Taylor Swift fans has noticed a little change that she seemingly made to a behind-the-scenes clip from her “Bejeweled” music video. The footage that was filmed in 2022, originally showed an apparent photo of the singer with ex Joe Alwyn as her phone background. However, the image was seemingly blurred out after it went viral online via Life & Style.
On December 13th, Taylor’s 35th birthday, several BTS video clips from her recent music videos were dropped on her official YouTube page. In one of the clips from the “Bejeweled” video, which Taylor, directed, the pop star was holding her phone in her hand and the screen was visible. The background appeared to be a picture of Taylor with then-boyfriend Joe, and fans began circulating it on social media.
A few days later, the video was updated with the phone background blurred out. At this point, social media became flooded with fans slamming others for pointing out the original image, which was featured in such a subtle and unintentional way in the BTS clip.
“I honestly don’t blame Taylor at all for rarely sharing anything about her personal life on social media anymore. The fact that her lockscreen in the Bejeweled bts video had to be blurred out because her own fans can’t be normal, it’s actually so embarrassing,” one person wrote on X.
Another said, “It makes me sad on taylor’s behalf that they had to go back and blur her personal lockscreen in that video because people couldn’t be normal about it and respectful of taylor, the person,” and someone else wrote, “Coming back to Taylor having to blur out *that* picture from the bejeweled BTS video… because some of you cannot be normal!!! she was with that man for almost a decade, her bf at the time was her lockscreen, idk why that’s shocking or needs to be pointed out.”
