can be heard singing, “All my white diamonds and my lovers are forever/In the papers, on the screen, in their hearts,” Taylor’s bejeweled hand reaches across the screen, wearing not only a giant diamond ring but also a diamond bracelet (though the latter was likely costume jewelry).
Unlike the singer’s other music videos, “Elizabeth Taylor” is less Swift-centric and serves more as a visual homage to the late actress.
This video is currently available only on Apple Music and Spotify.
