Taylor Swift fans have been waiting to see her new Patient Zero music video on YouTube since it first premiered at the MTV Video Music Awards.
The video was shown during the awards show over the weekend, but it did not appear on Swift’s YouTube channel right away. This left many fans wondering when they would finally be able to watch it there.
The wait is now almost over.
Taylor Nation has confirmed that Patient Zero will be added to Swift’s YouTube channel later today, September 29.
The video stars Colin Farrell, Dakota Johnson and Cara Delevingne, with Swift taking charge as its director. Until now, fans could watch it on music services including Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music.
Swift previously explained that she wanted the video to feel dark and mysterious.

“With the Patient Zero video, I got to explore the cinematic and literary genres I love so much. I wanted to incorporate elements of gothic ghost stories, true crime, psychological thrillers all in a setting I hadn’t really shot in much. The house was a metaphor for the coldness of a relationship that’s faded and atrophied,” she said.
Swift may have also given fans a small clue about the video last year.
During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, she spoke about an old British house, a strange relationship and a murder from the past.
