Taylor Swift Cast In 'New Girl' Season 2 Finale

Taylor Swift is everywhere these days and now she’ll be on your TV as well. No, it’s not some TV music special or awards show, but she’s actually going to be on prime time television – Fox’s New Girl season finale to be exact.

As first seen in The Hollywood Reporter, the Grammy winner plays an “important guest” who attends CeCe (Hannah Simone) and Shivrang’s (Satya Bhabha) wedding. Hopefully she breaks them up and paves the way for Schmidt (Max Greenfield) and CeCe to rekindle their love connection…but that’s just my humble opinion.

This isn’t Swifty’s first foray into acting. You might remember seeing her in a particularly puzzling CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episode back in 2009. She also voiced the female lead in The Lorax opposite Zac Efron and had a mushy cameo in Valentine’s Day opposite Twilight actor Taylor Lautner. Swift also hosted Saturday Night Live not too long ago, so at least she has some experience with the whole “comedy” thing.

Swift is another name to add to the long list of celebrity cameos on New Girl this past season. She joins Brooklyn Decker, Olivia Munn, and many others – including all of Nick Miller’s (Jake Johnson) family that we met in last week’s episode.

I just pray she doesn’t start dating one of the characters on screen OR off. The last thing the world needs is more Taylor Swift relationship drama – whether it be scripted or not.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
