Beyoncé - Pretty Hurts - Behind The Scenes

Watch behind-the-scenes footage of Beyonce's forthcoming video for "Pretty Hurts."

"Perfection is the disease of a nation."

Catch a BTS glimpse of the upcoming video for Beyonce's "Pretty Hurts," directed by Melina Matsoukas. The track in question is included on her most recent self-titled album, which is available here. 

"The concept behind the video is really a behind-the-scenes look into society's take on beauty," says Matsoukas. "How [beauty] doesn't bring you happiness, and it doesn't move you forward in life ... and that it's really finding yourself that brings true happiness."

No doubt. Not only is there a positive message here, the video includes a cameo from Harvey Keitel as well, which is an added bonus in our book. Stay tuned for the release.
