For the past few days, I have been listening to music from the early's 2000s. These songs reflected my childhood. I remember getting Vanessa Carlton's CD in grade school and listing to it constantly. I remember making up my own lyrics to the chorus of Enrique Iglesias' hit,"Hero." While I listened to the music of these artists all the time, I rarely watched their music videos. This week curiosity led to my watch the music videos of the following list of songs, and I realized that famous actors and actresses are featured as the love interests.
1. Brendan Fehr in Vanessa Carlton's "Pretty Baby"
Any Roswell fans out there? The music video provided me a different meaning from what I believe the song was about. And Fehr plays a big part in that--especially in the ending.
2. Jennifer Love Hewitt in Enrique Iglesias’ “Hero”
If you are a fan of Hewitt's "Ghost Whisper," then you will appreciate this music.
3. Katherine Heigl in Josh Kelley's "Only You"
This music video actually started Katherine and Josh's relationship. In an interview, he proposed to Katherine years later in the same apartment where the video was shot.
4. Milo Ventimiglia in Fergie's "Big Girls Don't Cry"
I remember when this song was a hit I was so surprised to find "Jess" from Gilmore Girls as the love interest.
5. Shiri Appleby in Gavin DeGraw's "I Don't Want To Be"
As Garvin's first hit, it is a pretty catch song. I still can't believe I never watched the trailer until this week.
There are so many more music videos from that time frame that feature famous actors and actresses. However, i hope this list made you reminisce on your childhood memories. If you are curious like me, watch the music videos to other childhood songs.
