Five years ago, Betty Who<\/a>\u2019s first single, \u201cSomebody Loves You\u201d was the soundtrack to one of the most endearing flash mob marriage proposals<\/a> when it was used by two gay men in a Home Depot. Now the pop star pays homage to that viral moment of pop culture history with the video for the first single from her new record, Betty<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Betty Who appears to advocate for\u00a0of all \u2014 including extraterrestrial (or interspecies) acceptance \u2014 since her lover in the video is either an alien or a fish-man a la The Shape of Water<\/em>. The couple smile and dance in the street, at a wedding and in their bedroom with lots of other shiny, happy people to cheer them on. \u201cI don\u2019t want perfect, I want you,\u201d Who sings as the couple try to find domestic bliss.<\/p>\n

As Who stated previously of the track: \u201cThe whole point of the song is about letting go of how hard life (and especially love) can be at times and remembering why you do it in the first place. Love is never going to be perfect. Sometimes it will be easy, most times it will be hard, but all the time it\u2019s worth it because, when you\u2019re with the right person, you are willing to work for it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The pop singer is currently supporting Panic! at the Disco on their Pray for the Wicked Tour, which concludes on Valentine\u2019s Day, February 14th in Anaheim, Calif. Her album drops February 15th and she immediately joins Kesha on her Kesha Cruise: Kesha\u2019s Weird & Wonderful Rainbow Ride from February 17-21 in the Bahamas.<\/p>\n

This is Betty Who\u2019s third album and her first as an independent artist.<\/a> She was with RCA until 2017, and she began staking her claim as an independent artist last year with the EP Betty Pt. 1. In early 2018, she recorded a cover of Wildlife\u2019s \u201cAll Things (Just Keep Getting Better)\u201d as the new theme song for Netflix\u2019s Queer Eye<\/em> reboot.<\/p>\n
