'Shake It Off' Outtakes Prove Taylor Swift Hates Running

Now’s your chance to go behind the scenes of Taylor Swift’s “Shake It Off” music video. After beating out Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” to be No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot 100, Swift tweeted the video and wrote, “I can’t thank radio and you all enough for the Hot 100 #1! But I can give you this video of Shake It Off outtakes …”

Based on the title — “Outtakes Video #1 ‘The Cheerleaders'” — this is just the first of a series of clips to be released about the filming. Directed by Mark Romanek, the music vid follows Swift being dorky with a bunch of different dance groups. “This is the most exciting music video I’ve ever done,” she says to the camera. Swift also says she prepared by running a lot — “which I hate!” See the outtakes from the cheerleader segment:
