Cody Simpson goes exploring with his ukulele in the new music video for “Summertime Of Our Lives” music video.
Directed by The Young Astronauts, Cody goes walking through the forest, along the beach and finally sails out to the sea. We just hope he doesn’t go too far because it’s hard not to fall for Cody as he sings “I’m still in love with you” to the camera. Swoon. Then there’s that catchy whistle that we feel everyone will be humming randomly throughout the day. It’s just the perfect summer time song.
Sigh. Cody just gets us.

Roc Royal, Ray Ray, Prodigy, and Princeton of Mindless Behavior are looking retro-cool in their new music video for “Used To Be.”
Decked out in badass sunglasses with old school microphones in hand, Mindless Behavior are smooth and sultry as they croon R&B sweet-nothings into our ears. We have to wonder, though, how any girl could leave any band member when they can serenade them like that.
“Used To Be” is off of their latest album, All Around The World. Mindless Behavior is currently on their All Around The World tour.
ICYMI: Mindless Behavior’s Ray Ray talk collaborations, summer tours and Justin Bieber with ANDPOP. Read that interview HERE.
Big Time Rush have a brand spanking fun new music video for their single, “Confetti Falling”!
Big Time Rush’s Logan Henderson, Kendall Schmidt, James Maslow, and Carlos Pena first performed the single in the episode “Big Time Cameo” of their show Big Time Rush. SPOILER ALERT: the music videos features clips of the episode so if you haven’t seen it, be warned!
Big Time Rush’s upcoming album 24/Seven is set to drop June 11th and is currently available for pre-order on iTunes.
Everyone’s favourite sassy girl now has a music video.
In her song, “Girls Just Gotta Have Fun”, Sophia Grace shows off her rapping and singing chops while donning some really rad sunglasses and taking a ride in a mini pink car.
But if you’re wondering where Rosie is, don’t fret. The blonde princess makes a cameo offering fashion advice to her pal.
While I often feel like these two ladies are overexposed, you can’t deny the fact that this is a cute video. Keep on doing your thang, ladies!
After teasing us with a clip yesterday, X-Factor alum Emblem3 have released the music video for their first single, “Chloe (You’re The One I Want).”
The video follows girls who are seen as “outsiders” passing around a “I’m a Chloe” button to each other, befriending each other along the way. The buttons also give the girls exclusive access to Emblem3′s show, as the more popular girls get left behind at the door. Oooh, burn!
I must admit, though, that I’d rather be friends with the outsiders. Remember Mean Girls? Janice Ian was the shit. Why wouldn’t you want to be friends with her?

Rapper Lil Dicky loves being a guy, and he loves being white. In fact, he loves it so much he decided torap about it in his new single “White Dude.”
The lyrics are blatantly offensive and politically incorrect and the video itself appears to be a parody, but Lil Dicky does raise some valid points about racism, sexism and stereotypes in our society. He touches on all the obvious points: racial profiling by police, gender equality in relationships, as well as the N-word, and points out some advantages of being a white dude that had never occurred to me before watching.
If his intention was to get people talking, then he has definitely succeeded. The topic is a hard one to approach, and what better medium to open up the floor than rap, where it’s generally accepted to be blunt and express things that a lot of people don’t want to hear. While I do think some things could have been done more tastefully, I commend Lil Dicky for taking a risk and approaching a topic others might shy away from.
The question is, did he go too far? Watch the video and decide for yourself.
While Taylor Swift’s “22″ has been out for a while now, late night host Conan O’Brien has uploaded his own video response to the fun music video.
O’Brien tears down the rose-coloured glasses and tells everyone what it’s really like to be 22. Spoiler alert: it doesn’t include a rad apartment but it does involve a lot of ramen noodles. A lot. To be honest, O’Brien’s description of what it’s like to be a young adult sounds more realistic than Taylor Swift’s. Then again, she’s a 23-year-old wunderkid who has lots of money to help make her 20s a little easier thanks to her a multi-platinum, award-winning records.
Watch O’Brien’s response and tweet us @ANDPOP what you think about what he had to say.
When these two collaborate it’s pretty much guaranteed they’ll have you on your feet and On the Floor, their new hit Live It Up is no exception!!
Jennifer Lopez looks basically the same as she does in all her videos: impossibly bangin’ body, a behind that can only be described as a gift to mankind from the gods, and a better complexion than most twenty-year-olds I know. Pitbull makes a surprising, however brief, change to his usual appearance when he goes sunglass-free in the opening sequence, and I have to say, the eyes are a lot less creepy than I would have expected.
Needless to say, the video is exactly what you’d expect to see from these two. Hot girls, skimpy outfits, amazing dancing, and lots of shots of the beach. It may not be the most original and exciting video out there today, but it’s right on point with what fans of the two want. It’s like they say: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
Kanye West may be a bit of a controversial figure in pop culture. But while he’s known for interrupting Taylor Swift at the VMAs to his very public relationship with Kim Kardashian, one really can’t deny this man’s creativity and talent .
The rapper took an innovative turn last night (May 17) to show off his new video “New Slaves” in 66 different buildings around the world.
Announcing the move on Twitter, he wrote, “NEW SONG AND VISUAL FROM MY NEW ALBUM BEING PROJECTED TONIGHT ACROSS THE GLOBE ON 66 BUILDINGS, LOCATIONS @ http://KANYEWEST.COM.”
On the site, there was an interactive map listing the cities, times and specific locations the video would premiere. These places included major cities like Toronto, Paris, New York City, London and Sydney.
Too sick. I wish I was there to witness this in my home city of TORONTO!!!
From the minute the video starts, Olly has us swooning as he slowly walks up to the camera, guitar in hand and begins singing his latest single “Dear Darlin’.” Olly, why you gotta tease us like that?
In this behind the scenes video, Olly gives fans a look into his latest music video. We see a lot of footage of the Brit doing his best brooding look for the cameras and punching walls as he goes through a bit of a tiff with his love interest. He also offers some insight into the meaning of the song and how it’s all about sending letters to someone you miss and want back in your life. He describes the video as “sad, lonely and dark.” Aw, Olly! If you’re sad, we are more than happy to offer you a big old hug.
The video looks amazing and I know I speak for the entire #MURSARMY when I say that we can’t wait to see the video in its entirety.
Remember when ANDPOP got the chance to hang out with Olly Murs? You can watch that magical time in its entirety HERE.
Selena Gomez is shedding her Disney Channel look in her latest music video for “Come And Get It.”
After releasing some teasers, the video is finally out and is completely different from Selena’s older stuff. The video shows off Selena’s sultry side as she’s seen dancing by fire, swimming in the ocean and in the arms of a hunky guy. Hopefully Justin doesn’t get too jealous now that the two are back together. The video is amazing and fits the Bollywood-inspired sound of the song album perfectly.
Things are going great for 20 year old Selena Gomez. Not only has she recently fangirled over meeting Brad Pitt and seem to be rekindling her romance with Justin Bieber, Selena also has the release of her new music video for “Come and Get It” to look forward to.
In this trailer, fans get a glimpse of what they can expect in the upcoming music video. Showing off her seductive side, Selena is seen belly dancing in fields as well as swimming. Fans will have to be patient to view the video in its entirety. According to her Twitter account though, it should be out soon!
Demi Lovato has become a huge inspiration for young girls, and her new album, DEMI, is chock full of songs that many girls can relate to.
Her latest hit, “Heart Attack” is all about being afraid of falling in love but having the courage to open yourself up to a new relationship. In this behind the scenes footage, Demi shares what the video means to her and exactly what all that black paint symbolizes.
Miguel and Kendrick Lamar seem to be taking over the hip hop/R&B charts with their old-school sounds.
But when the two artists decide to team up, I swear, magic HAPPENS.
Directed by Constellation Jones (who also directed Miguel’s video for ‘Adorn’), Miguel’s ‘How Many Drinks’ video features no complicated special effects, bad acting or any drama whatsoever. Rather, it’s just a simple video featuring a dimly-lit soundstage with Miguel wearing a stylish shirt with squares and Kendrick Lamar in a delightfully crazy black and white get-up.
The reason I love these two artists is because they keep it simple by letting the music do all the talking.
After countless teasers and anticipation, Demi Lovato finally released her video for “Heart Attack” last night. Although it’s a bit different than we expected, it’s still nonetheless awesome. It kind of reminds us of her past video “Remember December,” but darker and much more mature. Staying on trend with a black and white theme, her attitude in it is as fierce as the song itself. She definitely made it to match the tone of the song.

Work it, girl!
There’s one thing I’m wondering though: how long did it take to remove the black paint off her arms? That is a serious clean up job.
Paramore has just released the music video for “Still Into You,” and it’s just as amazing as their previous hits.
For a song thats about someone still being into their ex, this music video is very pink and peppy. Don’t get me wrong, peppy music videos are always more enjoyable to watch than angst filled music videos about heartbreak. Someone needs to tell Hayley Williams to stop being so perfect, and to leave some for the rest of us.
The lead singer tweeted about the single and it’s position on iTunes charts.
Dear @jtimberlake I’m sorry our album had to bump you down to #2 for a bit. You are still #1 in my heart. Thx for sharing the top spot. YAY!
— Hayley from Paramore (@yelyahwilliams) April 9, 2013
I woke up and thought it was all going to be a dream but we have the #1 album on @itunesmusic in a ton of countries & I am fully awake!!

“Still Into You” is the second single from their self-titled album.
Jonas Brothers fans rejoice! The wait is finally over. Over the course of the week, the boys have been releasing clips and stills counting down to their new music video, “Pom Poms.” Let me tell you – it doesn’t disappoint!
Pom Poms has a new type of sound that fit into their voice. (Let’s get real – they can sing a menu and it will still be a hit because they’re that awesome) It’s no “Lovebug” or “Paranoid,” which have more of a rock feel, but nonetheless very catchy. Plus, Nick Jonas dances for a bit in the music video.

Okay, he’s no professional dancer but we can’t help to want to cuddle with him after seeing him dance like that!
If there’s one thing I love about Simple Plan (amongst countless others reasons), it’s how much they give to their fans and make their music so much about them. None hold truer to this statement than their new song, “This Song Saved My Life.”
Using lyrics sent in by the SP Family, this is a song literally for the fans and by the fans, and the video is no different. Filled with signs and meet and greet moments, this video caused major chills for me while watching it.
With his musical comeback in full swing, Justin Timberlake released the music video for “Mirrors,” the second single off of his The 20/20 Experience album, on Tuesday.
Timberlake appropriately dedicates the video to his grandparents William and Sadie as the video depicts their 63-year-old relationship with each other. The video makes us a little teary eyed as we watch their relationship evolve from their first meeting in the fifties to the present day, where video Sadie is recounting their years together without William. Timberlake’s real grandfather passed away last year.
How fitting is this tale of love considering Timberlake wants his audience to fall in love, just as he did with now-wife Jessica Biel, with his new record.

Swifties, rejoice! Taylor Swift has finally released her video for “22!”
Co-starring her real life BBFs, the video follows Swift as she and her friends have some fun times jumping on trampolines, sitting on the beach and hanging out by the poolside. Okay, this isn’t my “22″ but nice to know this how she enjoyed her own 22nd year of life.
