WATCH IT: Miami Horror "Holidays" (Krozm, dir.)

Life is a highway; I wanna ride her all night long. That's how this Miami Horror video starts out, with directors Krozm accentuating each glancing stroke, knob twiddling and insertion as they cruise along a great American stretch of asphalt. But then you notice that the man has a sort of Walrusface, like a pulsating moustache of genitalia where his mouth should be. And all of sudden everything about this romantic holiday roadtrip becomes more compelling and way, way weirder. --> watch "Holidays"

WATCH IT: Katy Perry "Firework" (Dave Meyers, dir.)

While Katy Perry's chest-sparklers get all the attention, there's another interesting angle to the video: Shot on location in Budapest, the video features Perry people a crowd of 250 fans selected from a Katy Perry/Deutsche Telekom/T-Mobile contest in which fans were asked to share inspirational stories and videos detailing what "sparked" them to achieve and/or persevere. As such, the video is dedicated to the "It Gets Better" campaign, thereby proving that Perry's pyrotechnic bosom can be a force for good.
