I Was Busy Thinking About BOYS

Charli XCX's music video "Boys" is one of my favorites because of the wide variety of men displayed and the variety in the activities that they are partaking in.

First, the color scheme of the entire music video is bubblegum pink.

The "boys" are a wide variety of men ranging from Joe Jonas to Wiz Khalifa.

The activities have a wide variety as well, some are shown having a pillow fight, others riding a motorcycle, being lavished in rose petals, eating pancakes, etc.

It does overtly sexualize and objectify men, but in some ways that women are constantly objectified for (i.e., pillow fight, washing cars)

All in all, it is an excellent music video that you should all watch.
