Taylor Swift rules celestial wonderland with Ice Spice in music video
Taylor Swift rules a celestial wonderland alongside Ice Spice in her new Karma remix music video
Taylor Swift is taking her fans on a psychedelic trip with rap phenom Ice Spice in her new music video.
The 33-year-old superstar – who seemingly hinted at the cause of her split with Joe Alwyn in the lyrics of her other song – dropped the whimsical video on Friday for the remix of her hit song Karma.
Swift treated her massive fanbase to a celestial wonderland, spiriting them away on an adventure with Ice Spice that embodied the vibe of her track’s titular Buddhist concept of what goes around comes around.
The remix is featured on Taylor’s new Midnights (Til Dawn Edition) deluxe album, and Ice Spice has been doing her part to help promote their new collaboration as she recently performed as a surprise guest on Swift’s blockbuster Eras Tour.
The 12-time Grammy winner kicked off her latest video as a golden goddess of law and order holding the scales of justice.

Enshrined in heavenly light, Taylor trades in her goddess look for a dark cult-like aesthetic as she lords over a group of masked dancers in a demonic labyrinth.
Switching things up yet again, the iconic songstress is soon walking along a yellow brick road à la Dorothy, sweeping her ‘side of the street clean’ as she waves to a group of cloaked grim reapers.
Then a gust of magical dust sees Taylor trapped in the center of an hourglass as the sands of time drain away.
She is soon lounging on the back of a massive kitten while singing lyrics like, ‘karma is a cat, purring in my lap ’cause it loves me.’
And that slumbering ball of fur soon transforms into a giant white pearl that is being held by the one and only Ice Spice.
Dressed in a shimmering red leotard that showcases her cleavage, the Gangsta Boo rapper delivers some bars from a bed inside a giant golden clam as pearls float all around her.
Both megastars are soon scaling a heavenly pyramid in bejeweled bodysuits, ascending into the sky above the clouds where they lasso a pair of planets with glowing rope.
Trapped behind glass once again, Taylor serves as the center of multiple lightbulbs as she holds up the beaming filaments with her bare hands before exploding into glass and smoke.

In an audio clip from Spotify, Swift revealed how the collaboration with the rapper came together.
‘Collaborating with Ice Spice on “Karma” was one of the most natural things. She reached out through her team, just kind of saying, “Hey, Ice has been a big fan of Taylor’s since she was a little kid, would love to collaborate if that was ever something that came about.”‘
‘I had been listening to her nonstop — like getting ready for my tour, I was just listening to Ice Spice constantly.’

Swift announced Midnights (Til Dawn Edition) via Instagram Earlier this week.
She wrote, ‘Um. SO much to tell you. I’m a massive fan of this brilliant artist and after getting to know her I can confirm: she is THE ONE to watch.’
‘So delighted to say that Karma Featuring the incredible @icespice will be out TOMORROW night at MIDNIGHT ET as a part of the new Midnights (Til Dawn Edition) deluxe album that you can pre-order now at store.taylorswift.com!’
