Olivia de Camps cala il video r’n’b sexy ed elegante in un caotico immaginario sospeso tra il surreale e il puro nonsense. In una tipica “notte da leoni” a Las Vegas, Amber Mark irrompe al matrimonio del suo ex, dove a celebrare l’unione è nientemeno che Carmen Electra, per poi essere affiancata da un Anderson .Paak gigione come poche altre volte, che sembra quasi giocare a fare il Tyler, The Creator.
«Volevamo che [il video] desse la sensazione di un delirio febbrile a Las Vegas… bizzarro, caotico, un po’ troppo luminoso, surreale e leggermente fuori di testa», ha riferito la regista. «Quando [Amber] irrompe al matrimonio del suo ex con una donna più anziana, il tutto si trasforma in una tenera satira sulla fine di un amore, su quel loop assurdo fatto di tentati di andare avanti e meravigliosi fallimenti».
Ne approfittiamo per segnalare un altro recente lavoro della de Camps, Khe Kalor per Danna, divertentissima rilettura empowering-femminista e vagamente muggia-heymanniana delle soap latinoamericane.
