Celebrating the female gaze

[firecat]

Or perhaps I should say "the gaze of people who find a variety of men wiggling in tiny briefs attractive."

Wikipedia sez "LMFAO is an American electronic dance music duo consisting of Redfoo and SkyBlu. The duo are both descendants of Motown Records founder Berry Gordy, Jr."

Yes, it's almost two years old, but I just heard it. At least with Gangnam Style I was a little faster on the uptake. (The songs bear some similarity.)

If you are interested in "female gaze" videos (I agree the term isn't quite right), I can offer better examples. I do enjoy this video but I think it's more about comedy and less about actual sexiness? YMMV.

Oh, I agree it's comedy. And I would love better examples.

Here is the first one that comes to mine, a Die Hard fanvid. I don't know if you are fanvid-familiar. I generally download them and watch them with VLC.

trelkez: Radar, Die Hard. Enemies slash, as Bruce Willis stalks Alan Rickman.

There is a fanvid to the LMFAO song, to the movie Zoolander, which is also available for viewing on YouTube:

Thanks! OMG, Willis and Rickman both look so young in that. (It's one of my favorite movies.) The Zoolander fanvid is pretty funny.

I asked for a couple of recs on Twitter and I got:

greensilver: Take It Off, multifandom.

serrico: Pornstar Dancing. Multifandom.

Hmm...they have potential, but they're a bit tame. :)

Also Luminosity's "Vogue", a 300 vid, which is an excellent critique of the movie. It can be found on YouTube and several other places. This link at NY Mag autoplays:

Brilliant! I wish the movie had been even one tenth as good.

Ha, my boyfriend showed me Sexy And I Know It.

And now I think maybe I should watch Zoolander.
