The pop megastar dropped the song's star-studded, 90s-inspired music video on Friday, Feb. 6
An indie singer-songwriter is accusing Taylor Swift of copying their music video concept, claiming Swift’s video features elements similar to the indie artist’s own project released nearly a year earlier.
Taylor Swift's "Opalite" music video is now available to watch on Apple Music and Spotify. It will be available to watch on YouTube Sunday, Feb. 8.
Opalite is the second single from Swift’s album The Life of a Showgirl, which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in October 2025 with 4.002 million equivalent album units — the largest single-week consumption figure in the chart’s history, surpassing Adele ‘s 25.
In the music video that Swift wrote and directed, the singer-songwriter enlisted help from those she was guests with on 'The Graham Norton Show' last October including Cillian Murphy, Greta Lee and Jodie Turner-Smith.
On 6, Taylor Swift released the music video for her song Opalite from The Life of a Showgirl, which was released in October 2025. Days later, Gabi Gamberg, the musician behind the indie band Daffo, accused the pop star of plagiarizing one of her works.
The bonus versions include Swift describing the genesis of the throwback clip.
