Ciara - "I Bet" [Music Video Premiere!]
We finally have a video.
R&B singer Ciara premiered last night (March 9) the official music video for her new single “I Bet”, from her upcoming album “Jackie", which she released back in January. Directed by Hannah Lux Davis, the “I Bet” clip was first premiered on Mario Lopez’ ‘Extra’ and then immediately made its way onto VEVO.
Ciara is a pretty ballerina, a toned gymnast and a fierce lady in black, all at once in the “I Bet” music video. It’s a rather simple visual with no storyline but just our girl CC performing the sad R&B ballad before the Hannah Lux Davis camera serving raw emotions, flawless hair, stunning face, and perfect body language. I mean, with all of this, was a storyline really necessary? Hell no. I'm actually quite pleased with this video treatment. A storyline with Ciara portraying the story of “I Bet” (a Future look-alike would’ve been required) would’ve been just boring. She only needs to serve body, dance moves, and face to make any MV a killer one. She’s one stunning lady.
I'm a fan of "I Bet", I think it's a beautiful sad song, very relatable, and I'm glad it's doing a fine job on radio, but it truly was already needing a "push" as it was getting a little stalled now on the charts. The music video will be that needed "push". In fact, I'm so loving the video I think I will purchase "I Bet” again on iTunes!
