Meghan Trainor's 'Made You Look' is a new single that will be released exclusively through the Candy Crush Saga mobile game. The music video from the Grammy-winning pop star is yet another celebrity collaboration with the mobile game but it marks the first time that a music video is being placed in the app.
With its bright colors and the sense of escape it provides, the mobile game itself served as inspiration for the music video. The video tells the story of a day in the life of Trainor, who can be seen preparing for a photo shoot, a press conference and an awards show. This music video will only be available on the game for 24 hours and it offers a taste of Trainor’s fourth full-length album, Takin’ It Back, which launches shortly after.
