‘I know from living in this town for so many years that there’s a lot of girls out there in the audience with a lot of dreams in their head. This song goes out to you, alright?’ 

The crowd erupts when the Look What You Made Me Do hit maker begins singing.

On Monday, Billboard reported that Swift would be the November 11 musical guest on Saturday Night Live.

This will mark the Ready For It’s third SNL appearance as she promotes her forthcoming album, Reputation.
