Joseph Khan, Taylor Swift’s Video Director Says Beyoncé Copied Taylor

Music video director Joseph Kahn, who directed Taylor Swift’s new music video for “Look What You Made Me Do” has decided to defend Swift by claiming Beyonce copied her.

“If I plan something as a man I’m a ‘genius.’ If Taylor as a woman plans something she is ‘manipulative.’ Double standards. This is wrong,” Kahn said in a tweet on Wednesday.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Kahn addressed the online criticism that Swift’s “Look What You Made Me Do” video copied Beyoncé’s “Formation.”

“It’s not ‘Formation’ at all,” Kahn said. “They try to say she’s wearing a black crop top and Beyoncé wore a black crop top. But they don’t realize in 2015 in ‘Bad Blood,’ Taylor Swift was wearing a black crop top. I really do think, by the way, that Beyoncé copied ‘Bad Blood.’”

If Khan truly believes that people were only talking about a crop top, then he’s sadly mistaken, and really needs to find his own concepts, or address similarities head on and fully.
