YOUtube Darlings: Selena Gomez & The Scene

HIT THE LIGHTS! (Yep...You'll be hearing that alot in this one.)

Selena Gomez is the 19-year-old, Disney-star-turned-singer from the Emmy Award winning show, Wizards of Waverly Place. She has since expanded into movie roles, such as her part in Ramona and Beezus and Another Cinderella Story, and started a pop band called Selena Gomez & the Scene. Her new single, "Hit the Lights", is this weeks TOP favorited music video on Youtube.

The music video opens with a close up of the singer’s face, a few shots of people on a road trip, and the outdoors. Suddenly, Selena and a gang of dancers are running and playing around a farm for fun… Bunch o’ hooligans. The music picks up and there are people doing aerials out of cornfields and handstands on giant pumpkins. Strange? Yeah. The video then jumps to a club scene, where Gomez is dancing and rockin’ out to the chorus. More dancing, a lot of flashing lights, and suddenly you have the singer in a room with a heck of a lot of pink balloons and wearing hipster sunglasses. This sort or strange combo of quirky behavior and odd settings continue throughout the video. Frankly, it seems like someone cut and paste several different music videos together with the exceptions that Gomez is continuously posturing and lip-syncing to the song throughout the whole thing and there’s constant, shaky camerawork.

Strange. Random. And Quirky. Check. If you're a fan of all three, you've come to the right place.
