Lady Gaga released this preview called “Marry the Night: The Prelude Pathétique” in anticipation of the full vid, which promises to be her longest one yet. The thing’s shot in a mental institution and it features affected narration from Gaga of images of her being wheeled around on a gurney. Fun stuff! More »
Jihae is a model-turned-singer whose video for “The Model” features our favorite petulant woman-child Paz de la Huerta as the titular character. The tune’s a cover of a Kraftwork song, which means it’s moody enough for Paz to walk around doing her signature pouty thing. More »
Beyonce‘s back with her third music video in as many weeks for her song “Party” — and it looks like she’s tapped into her inner trailer trash persona. That means: blonde hair, plastic pool furniture, fur coats, and, um, trailers. The song and video feature up-and-coming rapper J. Cole. More »
Just a week after she premiered the video for Countdown, Beyonce‘s back with this 80s-inspired Love on Top vid. If you remember back to the VMAs, this is the song Beyonce performed to debut her maybe-fake pregnancy. More »
Beyonce is so pretty and cool and sexy, you guys! Am I telling you something you didn’t already know? Her hotly anticipated video for “Countdown” is finally available for our hungry eyes to take in and it doesn’t disappoint. More »
Would you tell Rihanna to put on a shirt if you saw her strip down? If you’re literally any person in the world besides Alderman Alan Graham, the answer is probably no. Alan, who had given Rihanna and her crew permission to film a music video in his Bangor, Ireland corn fields, was fetching his tractor when he spotted Rihanna all stripped down to her underthings. Alan requested that the crew stop filming and they obliged. More »
Does he think all that beautiful 19th century stonework will hide his actions from the eyes of God? Because it hides nothing, Joe Jonas. More »
Wild Flag‘s an awesome rock ‘n’ roll supergroup I saw open for Superchunk and Bright Eyes a few months ago. Featuring lady luminaries Carrie Brownstein (Portlandia‘s own), Janet Weiss, Mary Timony and Rebecca Cole, the band was destined to be great and so far they’ve yet to disappoint. More »
In a new music video from a rock band called Miggs, Lindsay Lohan plays herself… and also a social activist graffiti artist who sneaks away in the night to spray paint important messages on the wall. She does this in bright red lipstick, though-high heeled boots and a designer cape thing! More »
Bon Iver is music for quiet gray days, and the video for their song “Holocene” is basically just some shots of a quiet gray day. It’s lovely, though, and it definitely put me in the mood to make my way back home, crawl under the covers, and hide out from the world for a little bit. More »
Maroon 5 just released their new video for the song “Moves Like Jagger,” which has Adam Levine comparing himself to none other than the legendary Mick himself — and it’s enough to make a person gather up all their records and throw them in a bonfire while “Rocks Off” plays from a boombox at full volume. Understandably upset, I enlisted the Gchat account of Kasey Anderson, a terrific musician in his own right, to help me make sense of the video. I’m not sure either of us managed to do that. More »
The video for Countess LuAnn DeLesseps‘ song “Chic, C’est La Vie” (or as we like to call it, “French words!”) cannot be a real thing. It simply cannot be so. No way a gown human person would willingly allow this to happen. Could you imagine being one of LuAnn’s children? Our mom recently @ replied our boyfriend on Twitter and it was utterly mortifying, so we’re pretty sure that if she ever made anything like this video, we would up and die of shame. More »
Did Courtney Love marry a zombie? No. Well, maybe at some other point, but this is a still from a music video shoot. It sort of terrifies us, but maybe that’s because we hate having to see feet, in general. More »
The video for “electro hop” group Far East Movement‘s “So What” features hundred dollar bills, models, and a vat filled with what appears to be Pepto Bismol. The Pepto ends up slathered on one of the model’s bikini-covered breasts in the most bizarre play at fetish appeal we’ve seen in a while. “Mmm, baby, lemme lick that off you, my heartburn is killing me. More »
It might be a little too early in the day for this video, but we’re posting it anyway. In her music video for “Rabiosa” (which is Spanish for “rabid”), Shakira debuts a brunette look and hits the stripper pole. Also involved are a hot male model and some plastic balls. Enjoy. More »
Shia LaBeouf put on his director’s hat (it’s a fedora) to make a video for Kid Cudi’s song “Marijuana.” It’s a pretty student filmy effort — Shia follows Kid Cudi around Amsterdam with a super 8 camera (or is that a post-production filter?), where the artist mostly just hangs out and smokes weed. Good song, though. More »
Kreayshawn is a rapper and a cinematographer, she is not down with basic ass bitches. Her new video “Gucci Gucci” is the latest so-bad-it’s-good (but also, this is kind of legit good) sensation to sweep the web. Anyone got any meme suggestions for this enthusiastic young lady? More »
Taylor Swift‘s video, for her latest twangy tune “Mean,” plays like the promo reel for a season of Glee: fashion-obsessed gay kid’s bullied by the jocks, smart girl has to save her pennies for college, some mean jerk told Taylor she can’t sing. For all of them, it totally gets better. So who’s this one about, John Mayer or Simon Cowell? More »
