  "account": "Taylor Swift recently released her album, The Life of a Showgirl: The Encore, sparking her \"Taylor Swift season.\" On her latest single, Project Zero, Swift appeared on Saturday Night Live (SNL), hosted by her costar Dakota Johnson. Johnson, who plays a role in the music video for Project Zero, used the monologue to promote her new film Verity and discuss her history of dating musicians. During her segment, Johnson introduced Swift as \"my literal therapist\" and joked that Swift would bring an empty bottle of wine to her house weekly to offer comfort. However, SNL kept Swift's cameo a secret during the dress rehearsal, surprising Johnson on air. Before departing the show, Swift handed Johnson a birthday cake, marking Johnson's 37th birthday during the episode.",
