Just in case you were still under the impression that Matt Healy fronts a boy band — I blame the haircut — this video positions him and The 1975 in rebel territory. Drugs, sex, violence. And a Bonnie & Clyde love/crime story that ends with a bang.
Usually all the star power in a movie video is via the film footage. Not the case here, as Alicia Keys, Kendrick Lamar, Pharrell Williams and even composer Hans Zimmer all show up to electrify NYC just as much as what we see in the Spider-Man 2 clips.

Whether you've got the hots for Kylie Minogue or a muscled-up Maserati — both is also an acceptable answer — this homage to Kenneth Anger's Kustom Kar Kommandos directed by the Special Projects division of Roman Coppolla's The Director's Bureau is for you.
After discarding some weak treatments — surprised there wasn't one with David Ortiz in it — JLo and her galpals decide to imagine a turnabout video, where they're surrounded by mancandy that's on par with the video vixens who ornament most rap videos.

The Vegas odds on any artist scoring another smash like "Blurred Lines" are probably long, but Robin Thicke is clearly a gambling man. He hedges his bets on "Feel Good" by taking that "Blurred Lines" style and giving it a showgirl and Rat Pack twist in an over-the-top production that incorporates a massive video screen.
PS: Hopefully you didn't let it all ride on a return to NSFW territory, since Thicke and crew keep things clean here.
Despite the fairy tale setting and magical mirror, memories aren't powerful enough to stop the sands of time for Canadian power couple Avril Lavigne and husband Chad Kroeger.
Bonnie McKee might sound a little Taylor Swift-ish but her attitude runs way more towards old-school P!nk.
