With the Eras Tour dominating the global landscape and re-releasing one re-recorded album after another, Taylor Swift has had her plate quite full. Her latest music video for ‘I Can See You’ from Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) features a familiar face that longtime Swifties will remember: Presley Cash. Fans have been wondering where they have seen her before and how the two are connected. Let’s take a deep dive into how Taylor Swift met Presley Cash and learn more about the ‘I Can See You’ music video co-star.
Exploring Presley Cash and Taylor Swift’s friendship
Let’s cut to the chase: if Presley Cash looked oddly familiar while watching Taylor Swift’s I Can See You, it’s because she has already starred in another one of her music videos in 2010. The 26-year-old featured in the music video for the pop star’s country song, Mean.
While this marked the beginning of Presley Cash and Taylor Swift’s friendship, it also paved the way for a career in the entertainment industry. Born on June 13, 1997, in Missouri, United States, Presley Cash began her career in theater at a young age.

She honed her skills in local productions before venturing into the world of film after graduating from high school. Presley Cash went on to act and direct in various projects, such as Abide in Me (2011). Most notably, she appeared in Bradley Cooper’s remake of A Star Is Born.
Taylor Swift’s new music video for ‘I Can See You’
The track ‘I Can See You’ got the ‘(From the Vault)’ tag and special music video treatment, written by Taylor Swift herself. Of course, the pop icon is just as accomplished at directing music videos as much as she is at singing and songwriting.
To bring this track to life, Taylor Swift called upon Presley Cash, as well as some big names like Taylor Lautner and Joey King. While it’s common knowledge that Lautner and Swift dated back when the album was released, Joey King also starred in Mean’s MV as a child actor.

In the music video for ‘I Can See You’, Taylor Swift and Presley Cash reunite after 13 years. The video has a thrilling narrative: Joey King and Taylor Lautner battle ninjas and dodge lasers to rescue a captive Swift. Meanwhile, Presley Cash operates from a stakeout van outside.
Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) explained
Almost 13 years after Mean’s music video starring Presley Cash, Taylor Swift has re-released the studio album to which the song belonged. Speak Now (Taylor’s Version) brought some iconic tracks like Back to December to life again.
The ‘I Can See You’ music video symbolizes Taylor Swift’s journey to reclaim her music. For the uninitiated, Scooter Braun acquired Big Machine Records and, in turn, Taylor Swift’s catalog of master recordings.
As a result, she began re-recording her earlier albums and releasing them as the now-iconic Taylor’ Versions. The new music video is an expression of Swift taking back ownership of her music with the support of her dedicated fan base.
