Singer Suki Waterhouse is on quite the roll leading up to the release of her second studio album, Memoir of a Sparklemuffin. For the past year, Waterhouse has teased her fans with singles from the upcoming project and continues to delight with each track. With the album set to drop later this week, Suki Waterhouse again treated her fans by releasing the chaos-filled music video for the track 'Model, Actress, Whatever.'
The video centers around an actress named Suki (played by Suki Waterhouse of course) on set having trouble finding the inspiration for her role. The backstory pairs well with the creative lyricism within Waterhouse's storytelling. The film director of the project, played by Chet Collins, hammers the point of the track title. Suki Waterhouse started as a model and has since transitioned to a rising film career over the past few years. Known for their stoic and emotionless demeanor, the film director berates Suki about that model trait. "You're doing it again! With the face!" he shouts, reminding her they aren't at London Fashion Week.
Waterhouse has had enough as she grows tired of the film director's commands and decides to set ablaze the film set. Finally finding her voice and embracing her true self, the set is thrown in disarray. Waterhouse tosses her overpriced milkshake in the director's face and storms off-set, leaving everyone in absolute chaos. Back in her car, fans are treated to a sweet refreshing cameo of the popular kombucha brand, SYNERGY Raw.
Mirroring the singer's battles with labels and imposter syndrome, the video is much deeper than what's on the surface. The heart of the music video is Suki Waterhouse's concern for how she's viewed in public and how it affects her as an overall artist. The video speaks to how you don't have to live and die by the labels placed upon you and rise above them.
'Model, Actress, Whatever' music video is out now.
