Review: Katy Perry - Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.) - The Video


Katy Perry just unveiled her latest video for her 4 Single off her 2nd Studio album, Teenage Dream. 

But I have to say, Katy still looks beautiful with her nerdy ensemble. Ehem.  In this video, Katy Perry isn't herself. She's Kathy Beth Terry. Her 8th-Grade alter ego. It's kind of unhappy with that because she made a Facebook page for this non existent girl, that posts videos that say "No One Likes Me. :(".. All I can say is.. uh huh. Yeah. Cool Story Bro. 

She's also following the footsteps of Nicki Minaj and Lady Gaga in alter egos. Nicki with Roman, Barbie, Martha, and Rrrrrrosa; and Gaga with her very hidden male alter ego, Jo Calderone. 

Enough with alter egos! Review + Video after the jump!



Synopsis: 

The music video starts off with a retro introduction with a paper boy biking through a neighborhood.  The camera stops at a yellow house. Kathy Beth comes to view with her legs spread apart, waking up frantically and panning her surroundings. There are people wasted and colored all around her, It's dirty, and there's this man wasted beside her, topless. 

Darren Criss from Glee peeps through the room and talks to Kathy, thanking her for "the best night ever". Kathy is totally confused and unaware of the events from the previous night. Kathy looks scared and distressed as Darren keeps on going. As Darren finishes talking, Kathy smiles and waves her fist in the air in a comical fashion. The music video begins.

In the first verse, Kathy sings about what she sees in her room. She goes online and sees the photos posted online of the party last Friday night. Wink Wink. 

As the song progresses, she goes into Rebecca Black's party and she gets a total makeover! Kevin McHale plays as her fellow nerd who desperately wants Kathy. Kenny G and Debbie Gibson make appearances in this video too, and some more people but I don't give a shit about them. 

OVERALL RATING: 4.5 Stars
