Mariah Carey and Miguel rummage through a bag of R&B music video cliches and pull out ‘inexplicable motorcycle ride’, ‘lingering shots of random female body parts’, ‘vintage cars that nobody’s allowed to drive’ and ‘lens flares that are meant to represent the sun and/or summer’.
They put them all together and give us the video to their recent (and quite brilliant) new collaborative single ‘#Beautiful’. And, you know what, we still think the video’s pretty great nonetheless.
