After multiple video teasers, Justin Bieber FINALLY premiered the music video for his new single “Boyfriend” today. I personally could not wait because I love this song and from what I saw in the teasers… he was bringing the best swag an 18-year-old white boy could. Well..turns out all the video teasers we saw had NOTHING to do with the new music video because at the last minute Bieber decided to go a different direction and hire a whole different director and make a new music video. So it’s sort of a music video within a music video. ha
The video is very “NSYNC circa 2001″ whenthey came out with their music video for “Girlfriend”. The cars… the parking lot…the cute girls… I mean…almost the exact same video. I would have much preferred to see the original concept. Seemed way more interesting. But Bieber does bring his A-game to the video and has some perfect moments that would make any girl swoon. Parts I loved: Bieber’s dance moves. Parts I hated: the lead girl in the video who has absolutely zero chemistry with Bieber and oozes awkwardness in every shot she’s in. Uggg. Bad casting choice.
