OK so I've fallen in love again...

This reminds me so much of Kelis' ACAPELLA and Beyonce's WHO RUN THE WORLD And watching the 'making of' and the 'behind the scenes' is really making me miss shooting a music video.... Come one Melissa, get your arse in gear - this year calls for my new album and some hot new videos! Without a doubt my favourite two videos by Rihanna to date, EVER, are this one and WE FOUND LOVE. They are both incredibly emotive and represent perfect story-telling with superb editing, choreography and styling.

Beyonce - Run The World (Girls)

Talent borrows, Genius Steals - Oscar Wilde (part 2)

So around May last year I blogged about the similarities in make-up concept between a shoot I did, with Kelis' make-up in her video for 'Acapella'.

Well I just watched Katy Perry's video for her latest single 'E.T.' and thought the same thing (although Katy's is pretty extreme especially with the lenses, what with her being an extra-terrestrial...)

Honestly, I'm quite a fan of Katy but I really don't think much of her latest single - subject matter doesn't work, nor does the 'dark' overtone and the lyrics are too cheesey -

"Imma gonna disrobe you, then probe you" - are you serious Kanye??

As for video ... it just doesn't work when someone has drop dead gorgeous as Katy, 'uglifies' herself. Big no-no for me.

Anyway, thought I'd just share my thoughts afterall isn't that what blogging's for
