Music video
The music video, directed by Henry Scholfield, was released on
YouTube on 18 December 2013 and features
Stromae partly dressed as a woman. The track shows the life of female Stromae, annoyed as she is with the attitude of men and what they do. Throughout the video, Stromae depicts various stereotypical remarks women make about men, accompanied by the non-verbal cues the other characters in the video make. However, when he switches to his other side that represents men, various stereotypical remarks that men make about women and relationships get expressed as well. The lighting effects in the video (green light for male Stromae, pink light for female Stromae) aid the interpretation of the song. The video has received over 416 million views as of December 2023.[1]
