Taylor Swift dropped "
Look What You Made Me Do ," the first single from her upcoming album,
Reputation , last week, and the reactions from fans on social media
seemed to be mixed . Hours later, when
a teaser for the song's video premiered on
GMA , the comparisons to
Beyoncأ©'s "Formation" video came, well, swiftly; in one shot in particular,
Taylor stands in the middle of a line of carefully placed dancers - like, why are they segregated? - wearing a black fishnet bodysuit while in a stunning old home similar to the one featured in the Southern gothic Beyoncأ© clip.

While some of the comparisons are just plain funny, others
really take it there, calling out Taylor's history of skirting issues of race and equality and
using the topic of feminism only when it benefits her.
The reactions prompted a response from Joseph Kahn, the director of the "Look What You Made Me Do" music video. On Friday, he took to Twitter to deny that Taylor's
Video was influenced by "Formation":
I've worked with Beyoncأ© a few times. She's an amazing person. The #LWYMMDvideo is not in her art space. Love and respect to Bey.
