Taylor has previously admitted that she’s wanted to keep her belly button a mystery, but she has shown it off in a bikini before. One specific instance came on a winter vacation to Hawaii with her friends in the band HAIM, in which she posed in a string two-piece on Instagram, certainly not shy about showing the area of her stomach she normally hides.

The whole thing was actually a way of getting revenge on photographers who were trying to take photos of her on the private vacation. “My security gets out binoculars and sees [the paparazzi on the boat] have a huge long-lens camera,” she explained. “At which point, we go back to the beach and we realize, ‘Okay, so they got pictures of us in our bikinis, like, I don’t want them to make, like, $100,ooo for stalking us!'”
This time, Taylor seems to be poking fun at herself for the previous hiding of the belly button, posing for a photo with a fan and deliberately lifting her shorts down to show her navel. But Photoshop experts on Reddit really found a way to have some fun with this one, replacing her belly button with funny characters and objects, while having others crawl out of her pants in hilarious GIFs.
Some of these are pretty amazing, we wish we thought of them ourselves! Check out a few of the best ones here:
