In March, we saw some sneak peeks of Jennifer Lopez shooting the video for Wisin & Yandel‘s single “Follow the Leader”—which is directed by her boyfriend Casper Smart—in Mexico, and now we get to see how it all came together.
We are so honored and excited to share the premiere of Jack’s Mannequin’s new music video for the single, “Release Me”. We also have special message from Andrew McMahon about the song and what inspired the video. Andrew has always been one of our favorite guys to chat with, and we are digging the video. Check it out!
“For me the song “Release Me” is about that moment when you realize you’ve pushed or been pushed too hard. The video became a bit of a satire on the hamster wheel effect of releasing music under the influence of major corporations.”
Justin Bieber has been making do with a lookalike Selena Gomez on the set of his latest video in LA, but today he was reunited with the real thing… and he couldn’t have been happier.
The 18-year-old has been seen smooching a brunette who looks almost identical to the Disney star for the short film which accompanies his new single, Boyfriend.
She’s clearly supposed to represent the Canadian superstar’s 20-year-old partner, thankfully the youngsters are wise enough not to to follow J-Lo down the path of flaunting real-life relationships in music videos.

However, Bieber couldn’t keep his hands off his the genuine article when she joined him on set today.
In the new song, the teenager sings about wanting to be the perfect boyfriend, if the girl he has feelings for will just give him a chance.
He’s clearly that passionate about fellow performer Gomez, hence the model chosen for the shoot being in her image.
That's my girl! Justin can't take his eyes off the genuine article after days of working with a doppelganger

Watch the incredible video of legendary rapper Tupac perform with Snoop Dogg more than 15 years after his death
Return: Fans of the rapper were overwhelmed by the hologram
Legendary rapper Tupac Shakur was brought back to life with a giant hologram at Coachella.
The deceased hip-hop star performed a song by himself before collaborating with Snoop Dogg, who was headlining the massive California festival.
Together they sang Come With Me, Gangsta Party and Hail Mary – a song that Tupac has never performed live and was released after his death more than 15 years ago.
Tupac, who was shot dead in Las Vegas in 1996, looked remarkably lifelike.
Conspiracy: Some people believe that Tupac is still alive
Bare-chested and wearing a pair of jeans that looked circa 1995, the famous ‘Thug Life’ tattoo was seen clearly across his front.
The high-tech 3D image of the late star, which cost a reported $10 million, was used by Mariah Carey to perform five simultaneous concerts across Europe last year.
Unveiled: Tupac performs Hail Mary for the first time
The hologram left everyone in disbelief with Katy Perry, who is at the festival, posting on Twitter: “I think I might have cried when I saw Tupac.”
And the late rapper was one of many special guests who joined Snoop on stage.
Dr Dre and Eminem turned up to perform Forgot About Dre, I Need a Doctor and Till I Collapse.
Final goodbye? This could be the last time we see Tupac perform
Paul McCartney not only writes great tunes and plays a mean bass (duh!), but the ex-Beatle also directs cool videos starring A-Listers in his spare time.
Case in point: Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp join in on Paul’s latest, “My Valentine.” Both actors “sing” the soulful lyrics in sign language, while Depp takes it to the next level with a tasty little acoustic guitar solo. Nice!
And that’s not all. A who’s who of movies, music and television showed up Friday night at Paul’s request (how could they not?) to check out the acclaimed acting duo’s star turns.
Picks include ‘Ball and Biscuit,’ ‘Seven Nation Army,’ ‘Hotel Yorba’ and more

10. ‘The Hardest Button to Button’
This single from Elephant is one of White’s most dynamic numbers, alternating between a tense instrumental section held down by Meg White’s steady, minimal beat and a series of increasingly unhinged verses.
