where is taylor swift's delicate video filmed
Delicate (Taylor Swift song) The music video for "Delicate" premiered on March 11, 2018 at the 2018 iHeartRadio Music Awards after Swift accepted her award for "Female Artist of the Year". Directed by Joseph Kahn, it was shot in various locations around Los Angeles including the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, the 7th Street/Metro Center station, the Los Angeles Theater and adjacent St. Vincent's Court, and the Golden Gopher bar.[6] It features Swift discovering that she is invisible after a mystery man hands her a note, and is a satire and symbolic of Taylor being herself for the first time, and not caring about how others view her.[7][8] The video gained almost 13 million views in the first 24 hours of release.[9] As of May 2018, the music video has gained over 170 million views on YouTube.[10]
Teardrops on My Guitar Swift was inspired to write "Teardrops on My Guitar" about her experience with a boy named Drew Hardwick, a classmate of hers whom she had feelings for. Hardwick later went on to join the Navy. During their freshman year of high school at Hendersonville High School,[5][6] Swift and Hardwick sat beside each other in a class everyday. The two developed a fond friendship, although Swift secretively desired for it to become a romantic relationship. Because of Hardwick's unawareness, he would frequently speak to Swift about a girl he had feelings for, something Swift pretended to be endeared by, commenting, "How beautiful she was, how nice and smart and perfect she was. And I sat there and listened, never meaning it any of the times I said 'Oh, I'm so happy for you.'"[7] Hardwick and his love interest eventually developed a relationship which lasted for a few years. Swift never confessed her feelings to him. By the release of Taylor Swift, he remained unaware of Swift's intentions or the song and continued his relationship with the same female.[7] Upon "Teardrops on My Guitar"'s release as a single, Hardwick attempted to contact Swift via phone calls, which Swift did not respond to; he then left voicemails, but Swift felt too awkward to call back.[8]
