Exclusive Black Swan Club Scene Featuring Chemical Brothers´ Song

 Black Swan is a thriller/drama film, starring the gorgeous Natalie Portman as the protagonist ballerina. Its plot revolves around a production of Swan Lake by a prestigious New York City ballet company. The production requires a ballerina to play both the innocent White Swan and the sensual Black Swan. One dancer, Nina (Portman), is a perfect fit for the White Swan, while Lily (Kunis) has a personality that matches the Black Swan. When the two compete for the parts, Nina finds a dark side of herself.

Well, today I found a video that you must watch now! The exclusive club scene of the film Black Swan, in which a song from The Chemical Brothers is being played while the party is on fire. The name of the song is "Don´t Think" and fits perfectly with these types of movies. Did you notice that Natalie Portman seems to love clubbin'? lol.

Making of Black Eyed Peas´ "The Time (Dirty Bit)" Music Video

 Futurism, technology and of course crazy music, were the most prominent elements in the Black Eyed Peas´ video "The Time (Dirty Bit)". Rich Lee, the man behind the cameras did a great job with the whole concept of the video. I love how the visual effects transform everything into tiny pixels, and the scene with the crowd of dancers looks awesome too. I have just discovered an interesting thing, which explains how this video was created, take a look and enjoy!

Proceeds from the track will be donated to The Hetrick-Martin Institute, the home of the Harvey Milk High School, in New York, and the True Colors Fundation.

Scissor Sisters- Invisible Light

 A representation of a nightmare in the new video of the Scissor Sisters, may cause you an insomnia. Nightmares can contain different kinds of situations like danger, discomfort and psychological terror. The best way to avoid nightmares is to stop eating before going to bed. I just hope you all can sleep well tonight lol. Video directed by Nicolás Mendez.

Ke$ha- We R Who We R

 An illegal rave party at an undergroud passageway seems to be cool and fun for Ke$ha and her friends. "We R Who We R" is the name of the first single taken from Ke$ha`s new EP Cannibal. Honestly, I love Ke$ha`s unique wild style, that`s a plus to her singing career. Video was filmed in downtown Los Angeles and directed by Hype Williams.
