Taylor Swift fans are convinced that she just shaded not one, but two of her and Travis Kelce's exes in her latest music video.
The American singer, 36, who's been engaged to the NFL star, also 36, since August, surprised fans by dropping a celebrity-filled music video for her hit single 'Opalite' today (Friday 6 February).
In a unique move, the video was released on Spotify Premium and Apple Music first, and won't hit YouTube until Sunday (8 February).
But fans who have already seen it have of course, in classic Swiftie fashion, already dissected it, hunted for secret references and pulled out Easter eggs and clues.

The video is a special one as it features everyone who appeared on The Graham Norton Show with Swift back in October - Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, Cillian Murphy, Lewis Capaldi, and of course, host Norton himself.
Set in the 80s, the video stars Swift as a singleton who starts dating a rock, while Gleeson finds romance with a cactus, before they ultimately fall for each other. Because, why not?
At the end of the video, after Swift and Gleeson's characters get together, a message flashes across the screen reading: “Rock and Cactus married in a small, intimate ceremony after meeting through Opalite.”
While a second message reads: "Garbage is still garbage.”
Fans are convinced that the rock represents Swift's ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn and the cactus is symbolic of Kelce's ex-girlfriend Kayla Nicole.
One social media user penned on X: "The concept of cactus hurting her more she tried to love him and the rock being boring as f***."

To which someone else replied: "Boring asf - Joe Alwyn to Taylor Swift. Hurting Cactus - Kayla Nicole to Travis Kelce."
A third chimed in with: "The cactus being representative of Kayla Nicole and the rock being Joe Alwyn… oh Taylor Swift your mind."
And a fourth agreed: "TAYLOR SWIFT IS A MASTERMIND AND I WONT BE HEARING ANYONE. Period. Calling #them rock and cactus in #opalite is absolute cinema. Anyway, garbage is still garbage."
"The ending where the rock and cactus are hanging out together and it says “garbage is still garbage” TAYLOR SWIFT IM CACKLING I LOVE YOU #OpaliteMusicVideo," gushed a fifth.

And a sixth piped up with: "#him being a rock holding her down & #her being a cactus who hurts him every time he gets close…… oh her mind."
While others chimed in with: "Is she saying her ex had the personality of a rock LMAO????" and "Joe Alwyn being as boring as the rock and Kayla Nicole being as toxic as the cactus im crying #OpaliteMusicVideo."
For those not up to date on their Tay and Trav lore, the singer dated actor Alwyn for six years between 2016 and 2023, keeping much of their time together private.
Meanwhile, Kelce and Nicole began dating in 2017 and had an on-again, off-again relationship until they permanently split in 2022.
Fans already have a theory that the track references Nicole, given the line: "You couldn’t understand it, why you felt alone / You were in it for real, she was in her phone / And you were just a pose.” Ouch!
