Teyana Taylor's Quotes

On the final shot: "We filmed that cat scene first," Taylor told Vogue. "We didn't shoot the video in order. I was in three hours of makeup and prosthetics to get that thing on my face. The director Eli [Linnetz], he wanted it to be a little bit sexy, so I drew my own brows on the cat face."
On what Kanye told her: "He was just like, I'm going to put you in this cat face. It's going to be chic. At the same time, being an actor, I love doing stuff like that. To be able to get dressed up and get out of my comfort zone."
On the significance of the sheep: "It was definitely something deep. The whole video is deeper than people probably processed it. So I feel like it's up for the people to figure it out. I get it, but I want them to really figure it out and really understand what's going on. And for them to understand, they're going to have to watch it 20, and 30, and 40 times."
