Keri Hilson must be in heat
How about a little slutty music video action?
I think I've finally deduced why Keri Hilson hasn't made it to official A-List status yet. It's because she doesn't know her own identity!
Every video she changes her persona, sometimes even within the same video, and it's all very disconnected and jarring.
And now, all of her personalities seem to be competing for attention in her latest video "The Way You Love Me".
She's channelling the swagger of Beyoncé, the edginess of Rihanna, the epic video of Lady Gaga and the nastiness of Ke$ha (yes, Keri is singing "Fuck me" in the chorus and bragging about her pussy).
Problem is, all the parts don't mesh well together and it all falls flat on it's face. The acting interludes (featuring Jojo and Faith Evans - are they really that hard up for cash?) are painful. The plot is pointless. Keri grinding on the bank vault is kinda gross. And it's all just way too desperate for attention.
Oh, Keri, I had such high hopes for you when you first came out. Now, you're nothing more than a center-stage video ho.
