Fans still have questions about ECÂF after the release of Ruel's new single & MV - "Face To Face"


(Updated September 10) - Ruel has dropped the Behind The Scenes video for "Face To Face." On Sept. 10, he revealed that the actress portraying ECÂF in the music video and on Twitter, is named Tatiana. And the person who sings the vocals for her single release, "Pictures," is actually Ruel's sister Coco.

Original Post (08/11/19)...

Global teen sensation Ruel shares a social media obsession in the visual for his new single - "Face To Face." The 16-year-old singer from Australia dropped the official music video for his song on August 8th.

In the weeks leading up to the release of the "Face To Face" music video, a twitter account was created under the handle @ECAF_XXII promoting a singer named ECÂF ((Face backwards) who may or may not be real), with a debut single titled "Pictures," who stars in Ruel's new visual.

Currently Ruel doesn't follow anyone on Twitter, but at one time he was tweeting to that account, as if there was a relationship. Instead, it seems the tweets were part of the promotion for his new single. Right now there are still a lot of theories on Twitter on the identity of ECÂF (and or the actress who plays the character).

"Face To Face" is off Ruel's upcoming second EP -  "FREE TIME," dropping on September 13th, followed by a FREE TIME WORLD TOUR.
