"Bejeweled" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her tenth studio album, Midnights (2022). She wrote and produced the song with Jack Antonoff. It is an upbeat synth-pop and bubblegum pop track with elements of disco and electronica, instrumented by ringing synth arpeggios. The lyrics are about Swift's narrator affirming her self-worth upon being unappreciated by her partner. Swift said the song was also a metaphorical statement of her return to pop music with Midnights after the 2020 folk-oriented albums Folklore and Evermore.

"Bejeweled" was released for limited-time download via Swift's website on October 25, 2022. Music critics complimented the song's upbeat production and considered the lyrics empowering, although a few considered it a weaker track on Midnights and questioned its placement. The song peaked at number eight on the Billboard Global 200 and within the top 10 on charts in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Singapore, the Philippines, and the United States. It received platinum or higher certifications in Australia, Brazil, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom.

Swift wrote and directed the music video for "Bejeweled". It stars Swift, Antonoff, Laura Dern, Haim, Dita Von Teese, and Pat McGrath. Influenced by "Cinderella", it features Swift as the protagonist reinventing herself and charming the prince, but she ultimately declines his marriage proposal. Swift included "Bejeweled" in the set list of her sixth headlining concert tour, the Eras Tour (2023–2024).
