Lara Stone captains a spaceship to Earth in Hot Chip's music video for the song "Night & Day."
Peter Serafinowicz directed the video, in which a cult led by British actor Terence Stamp dances to summon two beings from outer space — played admirably by Stone and musician Reggie Watts. When Stone and Watts arrive, their ships combine to form a yin and yang symbol — which makes the cult happy until things start to go awry. Take a look at the video below.
Singer Jean-Roch asked Karl Lagerfeld to play a heavenly father in his new music video for "Saint-Tropez."
At the very beginning of the clip, Roch approaches Lagerfeld — clad in all white, floating on a cloud — and asks him if he's in paradise. "You were never told that Saint-Tropez is paradise?" Karl asks in response. Roch and rapper Snoop Dogg then proceed to explain why the tropical island is heaven on earth. Take a look at the video below.
Justin Bieber's been spreading holiday cheer with his new single "Mistletoe," but he's not sticking strictly to original songs. Behold: his duet with Mariah Carey on her Christmas classic "All I Want For Christmas Is You," complete with a video that's more or less a glorified ad for Macy's. Mariah's clearly seizing the opportunity to show off her post-baby bod in a skimpy Santa suit, while Bieber loads a cart full of goodies and ogles Carey's stems. As much as I love this song, something about seeing Mariah objectified by Bieber gives me the creeps. Check out the video and tell me what you think!
If we had tried to guess what Harry Potter star Rupert Grint (better known as Ron Weasley) would have been up to after the film series ended this Summer, modeling with costar Tom Felton and then starring in a cheesy music video wouldn't have been it. But here we are!
In Ed Sheeran's latest music video for "Lego House," Rupert lip syncs the angsty song while doing all sorts of crazy and silly things like talking to dolls and breaking apart a house made out of Legos, but I think the ridiculousness is the point? Either way, since he's adorable and the song has a '90s boy band sound to it, we'll add this to the list of things we love about Rupert Grint! Watch the video above, and don't be ashamed if you get the song stuck in your head . . .
Rihanna and her onscreen boyfriend certainly know how to have a good time in the "We Found Love" video. The party-hardy pair take handfuls of pills, party at an outdoor rave, tattoo one another with Sharpies, and even commit petty crimes — not to mention getting it on all over the place. It's not all a blast, though, as the couple's partying ways eventually catch up with them, causing them to argue in a hungover haze that leaves the songstress curled up in the fetal position. The song's definitely catchy, so watch the video now.
The videos from Britney Spears's Femme Fatale album have been an entertaining bunch, and the latest, for "Criminal," may be the most entertaining. Britney gets to flex her acting muscle in the short film-style music video, with an intro that features the singer at a posh London party, fighting with a slappy British boyfriend, until a hot stranger (her real-life boyfriend Jason Trawick) comes to her rescue. They take off to the flute-laden tune of "Criminal," and that appears to be exactly what Britney's new squeeze is. They become a Bonnie and Clyde-esque pair, robbing stores and being chased by police. But they have lots of sexy downtime — their gun-toting shenanigans are interspersed with lots of nude, arty love scenes (in the shower, up against the wall . . . you get the point). Watch now.
Kristen Stewart is making her music video debut, playing the muse to Marcus Foster in his video for "I Was Broken." Admittedly, it's not the most thrilling video we've ever seen — it's mostly close-ups on the crooner's face as he belts out his tune — but Stewart does a fine job of looking pretty, despondent, and wind-blown. Watch!
Before Lady Gaga dropped her new music video for "Yoü and I" today, she tweeted, "Beware of strange oddities. The more he tries to fix me, the more magical I become." Strange, indeed. Between two of her alter egos making appearances in the video — Jo Calderone, an Italian male auto mechanic, and Yuyi the mermaid — I'm just waiting for Lady Gaga: The Movie, starring Lady Gaga in all the roles. Besides the obvious question of how does making out with yourself work (Lady G has a pretty steamy scene with "Jo"), after watching the video I'm left wondering how mermaid sex is possible . . . any ideas?
Watch the video for yourself, and let me know if you have any answers.
The music video for Best Coast's "Our Deal" got the Hollywood treatment in the form of celebrity director, Drew Barrymore, and a cast that includes Chloe Moretz (looking very grown-up), Donald Glover, Teen Wolf's Tyler Posey, Alia Shawkat, and Miranda Cosgrove. The vibe of the video is retro '50s, with Moretz and Posey playing members of a rival gang who fall in love. The song is mournful and pretty, and the video's like a hipster West Side Story. Watch it now.
I've often heard Bruno Mars's song "Lazy" on the radio, but had no idea until recently that there's an alternate video for the song starring Leonard Nimoy. The original Spock seems to be a good sport about the whole thing — wandering around in his PJs, picking his nose, buying porn mags, and flipping the bird — all while taking time off from his real-life retirement to entertain geeks everywhere. It's pretty fantastic and a nice pick-me-up for your Wednesday. Check it out below!
