Don't you just hate it when you like a song...and have high hopes for the video and when it comes along you are utterly disappointed? This is the case with Drake's new video...i said before i had fallen in love with the song but i have just watched the video and it feels like a chunk of my heart has been ripped off. OK i know its a bit deep but hey when you're rinsing out a song over and over, think damn this is my ringtone! This is my ringtone! You're gonna expect high quality visuals. And what disappoints me even more is that i have heard that it is a video collab with none other than Kanye West! I have real love for KW, but this video has shocked me and i refuse to believe that he has had anything to do with it.
I mean c'mon this is a song that girls and women have fallen in love with. Closing their eyes and saying this is my song! How the hell can you throw a song that means so much to so many females and then show them in misogynous ways in the video. Wow i really love to watch a video where it opens with women with large breast swinging in slow motion... and when i close my eyes and visualise this song i see women covered with sweat patches and booty shots...Great stuff! Oh how that makes me just wanna run down to HMV and buy the CD. Gosh there are so much boob shots, just breasts bouncing everywhere it makes me so mad, i thought we were in a postmodern age where visuals in music videos were becoming more creative and unique. I guess i was wrong and the power of the male gaze lives on. The shot of all the women running up the stairs...bounce...bounce...bounce...i mean was that really necessary. The only thing that excited me about this video was seeing sexy Fab's cameo (oh and Trey Songz and others were in it too!). It is so cheesy.... corny... mate I'm running out of words...if i had to give this video a rating i would have to give it 0/5 no lies I'm actually disgusted, i mean this is why i got 'B' on my dissertation coz the way women are treated in music videos is disgusting.
My overall feelings towards the video= very very poor
However i still like the song and every time i listen to it, in my head my own video will play rather than that peice of ****!

Jeremih Birthday Sex Video
So Jeremih's highly anticipated video is out:
So what's my verdict, i find it quite boring. It's one of them bait RnB videos, tall slim model draped sexually around the artist...blah blah blah... so pasé...I'm feeling the song don't get me wrong, but i just feel that 3:54 minutes of my life have been taken away from me, into something which i can plainly say and repeat again... a world of sexual boredom. This is a post-modern age try doing something more risque...something that will keep me locked on...the only reason why i kept watching is as i said before i actually really like the song...so my final verdict on the video is a wet 1/5 sorry Jeremih work harder next time...lol

Splitsville
OMG! So I'm three quarters through watching Katie and Peter: Stateside on ITV2 when i find out that they are separating. OMG! I hope this is not true, i always had high hopes for them. They were such a cute lil celebrity family; i really hoped that they would not fall trap of the curse of the celebrity marriage. If it is true it's such a shame...coz i really hate it when i hear that married people have split up...except if there is a good reason such as infidelity...i was really rooting for Jessica and Nick...
