There’s “Leave Britney Alone” Chris Crocker, “Chocolate Rain” Tay Zonday, “Numa Numa dance” fatty, Star Wars Kid, evolution of dance guy, the “smart” South Carolina beauty pageant contestant and many more are all lip-syncing to Weezer’s latest lyrics.

Special effects include lightsaber duels, the dramatic chipmunk, daft hands & bodies, and Mentos/Coke bottle fountains.

A cameo appearance by Britney Spears’ ex-husband Kevin Federline as the producer of all this “talent” in the studio is very fitting indeed.

BTW, 7/10 of the top videos on YouTube's all time list are music videos from bands that posted their own stuff. Add the fact that Weezer is tapping into YouTube culture, and you've got the next hit. Love it.
