Calvin Harris has given us a behind the scenes look at the music video for his fantastic collaboration 'One Kiss'. Calvin Harris teamed up with Dua Lipa last month for this summer anthem and now we get to see all the secrets of how the music video was produced.
The music video for 'One Kiss' finally dropped last week, a massive four weeks after the single entered the charts. In the video Dua Lipa is shown in a studio with various sunny backdrops, wearing some rather stunning outfits, including a sparkly, beaded outfit and a fitted purple suit, meanwhile the Scottish DJ makes an appearance looking very dapper wearing a suit, serving Dua a cocktail. Watch the music video below.
In the behind the scenes video Calvin can be heard explaining how the collaboration came about. He says, "I first met Dua maybe two years ago, I think she had just put out 'Be The One'. Two years later I had this 'kinda' half finished song, and I thought it would be perfect for her."
And he wasn't wrong! The song was an immediate hit with fans going to number 1 in the UK and in many other countries. Also in the behind the scenes video Calvin can be heard joking about their puppets saying they are very "unconventional", if you watch the video you'll see what he means!
