To celebrate Pride, Taylor Swift has released a star-studded music video You Need To Calm Down.

The video has a legion of queer celebrities doing famously queer things such as sipping tea, performing in drag, and getting married in matching baby-blue tuxes.

Look out for; Hannah Hart, Dexter Mayfield, RuPaul and his Drag Race queens, the new Queer Eye fab 5, Adam Rippon, Laverne Cox, Billy Porter, Ellen, Chester Lockhart, Todrick Hall, Hayley Kiyoko, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Justin Mikita, Ciara, Adam Lambert, Katy Perry and Ryan Reynolds.

The second song from her forthcoming album Love Taylor uses pop to throw shade on anti-LGBTIQ people by telling them “to calm down”.

Swift posted behind the scenes on Instagram.
