I don’t know if it’s the bubbles or the body-clinging clothing, but whatever it is, thank God for its existence. It saved Britney Spears (in “Everytime”), Kelly Clarkson, and now Ashanti from horrible fates—and where would we be without them? Ashanti’s video is an upgrade, but ultimately, it’s nothing new.
