I agree with u "Lovely #18". got the giggles @ your comment. Exactly what I was thinking. I liked the song, but the clip is hideous. Won't be buying cause the clip was so ugly and since when is making yourself as ugly as possible considered art?

I get it, but it doesn't really do it for me. Myeh… Kind of boring. I don't like being hit over the head with symbolism.

206

That is incredibly tacky…makes me fucking sick.

What it needs is some booty shakin', g-straangs, and a few bo-naked dancers in the background.

Fuck this artsy fartsy BS….

Loved the sound and the song. Interesting video — definitely "artistic geniu," but not my style. At least it's not contrived.

I met Sia personally after her show at the House of Blues in Chicago last year. I didn't notice her tooth. I DID notice her singing-the best I have ever heard live. I'm talking OMFG what an awesome talent. And to all of you questioning Sia's physical attributes? SIA IS A HOTTIE! She has a beautiful face, smiling eyes, a great figure and nice legs, and an aura of warmth and life that is beyond any of the haters here.

#213 - sorry to disappoint, but you obviously don't know her.
she aint 'trying' to be 'weird'.
this clip is exactly the kind of thing she would do any day of the week.
have you seen her 'sunday' clip?

#220 - at the moment she's taking a bit of a break to promote her new solo album, and they (z7 boys) are doing a side project of just instrumental stuff.
i'm sure they'll come back to work together before long!

that was so sick. i would have liked a warning or something before clicking the video on. really very sick, i hope kids don't try to do what they see here in the video.
-- says – reply to this

230

haha i laugh my ass off at the people who think this is talent or whatever they wanna call it. its amazing how the most idiotic and absurd things are hailed as geniusity nowadays. real music is dead. i have NO idea why you promote these ridiculous things perez. i dont get this whole being different just to be different. its just a lame effort to try stand out. and the orange hair perez, its hideous.

DISTURBING!
The Girl Your Mother Warned You About says – reply to this

The video is a bit disturbing although I like Sia that brown snaggle tooth located on her bottom jaw! MUST GO! NARLEY
BK says – reply to this

238

I wish we had anything half that different and non-corporate hit the screen here, ever.

LOVE it!
LRY77 says – reply to this

239

those of you slagging her off are obviously the type to go and buy a fucking Britney record and dance round you room into a hairbrush. And as for those of you saying this will inspire kids to put plastic bags over their heads…get a fucking grip!! Sia Rocks!…we love you

242

that snaggle tooth sure is pretty. she looks like fuckin witch hazel from the looney toons!
EUROTRASH BOY says – reply to this

243

THE COMMENTS I READ HERE SHOW THAT FEW AMERICANS HAVE TASTE. THIS SONG WILL BE A BIG HIT IN EUROPE BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT TALENTED ARTISTS ARE DISTURBING, CRAZY AND SCARING AND OFTEN GAY. ONLY THE UNDERGROUND SCENE ROCKS !!! PEREZ YOU'RE TOO MUCH EUROPEAN MINDED TO STAY IN YOUR SHITEOUS COUNTRY ! I UNDERSTAND NOW WHY ALL THE AMERICAN COMING TO EUROPE SAY HOW SHITIOUS ARE THE PEOPLE LIVING IN THE FLY-OVER : ONLY L.A, NEW YORK AND MIAMI ARE CIVILISED PLACES IN YOUR COUNTRY !

Perez,

Have you heard Sia's cover of "I Go To Sleep" by the Pretenders? Delish.

cause it sure as hell looks like it!
April says – reply to this

258

…That wasn't even close to being a good song. Sia has absolutely NO talent. This is bad to say, but the coke head Lindsay is a way better singer than that. Sia is HORRIBLE and ugly. Fix the snaggle tooth and get some face work.
Smutboi says – reply to this

259

Sia is a talented and genuinely funny person. she's not "trying to be crazy" to get attention. that's just her personality coming out in a loud and crazy way.

clearly this filmclip is a statement about TRYING to be beautiful instead of just being who you are. and in trying to become MORE beautiful, you end up just distorting who you truly are.

it should be making you think.

this video is so…messed up.
MelodySoul says – reply to this

261

Great song and I love how she isn't trying to be sexy. Finally someone showing their talent for all it's worth. She really needs to get that tooth fixed though, it is so distracting!
Kristin1287 says – reply to this

262

Interesting video…this chick needs to fix that Nanny McPhee snaggletooth though.

lol, you're all pathetic
Jennifer says – reply to this

267

Very interesting!!! wow she must have been really bored to have spent all that time bombarding her head with stupid material but I cant say much for myself wasting my time watching it
on my soapbox says – reply to this

268

its sickening to read all the comments that equate being ugly with no talent. just another twisted symptom of our self-absorbed, shallow, image-obsessed society. seems like most of us would rather have no-talent, pathetic, wacked-out hacks like brittany shake their ass and bare their tits while they lip-sync than appreciate real talent from someone who doesn't fit america's screwed up, airbrushed vision of beauty. really, our priorities are so f**ked up.
Jackee says – reply to this

269

I think this video and song rocks!
Ginny says – reply to this

270

I agree with Meep and others. Some stupid kids are going to try to do this with plastic wrap because thought it was funny, and it won't be when someone accidentally dies.

#20 - Meep says: I love Sia, but I’m really afraid that some stupid kid is going to put plastic wrap on his head and die and she’ll get sued.
Eileen says – reply to this

I think the song and the video are fabulous. I have been trying to buy them on itunes and can't find them…. HELP!!!

ugh says – reply to this

279

That girl is FUG. And I hate how she says "gewd fer you" in her song. Eww.
fuck fashion says – reply to this

280

that was probably one of the coolest music videos ever - awww poor unsuspecting viewers dont realise originality when they see it….the first thing they can say is that she's ugly..(who cares) did you notice she has a really good voice? i guess its a reflection of how most people these days are just plain ignant of everything outside the mainstream….oh well, their loss.
Ehhh says – reply to this

281

It seems like she made an attempt at being edgy like bjork and the hunter video. Problem is she's not pretty enough to pull it off. lol

Chatting With... Brooke Burke!

One of the funniest interviews we've ever done!

The Dancing With The Stars finale is upon us and we sat down with co-host Brooke Burke to talk about everything from the show to Donna Summer to... meth! Ha

We also talk about how she keeps her bangin' bikini body, how she keeps her marriage to hunkalicious hubby David Charvet hot and spicy, plus why her Wikipedia needs updating! Double ha!

Read some excerpts from our interview.... after the jump.

And watch our interview with Brooke in full (above)!

P.S. We will likely never be on Dancing With The Stars after this interview! Ha
