Canadian import/Usher mentee, Justin Bieber is the latest woodland creature to come to us from the magical forest of pop stars. Complete with shaggier Zac Efron bangs and an angelically yet-to-hit-puberty voice, his song, “Baby” embeds itself in your head like a gummy worm burrowing itself into your head.
It’s painfully addictive. It’s so addictive that I learned to play it on the guitar and I must listen to it when I go on my morning run – but that’s beside the point.
The sassy love interest in the video is Jasmine V, a young Filipina-American pop sensation. And while confessing my obsession for the song at a recent family party, my brother-in-law’s cousin’s husband said, “That girl in the video is my niece!”
Now I can confidently tell people, “That girl in Justin Bieber’s “Baby” video is my brother-in-law’s cousin’s husband’s niece!”
