I was finally able to watch Leighton Meester’s (feat. Robin Thicke) music video of the recently released “Somebody To Love”. And my oh my, I did not think I was expecting for a shocker.
Upon hearing the song, I thought that it’s good that the song has a catchy melody. Beyond that, I think it’s just repetitive and slowly becoming annoying. The first part of the lyrics was okay but all-in-all the lyrics was not so well-written as with her previous songs (“Good Girls Gone Bad” with Cobra Starship and her other leaked songs). And Leighton’s voice is just so freakishly dark it didn’t sound like her.
Now that I have found out about the video (thank you, Twitter), I immediately watched it, thankful that I can finally publish the review that I have been planning for in a long time.
The video is not as Leighton-y as I hoped for. The kissing, gripping, sexy outfits, and other sexual undertones (plus the too much make-up) did not do any good to her. Is it me or is Leighton Meester slowly turning into a Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera? Hopefully not. I can only imagine what Blair Waldorf would say if she sees this. I wonder what Sebastian Stan thinks about Leighton-gone-bad. Hmmm.
