Lewis Capaldi<\/a> has thanked Taylor Swift after she cast him in her star-studded Opalite music video as a photographer.<\/p>\n

The singing superstar, 36, sent fans wild as she released her latest music video, in which every celebrity she appeared with on The Graham Norton<\/a> Show last year made a cameo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Taylor made an appearance on Graham’s UK chat show alongside Lewis, Domhnall Gleeson, Cillian Murphy<\/a>, Jodie Turner-Smith<\/a>, and Greta Lee.<\/p>\n

During the show, Irish actor Domhnall made a jokey comment about his hopes to star in a T-Swift music video – which gave Taylor an idea.\u00a0<\/p>\n

One of the guests on the show to eventually cast in the video was Scottish singer Lewis, who portrayed a photographed snapping Taylor and Domhnall.<\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Lewis shared an array of snaps from the video captioned: ‘Thank you for having me @taylorswift <\/span>\u2764\ufe0fx.’\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Lewis shared an array of snaps from the video captioned: ‘T hank you for having me @taylorswift \u2764\ufe0fx’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Released yesterday, the Nineties-themed video stars Domhnall, 42, as the love interest for 36-year-old Taylor’s character.<\/p>\n

The storyline initially follows their surreal relationships \u2013 Domhnall with a cactus and Taylor with a rock \u2013 before the two meet with the help of a ‘magical’ spray bottle labelled Opalite.<\/p>\n

Graham, 62, appears in a scene promoting another spray, while Cillian, 49, is pictured in an advert for Opalite.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lewis, 29, plays a photographer, while actresses Greta, 42, and Jodie, 39, are seen on retro TV screens.<\/p>\n

Writing on Instagram on Friday, Taylor revealed the idea for the video ‘crash landed into my imagination’ during her October appearance on BBC1’s The Graham Norton Show.<\/p>\n

The pop star was there to promote her latest album The Life Of A Showgirl, which includes the Opalite track.<\/p>\n

‘When we were all talking during the broadcast, Domhnall made a light-hearted joke about wanting to be in one of my music videos,’ she wrote on Friday.<\/p>\n

‘He’s Irish! He was joking! Except that in that moment during the interview, I was instantly struck with an idea.’<\/p>\n

One week after the show, Taylor sent Domhnall a script she had written for the Opalite video which would see him in the starring role.<\/p>\n

‘I had this thought that it would be wild if all of our fellow guests on the Graham Norton show that night, including Graham himself, could be a part of it too,’ she continued. ‘Like a school group project but for adults and it isn’t mandatory.’<\/p>\n

‘I had more fun than I ever imagined,’ Taylor added. ‘Made new friends, metaphors, and fashion choices. It was an absolute thrill to create this story and these characters.’<\/p>\n

Taylor said she was delighted that everyone from the episode – including talk show host Graham – agreed to appear in the shoot.<\/p>\n

Her Graham Norton Show episode aired October 3, the same day her album Life of a Showgirl was released.<\/p>\n

During the show, she showed off her engagement ring and was asked about wedding plans with her husband-to-be Travis Kelce.<\/a><\/p>\n

‘You’ll know. I want to do the album stuff first, and the wedding is what happens after in terms of planning,’ she told Graham.<\/p>\n

‘I think it will be fun to plan.’<\/p>\n

Fans went\u00a0wild for the new music video, with\u00a0<\/a>some said the ’90s retro vibe was ‘crazy’ as they loved seeing the songbird in the vintage outfits.<\/p>\n

Her followers seemed to be obsessing over one item in particular from the long clip which sees her on a swing with a rock and also posing with aerobic dancers.<\/p>\n

The item is an ivory sweatshirt with a cat on front. The feline is clinging to a tree limb.<\/p>\n

‘I need this sweatshirt right now, it is meowfully wonderful, I am obsessed,’ said one fan on X while another added, ‘I am going cats*** over this top, please tell me universe where to buy it ASAP, I need this in my life.’<\/p>\n

Taylor is a big fan of cats and even has a few of her own: Meredith Grey (Scottish Fold), Olivia Benson (Scottish Fold), and Benjamin Button (Ragdoll), named after characters from Grey’s Anatomy,\u00a0Law & Order: SVU, and the film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, respectively.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
