People Are Accusing Taylor Swift of Ripping off a Perfume Ad
Viewers have pointed out eerily similar features between Taylor Swift’s music video for her song “Delicate” and a fragrance ad from 2016.
The video follows the singer as she dances around in a hotel and along the streets while becoming invisible to the people around her.
Her act of dancing around the hotel echoes the style of a fragrance ad for Kenzo that was released in 2016. In it, a woman begins dancing madly around her hotel after being inspired by the perfume featured in the ad. Both women make bizarre faces in the video and do a strange gorilla walk movement at one point.
The similarities between the two videos are hard to ignore.
