Taylor Swift has brought her A-game once again by casting none other than Graham Norton in the music video for her latest single 'Opalite'. The charismatic chat show host has proven to be an ideal fit for the whimsical and fantastical video, which features a retro 90s aesthetic. In the video, Norton plays the role of a salesman hawking a reverse serum called Nope-alite, adding a dash of humor to the story.
Swift had initially teamed up with Norton during her appearance on his chat show in October 2025, and upon seeing their on-screen chemistry, she thought of incorporating him into her music video project. The result is an entertaining and visually striking clip that showcases Swift's creative vision. Alongside Norton, the video also features a star-studded cast including actors Domhnall Gleeson, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lewis Capaldi, and even a cameo by Cillian Murphy as a billboard image.
Swift has raved about Norton's performance, describing him as 'insanely charismatic and lovable'. It's clear that the chat show host has won her over with his quick wit and charm. The fact that all the guests from her chat show appearance that night came together to contribute to the video is a testament to Norton's growing transatlantic appeal.
With 'Opalite' already gaining traction in the charts, this music video is likely to propel the song even higher up the ranks. Fans can now enjoy the exclusive clip on Spotify and Apple Music, with a YouTube release scheduled for Sunday.

I mean, sure Graham Norton is charming and all, but is it really necessary to have him in a wacky salesman role? 
It feels like a gimmick to me. And what about the guest cast? Just because they all appeared on her chat show together doesn't mean this video is going to be some kind of masterclass in collaboration... 
I'm still waiting to see if 'Opalite' lives up to the hype, and we'll just have to wait until Sunday for the full YouTube release 
he's so charming! gotta say, the 90s vibe is really cool tho. not sure what to make of the reverse serum plot tho 
I'm loving how Taylor Swift's music videos are becoming mini-movies! The way she curates her cast and crew is always impressive. Graham Norton being part of this video is pure genius - he just oozes charm and wit, you can already imagine him as the perfect salesman for Nope-alite 
i mean graham norton in a 90s themed video selling a serum that sounds like the worst thing ever? its perfect casting tbh he's got such great chemistry with taylor on tv and now on screen together they're just meant to be 
the star-studded cast is also a big plus idk what i'm gonna do with myself till this vid drops on sunday 
. Taylor's music vids are always so visually stunning, can't wait to see this one on youtube on sunday!
