You must be wondering, “What is Taylor Swift doing now?” Lucky for you, the mega-popstar wants you to find out.

AT&T, which launched [a massive partnership with Swift](http://ew.com/article/2016/10/04/taylor-swift-att-deal/) last year, released new promos today for Taylor Swift Now Thursday morning, teasing an all-access peek for subscribers.

Bonus? They’re pretty charming to watch, especially when she gets in a fight with funnyman Andy Samberg.

Swift also posted a behind-the-scenes look at the behind-the-scenes content, where she runs lines, gets her makeup done, and, as she admits, method acts and is “actually eating the food each time.”

So far she has shared “[Look What You Made Me Do](http://ew.com/music/2017/08/24/taylor-swift-new-song-look-what-you-made-me-do/)” and “[Ready For It](http://ew.com/music/2017/09/03/taylor-swift-ready-for-it/).” She’s also featured on the side of delivery trucks as part of a partnership [with UPS](http://ew.com/music/2017/08/25/taylor-swift-reputation-cover-ups-trucks/).
