Roll call! With just under a week to go until she premieres her new music video for the vengeful "Bad Blood," Taylor Swift has been teasing fans via Sin City-esque character posters for all the famous faces set to star alongside her in the vid.
The "Style" singer, 25, recruited some of her many celeb BFFs for the project, putting together a posse of truly badass ladies. Each has a different femme fatale alter ego, which — according to a tweet from the 1989 hitmaker — they chose themselves.
Swift's "Bad Blood" persona, natch, is Catastrophe, emphasis on the "cat." Her poster was the first of the bunch on May 7, and shows her staring down the camera while rocking a leather motorcycle jacket and some seriously fierce eye makeup.

Both Swift and Perry dated John Mayer, but Swift insists their beef is professional, not personal. "She did something so horrible. I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies!' And it wasn't even about a guy!" she shared. "It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I'm surprisingly non-confrontational — you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It's awkward, and I don't like it."
