Lady Dynamite PV -my thoughts-

[Picaflor 7/4]

sugarbasil:

However, since everyone is so interested and since it's a really good topic, why doesn't someone just make a thread about their thoughts on the Lady Dynamite PV?

You know what? I'll do just that.

As most of you know, Lady Dynamite is a serious "love or hate" type of pv. It features ayu dancing around in a gay club (not mentioned, just assumed) having a good old time with her overly sexified and very hot (especially maro) backup dancers in bondage outfits (which btw has been done tons of times by her). Other parts are flashed through out the video such as the bathroom scene (not even 3 seconds long) and various drag queens having a good old time.

For me, this video is amazing. Instead of focusing on a sexy ayu like rule or sparkle, it pays more attention it seems to the people around her. This is not her first time shooting a pv in a club. She has also done various parts in Fly High, greatful days, 1 love, and green (more of a dinner theater but w/e) This is also by no means her first attempt at anything sexy. From her bondaged, gas masked, latex friends dancing around in Sparkle, to herself strutting around a pole as a prostitute in 1 LOVE, to her in her bare lingerie in scenes throughout Mirrorcle World; Lady Dynamite really is anything but shocking, vulgar, or taboo. Considering we do not live in a perfect world, many would agree that this video is offending, crude, stereotypical, and wrong. However, if you don't look too deep into it, it is simply ayu having a really fun time dancing around with her friends in a gay club. This is by far one of my favorite videos and I give props to ayu for acknowledging a different crowd other than those who are straight, or those who are in team ayu. >> Her backup dancers aren't even that new considering the bondage stuff has been done before in her concerts like taskinst, GAME, and my name's WOMEN.

I think if anything, it is completely ludicrous to take this pv any more seriously than you'd take any other of her videos that are meant to be fun, and care free. Although some will completely acknowledge this as one of her worst pvs of all time, I find reasons to support the reasons behind their thesis considering the whole club, bondage, sex, gayness has been done before. This time it is just brought to us all at once.

Anyone care to comment?
