Music video director Mitch Moore took to social media this week to discuss how an unreleased music video he shot for the Canadian duo Majical Cloudz seemed pretty similar to The Weeknd’s video for “Can’t Feel My Face.”
Due to “creative differences” between Moore and the duo, the video was never released. “But the production was large, and many feedback emails were sent out with private uploads of the edit,” Moore stated on Instagram. “It’s come to my attention that some body at the helm of a certain mega popular video must have seen one or more of these unreleased edits. The resemblance is too uncanny.”
Both videos show a singer performing in a club who catches the eyes of a girl in the audience.
