Much like the song itself, I have to admit that I love
Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" music video. As I noted on
Idolator, it feels like a cross between teen flicks such as
Dazed And Confused and our own whitewashed adolescent nostalgia. Chalk it up to director
Yoann Lemoine's use of filtered sunlight and haze.
And the party scene at the end with its flares, dancing, skateboarding, lezzing, bubblegumming and sexing is pure bliss. (As is
Josh Kloss, formerly of
The O.C., who plays Perry's love interest here.)
Bonus points to you, Katy Perry—you've
never seemed so sweet.
