Updated Wednesday, August 23 at 9:45 a.m. PT:
After posting the snake video, Swift followed up with three more Instagram posts revealing her new single will drop on August 24 and her upcoming album, titled "Reputation," will be released November 10.
Both the title "Reputation" and cover art filled with faux newspaper headlines make it seem like she'll reference recent headlines about her in the media. Her 3-part snake video on Instagram also appears to allude to her feud with Kim Kardashian.

Previously:
Taylor Swift exposed the head of the snake Wednesday that she has been mysteriously teasing on Instagram this week and social media is "shook."
The singer has posted three consecutive videos showing nothing more than different sections of a reptilian on social media and it has sparked confusion, anticipation and excitement over whatever she has up her sleeve this weekend. The "Shake It off" singer also switched things up by posting Wednesday's video an hour earlier than her daily tease slot.

Fans on Twitter are convinced the snake is foreshadowing a Kim Kardashian and Katy Perry diss track.
See the outrage fans started about her latest Instagram post.

Yikes you have no idea what you're talking about. She's been called a snake for years. But go off and stay bitter.
