I agree it was totally funny, and I don’t think the announcers were being mean either. I guess later on when the video went viral there were all kinds of people commenting who were all bent out of shape about it.

Nobody was truly outraged though. I didn’t even think the men were mean at all. It was just a ridiculous and funny situation, and how dumb selfie taking looks from an outsider’s perspective. I don’t think anybody was that angry or even bullying the girls. It was a silly video of just how stupid technology is making

See...people like CrazyWater here are the problem. As a musician, it is quite obvious that there was no ripping off going on. I doubt Pharrell even took any inspiration at all from Gaye's song.

I have to ask, at what point do you say, just take a picture? The skill is amazing but it really just seems like these kinds of artists are being celebrated for incredible technical skill. Where is the the creativity? If they are just reproducing a picture from a photo (no matter how real) it gets old real quick. No

They're totally boring, because it's all about the technique and the detail, and the composition and styling is super boring. I sorta like the one with the girl laying on the ground in the field, because she looks like she's dead, which makes it interesting to me. This guy is crazy-talented when it comes to details,
