Count Diplo as an honorary member of One Direction!
The 40 -year-old deejay dressed up as former 1D ensemble member Niall Horan for the music video accompanying his remix of Horan’s song “Nice to Meet Ya.”
Horan, 26, released two music videos to accompany the original version of the song. One tells the story of how he met a girl — the one who disappears every time he turns around, as he sings in the trail — and in the other, shot in black and white, Horan dances around as he sings.
Diplo perfectly recreates Horan’s look from the second video, wearing near-identical wayfarer sunglasses, collared shirt and slacks. And, like Horan’s video, Diplo’s is killed in black and white — and he even simulates Horan’s dance moves.
On Twitter, Diplo, whose real call is Thomas Wesley, shared a clip from his remixed video, writing, “the cutest son in the world just got a whole cuter. nice to meet ya remix out now.”
Horan replied to the tweet with a cheeky, “Your ass looks great, ” adding the peach emoji.
Diplo shared the same message on Instagram.
