The video for Taylor Swift‘s new single, “Look What You Made Me Do,” premiered during the MTV VMAs on Sunday night. The visual was packed with hidden references to Taylor’s ex-lovers, celebrity feuds, and past personas — and during one scene, it appears that she may have taken a swipe at a few of her (former?

Taylor addressed the backlash in a 2016 Vogue interview, calling the accusations “hurtful” and adding, “When we’re all friends in fifteen years and raising our kids together, maybe somebody will look back and go, ‘That was kind of ridiculous what we said about Taylor and her friends.'”
In one of the scenes of her “LWYMMD” video, Taylor is seen wearing the outfit from her 2009 “You Belong With Me” video — thick-rimmed glasses, plaid pajama pants, and an oversize “Junior Jewels” t-shirt scrawled with the names of her high school BFFs — only this time, the tee is emblazoned with the names of Taylor’s real-life friends, and it’s the missing monikers that are very telling.
Here are the names that are written on Taylor’s t-shirt:
- Lena: Taylor and Lena Dunham are close friends, and Lena’s boyfriend, Jack Antonoff, produced 1989 as well as “Look What You Made Me Do. ”
- Danielle, Este, and Alana: The Haim sisters are regularly spotted at Taylor’s Fourth of July parties.
- Selena: Taylor has been BFFs with Selena Gomez for years, and despite past rifts, it seems the two are still…
