'Dark Horse' Music Video by Katy Perry featuring Juicy J
It's no secret that the PRISM era hasn't been a favorite of mine, and Katy just hasn't been winning me over recently. However, her new single 'Dark Horse' is a standout track on the album and one that I think is one of her best songs ever. Today we've finally gotten the video and I'd actually wager to say that this is her best video to date. The video is an epic caricature extravaganza done in true Katy fashion with lots of bright colors and humorous moments. It takes place in Memphis, Egypt where Katy is a Cleopatra type character with a penchant for magic. She dons an array of Egyptian apparel, bizarrely including a grill, and she looks flaw-free. It's Gaga-level couture and Katy pulls it off effortlessly. The CGI is spot on and doesn't make the video feel cheap which 'Roar' suffered from. It's a lot of fun with some epic moments of Katy harnessing her power in the most girly way possible. I'm a fan of this one, and hopefully when 'Walking On Air' becomes a single we'll get an equally amazing video.
