and i’m gonna answer as many as i can 💜
a lot of u guys have been asking me questions about how the video was made and i wanted to tell u few cool things u may not kno about it…
1. snoop surprised me and made a death row chain and gave it to me the day of the video shoot
i went to a BTS concert and was completely blown away… and i made it my life goal to do a song with BTS… i first worked with snoop dogg on california girls but hadn’t worked with him in so long… so it was amazing to do it all together
#AskBenny
its so easy to work with them bc they do everything perfectly the first time they try…. its too hard to choose my favorite BTS song bc all of them are so good !!!
#AskBenny
they are some of the kindest most hard working people i have ever gotten to work with… their work ethic is unmatched and seeing them live is something every person reading this needs to do immediately… guys i will try to keep this short… u know u work on something for so long
when i was in a room with them i was so nervous… like i was a little kid again… waiting for an autograph… they made me feel young… they made me feel excited… they made me believe… we chase those highs everyday… and they have the ability to give that to so many people...
when we first wrote “lonely” the world was a very different place... soon after it took on a whole new meaning i never thought it would... the first time i worked with justin bieber was in 2009... he was so young... so talented... the hair... i mean the FUCKING HAIR!!!!
“blood sweat and tears” i immediately fell in love with BTS.. last year i went to one of their concerts… and i was lucky enough to meet them… that is where my OBSESSION began… ive gotten to work w so many amazing artists and meet so many influential people but for some reason
and then its finally out in the world… its like ur baby… and u have no idea what anyone is going to think… but when i woke up seeing all ur messages and support is why we do this… the BTS ARMYs dedication is unlike anything i have ever seen !!! i am honored and humbled to be
those things didnt happen where im from and the possibility seemed so far away… i just want thank u guys for making my 6 year old selfs dreams come true… i dont know how i can ever repay u… im actually tearing up writing this… love u
accepted by u guys !!! i didnt know what i was going to do when i was a kid… i wouldnt say i was lost bc i always knew i wanted to be a musician but i didnt know how to make it a reality…
“california gurls”… his name is snoop dogg and he is a fuckin legend !!! its like no matter what era or how old u r snoop has touched u… whether its with his music or his infectious personality… he is truly one of the best guys i know… anyways when i saw the video for
2. my friend
@cloheyyy
hand made the entire outfit to match jimin’s from the dynamite video bc most of the clothes were discontinued… she literally stayed up all night hand painting the shoes hours before the shoot
3. yes that’s my real mom in the video
4. there used to be a scene with me and my brother fighting over the tv remote bc he wanted to watch another video instead of BTS (what was he thinking ???)
yes ! and u guys got so close to actually finding it… i feel like if i left it up for a few more hours u prolly would’ve found it… the ARMY is so smart !!!
#AskBenny
5. yes that’s my car in the video and yes there is still cake smeared in the vents near the windshield… but now it kinda just smells like eggs and poop
6. that’s my friend ben who acted in and directed the video… he created my fav tv show high maintenance on hbo and we got to work together on DAVE and became best buds so i felt very comfty makin this video with him… even tho i was so embarrassed cuz i suck at dancing
can’t believe
