Taylor Swift puts Katy Perry beef to rest in video

Taylor Swift is shaking off her longstanding beef with Katy Perry.

The singers hug it out in Swift’s video for “You Need To Calm Down,” out Monday morning and the second single off her upcoming album “Lover.”

While the single signaled Swift’s latest contribution to LGBTQ rights, the video is anything but calm given its host of celebrity cameos. Swift’s notorious frenemy Perry appears, along with others including Ellen DeGeneres, Ryan Reynolds, RuPaul, Ciara and the men of “Queer Eye.”

In the video, 29-year-old Swift, dressed as a pack of french fries, spots an orange-haired Perry, 34, in a crowd, with the latter dressed as a burger.

The formerly feuding ladies have each since posted a shot of them hugging on Instagram, with Swift captioning the photo, “A happy meal,” and Perry writing, “This meal is BEEF-free MeatFreeMonday.”

Swift and Perry appeared to be close until a trio of backup dancers abandoned Swift’s 2013-14 Red Tour to work on Perry’s Prismatic World Tour.
