Benson Boone, still rocking that skintight jumpsuit, drops new ‘Mr. Electric Blue' music video
After making quite the splash at the Grammys where he backflipped in a body-hugging, baby blue sequined jumpsuit, Benson Boone is back with new music and a very tongue-in-cheek music video. The singer and former 'American Idol' contestant released his second studio album 'American Heart' on Friday, paired with the record's fourth single 'Mr. Electric Blue,' with an accompanying music video that sees him in various getups that are more than a little self-deprecating. The clip opens with Boone, wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with the phrase 'One Hit Wonder,' being called into the office of a smarmy agent – identified by a deskplate as 'Benson Boone Agent' and played by Jack LaFrantz, Boone's sometime songwriting partner. The agent breaks the news to the 22-year-old crooner that 'we put all our money in moonbeam ice cream and the backflip, and it's done absolutely horrible,' a reference to one of Boone's earlier singles on the record, 'Mystical Magical.' 'We need something new. We need a new gimmick!' the agent exclaims. 'Maybe, good songwriting?' 'You know I can't do that,' Boone replies. He is then informed by the agent that he 'owes' the label $10 million and spends the rest of the music video doing odd jobs to raise funds. The song itself is fun and pleasantly retro-feeling, with Boone donning shirts that say things like 'Inauthentic' as he walks dogs or mows a giant lawn. At one point, he takes to helping advertise 'Discount Jumpsuits,' holding a sign that on one side says '100% Artificial.' He does this while wearing said baby blue jumpsuit that famously turned heads at the Grammys earlier this year. In another scenario, a group of kids trash his music to his face while he serves moonbeam ice cream from a truck. Although upbeat, the 'Mr. Electric Blue' music video confronts criticisms seemingly plucked from the bowels of social media comments, like with the shot of a bumper sticker that proclaims, 'mustaches are lame.' It all builds to a crescendo when Boone, who has taken a job as a pool boy, is shut down when he sees a sign forbidding backflips. He's clearly in on the joke, and it's flipping fun.

Barmaid Carla Ingham had heard the rapper, 48, was out shopping with his 30-year-old wife from a workmate. She ended up filming the US star and his wife, who was wearing a black bodysuit and sliders. Carla said: 'My workmate Lucas first spotted him heading into the supermarket next door. 'So I started filming myself walking into the shop. 'I called out.' It's been reported that Kanye and Bianca are currently staying on the Spanish Island for six weeks. Bianca and Kanye, who were believed to have split after the Grammys stunt, seem to be going strong. The pair have been spotted all over Spain, with Kanye allegedly receiving treatment for his mental health in Mallorca after his vile antisemitic and hateful outbursts. Bianca Censori sticks her tongue in Kanye West's mouth during rare PDA moment in romantic sunset video--- The couple were last seen hand in hand at a McDonald's in Barcelona. Their sighting comes after it was revealed that Bianca has branched out with her own career path away from husband Kanye. The brunette beauty worked for Kanye while she was an architect at Yeezy in 2020, but hasn't been in the profession for the last few years. Instead, Bianca has posed around the world in shocking barely-there outfits, such as her naked dress at the Grammys in February. Kanye, who now goes by Ye, has been criticized for controlling his wife's every movement, but it looks like she's now going it alone. The U.S. Sun can reveal Bianca has set up her first U.S. company, Bianca Censori Inc. It was registered last month with the state of California. She is listed as CEO and secretary.
