Music Video of the Day: When I’m Gone by Katy Perry, feat. Alesso (2022, dir by Hannah Lux Davis)


This is a fun video and I think we need more fun in the world.

The robot in the video was provided by Boston Dynamics and was nicknamed “Nugget” by Perry.  (The robot’s actual name was Spot.  If I ever get a robot, I’m naming it Fritz after director Fritz Lang.)  The video itself premiered on ESPN because …. well, why not?  Where else was it going to premiere?  Rob Dyrdek’s not in the video so it’s not like it could have premiered on MTV or any of its affiliated stations.  This was the first music video to ever premiere live on ESPN and, as far as I can tell, it might also be the only one.  There’s nothing wrong with being unique.

Enjoy!
