Did anybody catch this? It was really short. They showed a clip of the Bria video and the 3 cd package with a shot of Prince in a red suit in the bottom corner. The video looks cool, she looks stunning, its almost sickning. I couldnt hear the song, cause Billy Bush was talking all over it but its a slow one. They said she was an Indian soul singer, I thought she was Bolivian? I couldnt find a clip online to post. Looks like he has got the hollywood engine behind this release.

What did the CD set look like?

It looks like it will be a fold out package with the same covers in the press release. Looks cool.

i know that they are showing acess hollywood on the east coast tonight at 1:35 am i'm not sure if it's the same one.

Indian soul singer? Like East Indian I'm assuming, but I thought she was of Bolivian descent.

Cool!! Maybe they will show it again!

Makes me wonder... when will that Lotus Flow3r commercial be online

Thanks for the heads up. In Houston they air a midday replay of the AH from the evening before. I'll see if it's on there.

I've just heard different stories. Yes Mani definitely looks East Indian.
But as far as Bria, not sure if she's Bolivian or East Indian. I guess we'll find out if she ever does an interview.

What does that link have to do with this thread?

2elijah said:

Im pretty sure she is Bolivian because of the 1 poem in the 21 nights book. "clothes unravel, Bolivian paper doll". I saw the clip late last night and girlfriend looks gorgeous in it. She does look like she could be Indian, Persian, Egyptian, Latina. I see how they could be confused.

American Indian, you goofs? lol

Thanks for that link. That's defintely not the CD pacakge in the clip though. It's just seperate shots of the album covers.

The mystery continues!

A poem in a book dont really mean nothing. He also wrote that the girl (assistant?) on the balcony was fine a million ways or something like that. She's pretty and all but I dont know if I would call her three fine much less million fine.

But seriously, does it matter if shes black white or gray? AS LONG AS SHE DONT BE SPEAKING LIKE FO SHO AT MY WRECKA STOW I BE WITCHOO when she look like she been a KEPT WOMAN her whole life!

NICE video

Prince is usually original when it comes to music videos, but the clip of this one for Bria looks nearly identical to Keyshia Cole's video "Heaven Sent" that was released last year (http://www.youtube.com/wa...TPrDCCJbwk), which looks just like another video by Mary J. Blige from the 90s called "Everything" (http://www.youtube.com/wa...rdOkalo-Lo).

So a beach in a video makes every video shot on the beach look the same?? Go figure. Thanks for the links though, i like the song heaven sent, Keysha cole's best song to date.

^^^Uh, yeah. Its what is called predictable and uncreative and cheap.

There are a ton of cheap videos out there that are innovative using lights, computer graphics, etc.

Usually a video done on the beach or driving is to save on costs.

Unless a gigantic 24k gold sand crab comes out of the ocean and she horseback rides into the horizon with the miles of her chiffon dress extending over the ocean, it would be safe to say this is a cheap video.

By the way its called EVERYTIME.

Aw, Dammmmn, I turned away too soon. Not in the red suit...I missed him!

That Keisha Cole video was BORING

worhol said:

Well, not only the beach set, but the singers' solitary presence, the similar flowing dresses, identical camera angles, and slow-motion style filming.

I agree with you. All videos shot in the club look exactly alike to me too.
