<\/div>\n

Paul McCartney<\/a> and Emma Stone<\/a> play a scene out of a therapist\u2019s office in his new video for \u201cWho Cares,\u201d a song against bullying off his latest record, Egypt Station<\/a><\/em>. The onetime Beatle plays a hypnotist who attempts to help Stone with her feelings of unease using a turntable with a swirl on it and a metronome before she regresses into a surrealistic fantasy world where she\u2019s a clown-like magician\u2019s assistant and he sings to her. In a number of vignettes, she\u2019s the target of swords, knives and suffocating crowds, as Macca makes her feel better by singing, \u201cWho cares? I do.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy hope is that if there are kids being bullied \u2014 and there are \u2026 maybe by listening to this song and watching this video, they might just think it\u2019s not as bad,\u201d McCartney said in a statement. \u201c[They might think] that it\u2019s the kind of thing you can just stand up to and laugh off and get through.\u201d<\/p>\n

McCartney is bolstering his message by partnering with the nonprofit organization Creative Visions in a campaign using the hashtag #WhoCaresIDo. Its goal is to give people tools, through its network of experts, to learn how to treat others with empathy and compassion. \u201cMillions of people around the world feel silenced, subjugated \u2014 bullied \u2014 and believe that no one cares,\u201d Creative Visions Founder Kathy Eldon said in a statement.\u00a0\u201cOur intention with this campaign is to put the power of the song to work and inspire us to show up and care \u2014 and let others know that we do care.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an interview with the BBC<\/a> earlier this year, McCartney said \u201cWho Cares\u201d was inspired by another pop star. \u201cI was actually thinking about Taylor Swift and her relationship to her young fans and how it\u2019s sort of a sisterly thing,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd I was imagining talking to one of these young fans and saying, \u2018Have you ever been bullied? Do you get bullied?\u2019 Then I say, \u2018Who cares about the idiots? Who cares about all this? Who cares about you? Well\u2026 I do.’\u201d<\/p>\n
