Taylor Swift dropped the "Ready for It" video on Friday at midnight, and the entire internet exploded with opinions. One of the recurring ones? That Taylor appears to be naked in the video.

But Taylor just set everyone straight on Instagram—with photos of the naked bodysuit she was wearing. In two photos on Instagram Stories, the singer posted a classic Taylor response.

“It truly warms my heart that ppl had so much to say about this bodysuit,” she captioned one pic, adding a tears of joy emoji.

In another, she gave fans a full look at her uncanny valley-esque costume.

So there you have it. Taylor isn't naked in her new video, she's just wearing a creepy flesh-colored bodysuit.
